The broadband near-infrared (NIR) phosphor converted light emitting diode (NIR pc-LED) has garnered unprecedented attention due to its crucial role in NIR applications. However, there remains a scarcity of efficient broadband NIR luminescence materials capable of emitting NIR light with wavelengths greater than 800 nm. This study reports the synthesis, crystal structure and photoluminescence (PL) properties for double perovskite Sr 2 ScTaO 6 :Cr 3+ phosphors which exhibit a broadband NIR emission in the 650–1250 nm range, peaking at∼815 nm with the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 161 nm. The observed broadband emission arises from two distinct Cr 3+ centers, namely Sc 3+ and Ta 5+ octahedral sites within the Sr 2 ScTaO 6 structure, as demonstrated by luminescence and decay kinetic analysis. A significant enhancement of the thermal stability and a remarkable broadening of the FWHM (from 161 to 275 nm) are achieved by employing Yb 3+ co-doping strategy. The efficient energy transfer from Cr 3+ to Yb 3+ was confirmed through emission and excitation spectra, as well as luminescence decay measurements. Finally, Sr 2 ScTaO 6 :Cr 3+ -Yb 3+ phosphor was integrated with a 470 nm blue LED chip to fabricate a NIR pc-LED device, and its potential application in night vision was evaluated.

Broadband short-wave near-infrared (NIR) phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (pc-LEDs) have been attracting keen interest for miniature NIR spectroscopy, while still lacking sufficient novel broadband NIR-emitting phosphors. Herein, we report a novel MgNb2O6:Cr3+ polycrystalline phosphor with a broad NIR emission band centered at 970 nm and a large full-width at half-maximum of approximately 155 nm under excitation of bluish-green light at around 515 nm. The optimized phosphor MgNb2O6:1%Cr3+ features a high internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of ∼85.5% and a moderate external QE of 25.2%. The fluorescence properties determined by two distorted hexa-coordination octahedral sites (i.e. [MgO6] and [NbO6]), low crystal field strength (Dq/B ∼ 1.65), and Cr3+-doping concentration were systematically investigated for comprehensive understanding of photophysical mechanisms. Besides, this broadband NIR phosphor MgNb2O6:Cr3+ exhibits a moderate thermal quenching of 21.4%@373 K for pc-LED application. An NIR pc-LED self-built by combining the optimal phosphor with a commercial cyan of ∼515 nm exhibits an NIR output power increase from 3.19 to 11.38 mW as the drive current is varied from 40 to 220 mA. With the help of this prototype pc-LED device, multiple applications were successfully performed to clearly recognize blood vessel distributions in the human finger, penetrate a plastic cap, and distinguish multi-color text. Undoubtedly, further development of such broadband short-wave NIR-emitting phosphors will make novel pc-LED devices for significant applications in biomedical imaging, nondestructive safety detection, intelligent identification, etc.

Phosphor-converted light-emitting diode (pc-LED) technology, as artificial lighting source, is the most promising option for providing power for plant growth in future smart agricultural factories. However, developing red phosphors with the desired emission spectral range and good thermal stability is still experimental. In this study, an Mn 4+ -doped BaZrGe 3 O 9 red-emitting phosphor with remarkable thermal stability is reported. The red emission, spanning the wavelength range of 600–800 nm, matches the absorption range of chlorophyll a, b and phytochrome (P r ). Its good thermal stability at 150 °C is in addition to its emission intensity, which is 81.7 % of its room-temperature intensity. Co-doping with Ca 2+ contributes to a 1.7-fold increase in the red emission intensity at room temperature. The encapsulation of the present phosphor onto UV LED chips produces red emitting LED devices, which can be used for garlic and corn cultivation. The implementation reveals that the six-hour artificial red light illumination supplement is the most effective and significant means to promote garlic and corn growth. The as-obtained red-emitting phosphor may be a promising candidate for pc-LEDs promotion of crop growth in agricultural factories.

The effectiveness of near-infrared phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (NIR pc-LEDs) is primarily determined by the NIR phosphors. Unfortunately, there is still a shortage of effective broadband near-infrared luminescent materials which emit NIR light with wavelengths exceeding 800 nm. Herein, Cr 3+ doped SrGe 4 O 9 phosphors were prepared by a high-temperature solid-state reaction. The phosphor exhibits a wide NIR emission spanning from 650 to 1250 nm, with the center located at approximately 846 nm. It demonstrates a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 190 nm and a quantum yield of 66.9 % when excited by the blue light at 442 nm. When subjected to 373 K, the luminescence intensity of the phosphor remains above 80 % of the value at room temperature . The application in night vision and biological imaging have been realized by the prepared SrGe 3.99 O 9 : 1%Cr 3+ phosphor combined with a commercial 440 nm blue chip.

The rapid development of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopic techniques has greatly stimulated the discovery of novel broadband NIR-emitting phosphors as advanced light sources. Herein, a novel double-perovskite phosphor La 2 MgHfO 6 :Cr 3+ /Yb 3+ that displays ultra-broadband NIR emissions with a full-width at half maximum (FWHM) of 333 nm is reported. The remarkable luminescence property stems from the multiple crystallographic sites, relatively weak crystal field, and efficient Cr 3 -to-Yb 3+ energy transfer (ET). The site occupation of Cr 3+ is elaborately verified by the Rietveld refinement and first-principles calculation. By controlling the ET process, the internal/external quantum efficiency (IQE/EQE), bandwidth, and thermal stability of NIR emissions are substantially improved. The as-prepared phosphors are further integrated into a miniaturized NIR light-emitting diode (LED) package, demonstrating superior performance in rapid nondestructive detection of structural failure in thin electronic cables. The results described here provide a novel pointcut for designing broadband NIR-emitting phosphors with desired optical properties toward applications in industrial inspection and medical diagnosis.

We developed a new ligand and adjuvant dual-assisted room temperature colloidal method for the synthesis of highly luminescent and stable Cs4PbBr6 nanoparticles, in which acetone, oleamine (OM) and oleic acid (OA) were used as precursors, while water and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were used as adjuvants. In this process, we explored the influencing factors of process parameters (such as the amount of water, the standing time of precursors, and the molar ratio of raw materials), and found that Cs4PbBr6 synthesized by water + DMSO can not only change the morphology and promote crystallization but also improve the lattice strain, reduce the lattice defects and optimize the passivation effect, so as to improve the luminescence properties. Simultaneously, we also found that the pc-LED made of Cs4PbBr6 can still emit bright green light after 4344 h of operation, showing excellent stability and making it promising for solid-state lighting application. This method also provides an important reference value for solving the hydrolysis property of perovskites.

Near-infrared phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (NIR pc-LEDs), a widely used NIR light source, are typically prepared by sealing the NIR phosphor powder and an LED chip with epoxy resin. One issue that NIR pc-LEDs frequently encounter is the aging and deterioration of epoxy resin over time, which leads to self-absorption and a sharp decline in emission efficiency. Here, we report the synthesis of a chemically stable NIR luminescent material composed of Cr3+-doped Ba2NaNb5O15 nanocrystals measuring 10–15 nm, with Cr3+ ions located in the octahedral centers of the nanocrystals. Under 460 nm light excitation, the transparent glass-ceramic exhibited a broadband NIR emission in the range of 600–1400 nm, which originated from the electronic transition of Cr3+ from the excited state of 4T2 to the ground state of 4A2. The emission peak was located at ∼810 nm, the FWHM was ∼230 nm, and the internal quantum efficiency reached ∼0.81%. We constructed a stable NIR pc-LED device using optimized transparent NIR-emitting glass-ceramics and a commercially available blue LED chip, demonstrating its promising application in night-vision lighting. Our study provides a basis for the preparation of transparent glass-ceramic-based NIR pc-LED devices as an improved alternative for solid-state illumination.

The development of phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (pc-LEDs) in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000–1700 nm) represents an important, newly emerging, and dynamic field in NIR spectroscopy. Unfortunately, lacking efficient NIR-II phosphors that can be excited by commercial blue LED chips impedes NIR spectroscopy applications. Herein, a donor–acceptor strategy is developed by introducing Cr 3+ sensitizers to greatly enhance the blue-light excitation efficiency of NIR-II-emitting MgO:Cr 3+ ,Ni 2+ phosphor. Consequently, a high-efficiency blue-light-excitable MgO:Cr 3+ ,Ni 2+ phosphor that gives a NIR-II emission at 1335 nm with a full width at half-maximum (FWHM) of 235 nm, is demonstrated. The product has a high internal quantum efficiency of 92.7 % and excellent thermal stability, maintaining 83.0 % of the room temperature emission intensity at 150 °C. Excitingly, the fabricated NIR-II pc-LED device shows a high NIR-II optical power (27.4 mW@350 mA). The performances of the achieved NIR-II pc-LED are almost the best results until now. Additionally, multifunctional applications including nondestructive detection and anti-counterfeiting of the NIR-II light source are demonstrated. These results are pretty crucial for the further development of NIR-II spectroscopy and imaging technology.

Near-infrared phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (NIR pc-LEDs) are compact light sources of great interest for NIR spectroscopy applications. Beyond typical Cr 3+ -activated NIR-emitting phosphors, there exists a strong demand for Cr 3+ -free alternatives with high efficiency and broadband emission to rich the landscape of NIR luminescent materials and extend their range of application fields. Here, we report a series of Fe 3+ -activated Ca 3 Ga 2 Sn 3 O 12 garnet-type phosphors exhibiting broadband NIR emission in the 650–1000 nm range attributed to 4 T 1 (G) → 6 A 1 (S) transition, with a maximum at 754 nm and a FWHM of 89 nm upon UV excitation. The spectroscopic results were analyzed according to the Tanabe-Sugano theory from which the crystal field parameter D q and Racah parameters B and C were obtained for the octahedrally coordinated Fe 3+ ion. Notably, the NIR persistent luminescence lasting over 1 h was detected following UV or X-ray irradiation. The possible mechanism involving electron traps was proposed to explain the observed persistent luminescence. Furthermore, a NIR pc-LED was fabricated by coating synthesized phosphor on a UV chip, and its performance was evaluated to assess its potential suitability as a NIR light source. Our discovery of novel type of nontoxic Fe 3+ -activated broadband NIR luminescence phosphors with efficient NIR persistent luminescence paves the way for discovering Cr 3+ -free multifunctional NIR luminescence materials, thereby expanding their application possibilities.

Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has garnered substantial attention owing to its diverse merits and widespread applications. Meanwhile developing phosphors with broadband and efficient NIR emission is still an enormous challenge for constructing NIR light sources. Herein, enhanced and broadened NIR luminescence of Gd2−xAlxGaSbO7 (G2−xAxGSO):y%Cr3+ phosphors can be realized via modifying the crystal field environment of Cr3+ induced by Al3+ → Gd3+ cation substitution. Upon blue light irradiation, G1.4A0.6GSO:4%Cr3+ exhibits a broadband luminescence ranging from 650 to 1000 nm with a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 136 nm, excellent thermal stability, and a tiny chromaticity shift. Through incorporating the resulting powders into a blue light-emitting diode (LED) chip, a NIR phosphor-converted (pc) LED with a high output power of 62.99 mW and a photoelectric conversion efficiency of 13.38% was manufactured. The fabricated pc-LED shows application potential in nondestructive food analysis. These findings confirm that the as-synthesized G2−xAxGSO:Cr3+ phosphor is a promising candidate for application in NIR pc-LEDs.

Near-infrared phosphor converted light-emitting diodes (NIR pc-LEDs), as a state-of-the-art type of NIR sources, are finding multifaceted applications, where phosphor is a crucial component. In hope to provide new choices for NIR lighting, we synthesized in this work the two series of Ruddlesden -Popper type layered perovskite phosphors of SrLa 2 Al 2- x O 7 : x Cr 3+ ( x = 0–0.02) and SrLa 2- y Gd y Al 1.984 O 7 :0.016Cr 3+ ( y = 0–2), followed by detailed structure and luminescence investigation. SrLa 2 Al 2- x O 7 : x Cr 3+ was found to emit ∼700–800 nm NIR light under UV excitation and be able to maintain ∼54.3 % of its room temperature intensity at 423 K, which is remarkably higher than those (∼25–30 %@423 K) of the Mn 4+ activated perovskite NIR phosphors. Luminescence regulation was achieved by substituting La 3+ with Gd 3+ , and it was revealed that Gd 3+ may act as a sensitizer to significantly enhance Cr 3+ luminescence (∼346 % at 77 K) through Gd 3+ → Cr 3+ energy transfer, which was confirmed by spectral and fluorescence lifetime analysis. The observed spectral features and the influence of Gd 3+ were rationalized by considering crystal structure, local coordination, and crystal field. Finally, an NIR pc-LED device showing strong ∼700–900 nm luminescence was fabricated to show potential application of the phosphor in night vision and plant lighting.
