Near-infrared (NIR) persistent luminescence (PersL) materials have recently evoked considerable interest in the field of biomedicine, but the choices of efficient emitters for NIR PersL phosphors are rather limited. Herein, we report a new class of Fe3+-activated NIR PersL phosphor based on the LiGaO2 host, which exhibits an intense NIR PersL at around 748 nm and possesses an ultra-long PersL time of much longer than 26 h. The optical properties of this phosphor as well as the trapping and de-trapping processes, the trap characteristics, and the underlying PersL mechanism are comprehensively studied by means of photoluminescence (PL), PersL, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), thermoluminescence (TL), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies (XPS). It was found that the NIR PersL in this material is closely related to the oxygen vacancies. Furthermore, the penetration experiments and cytotoxicity tests of the biological tissue show that this material has great potential for bioimaging applications. Our achievement in the case of nontoxic Fe3+-activated LiGaO2 phosphors lays the foundation for the future design of Cr3+-free PersL phosphors with efficient NIR PersL towards versatile bioapplications.

Tunable long persistent luminescence (LPL) phosphor materials have great potential for optoelectronic cryptographic applications. However, the mainstream techniques of modulating LPL generally have the characteristics of complex preparation processes, demanding crystal field environments, or expensive dopant ions, which restrict large-scale commercial application. Herein, we develop a simple, high-efficiency, and low-cost strategy to optimize the LPL of LiGaO2(LGO):Cu2+ by changing the sintering time to regulate the degree of crystal structure distortion. The Cu2+ as charge compensation will substantially enhance the emission intensity of LGO by a factor of 11.02 originating from the appropriate ionic size and coordination mode. Besides, the LPL time of LGO:Cu2+ can be extended effectively to 2 h by adjusting the sintering temperature and time (900 °C@24 h). The extension mechanism is that Li and Ga can be substituted for each other more easily and induce crystal structure distortion due to the special crystal structure of LGO, resulting in an optimal trap concentration in LGO:Cu2+. Thus, our findings provide a simple way to modulate long persistent luminescence and further consider their potential impact on optical information encryption.

Polyethylene oxide (PEO) electrolytes have been extensively researched in solid-state batteries due to their excellent interface compatibility, high flexibility, and ease of machining. However, its practical application is still hindered by low ionic conductivity (∼10 −6 S cm −1 at room temperature) and a narrow electrochemical stability window. To settle these shortcomings, a PEO-based composite electrolyte enabled by active LiGaO 2 filler and 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethyl sulfonyl)imide (AMIm-TFSI) ionic liquid is constructed for lithium metal batteries (LMBs). Benefiting from the synergistic effect of LiGaO 2 filler and AMIm-TFSI ionic liquid, this composite electrolyte not only enhances the ionic conductivity (2.08 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ) and electrochemical window (5.2 V vs. Li + /Li) but also reduce the interfacial impedance. Furthermore, the Li//Li symmetric cells achieved an ultralong lithium deposition/stripping cycle over 1000 h at 0.1 mA cm −2 . The assembled solid-state LiFePO 4 //Li cell exhibit superior rate capability (164.2, 158.5, 154.8, 148.6, 119.4 mAh g −1 at 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, and 2 C, respectively) and excellent cycling stability (147.3 mAh g −1 after 300 cycles at 0.2C). The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis reveals that the composite electrolytes in situ form an inorganic-rich solid electrolyte interface layer. This work provides guidance on designing superior organic-inorganic composite electrolytes for LMBs.

An extensive experimental study of trivalent iron (Fe3+) ions in orthorhombic lithium gallate nanocrystals was undertaken. Various spectroscopic methods, such as Raman spectroscopy, extended X-ray absorption fine structure, the Mössbauer effect, electron paramagnetic resonance, photoluminescence, thermoluminescence, and cathodoluminescence were used to investigate the synthesized phosphor. This study revealed the existence of multiple Fe3+sites, out of which the tetrahedral sites are preferentially occupied. Extensive optical studies showed that the Fe3+doped lithium gallate phosphor is a promising candidate for various luminescence and thermoluminescence-related applications in the near-infrared regime.
