Non-contact optical temperature measurement has attracted intense attention in recent years due to its advantages of high speed and high safety. In this work, a Lu2WO6:Er3+ phosphor was successfully prepared by a solid state reaction. The effective energy transfer from the [WO6]6− group to Er3+ was proved using the emission spectra and fluorescence lifetime measurements, with an estimated transfer efficiency of 51%. Benefiting from the self-luminescence of the [WO6]6− group, optical thermometry was established based on the fluorescence intensity ratio of [WO6]6− emission to Er3+ emission. Remarkably, strong emission color variability from blue to green was observed under 320 nm UV excitation as the temperature increases from 298 K to 548 K, while an opposite trend from green to cyan is observed under 378 nm UV excitation. The maximum relative sensitivity (SR Max) is 3.37% K−1 (298 K), which is highly superior to most of the previously reported values.

Developing low cost and efficient strategy to eliminate volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are quite urgent and challenging. Herein, CeO 2 nanoparticles co-doped with Yb 3+ and Er 3+ were immobilized on attapulgite clay (ATP) for photothermal catalytic oxidation of toluene. The CeO 2 :Yb 3+ , Er 3+ /ATP exhibited outstanding catalytic activity with low T 90 of 295 °C (temperature at 90% degradation), satisfactory stability and highly water resistance. The enhanced photothermal catalytic performance can be attributed to the optimal introduction of Yb 3+ and Er 3+ , which promoted the up-conversion of near-infrared light (NIR) to visible light increasing the light utilization. The defects caused by Yb 3+ /Er 3+ doping facilitated the adsorption of O 2 , while the active oxygen species generated from the defects and the photoinduced reactive species not only favored the oxidation of toluene in photothermal catalytic process, but also accelerated the reoxidation of reduced catalyst. Notably ATP support provided large specific surface area and abundant adsorption sites for toluene molecules to promote the deep oxidation and hindered the deactivation of catalysts caused by the accumulation of intermediates. In-situ DRIFTS test revealed that the alkoxide and benzoate appeared as the main intermediates, which can be deeply oxidized under light irradiation. Current work provides a new alternative for photothermal catalytic degradation of VOCs.

The Er 3+ doped double perovskite Ba 2 CaWO 6 crystal is a promising ratiometric thermometer based on the fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) of transitions from 2 H 11/2 and 4 S 3/2 to the lowered 4 I 15/2 level. However, the Ca 2+ vacancy defect caused by the charge difference between rare-earth ions and the substituted alkaline-earth ions gives rise to the non-radiative probability and limits the thermal sensitivity. Here, the up-conversion luminescence and thermometric performance of Er 3+ , Yb 3+ doped Ba 2 CaWO 6 are tuned by tri-doping with alkaline ions. The Ca 2+ vacancy defect can be eliminated by the introduction of Na + , which occupies the Ca 2+ site when it is doped into Ba 2 CaWO 6 with Er 3+ and Yb 3+ . On the contrary, the doping of Cs + into Ba 2 CaWO 6 with Er 3+ and Yb 3+ enhances the defect concentration because it occupies the site of Ba 2+ . Thus, the tri-doping of Na + reduces the non-radiative probability and enhances the quantum efficiency of Er 3+ , leading to the improvement of the thermometric sensitivity of Ba 2 CaWO 6 . As a result, we get an excellent thermometric Ba 2 CaWO 6 :8%Yb 3+ ,3.5%Er 3+ ,6%Na + powder with a luminescence lifetime of 515 μs and maximum thermal sensitivity ( S r ) of 1.45%/K, which is more than three times higher than that of the BCWO:Er 3+ powder.

Long afterglow phosphors have garnered significant attention for their ability to emit light long after excitation ceases. Afterglow emission relies on metastable trap levels within the bandgap of the host materials. Effective trap engineering strategies to optimize traps are critical in determining the afterglow performance. In this study, we investigate the codoping of Bi 3+ and Er 3+ into LiTaO 3 to enhance afterglow performance. Through high-temperature solid-state synthesis, a series of LiTaO 3 :x%Bi 3+ , y%Er 3+ (x = 0 or 0.5%, y = 0.1–4.0%) samples were prepared successfully. Structural characterization confirmed the successful incorporation of Bi 3+ and Er 3+ into the Li⁺ sites without disrupting the host lattice. Photoluminescence studies revealed that Bi³⁺ codoping significantly enhances the green emission of Er³⁺, with optimal performance achieved at 1.0% Er 3+ doping. Thermoluminescence (TL) analysis demonstrated the presence of traps with the depth of 0.748 eV, enabling prolonged afterglow emission at room temperature. The afterglow mechanism involves charge carrier storage in traps under UV excitation, followed by thermal release and recombination at luminescent centers, facilitated by energy transfer from Bi 3+ to Er 3+ . This work provides a strategy for designing a long afterglow phosphor through controlled codoping, offering insights into trap engineering and energy transfer processes in perovskite-based luminescent materials.

Luminescence-based thermometry offers a viable approach for remote temperature detection, benefiting from its non-invasive nature and superior precision. In the present research, a hydrothermal synthesis route was employed to obtain environmentally friendly Cs 2 NaScCl 6 double perovskite materials co-doped with Sb 3+ /Er 3+ ions. Spectroscopic analysis confirms that Sb 3+ incorporation facilitates the radiative decay of self-trapped excitons, leading to a notable increase in blue luminescence intensity across a wide wavelength range. Energy transfer analysis reveals that Er 3+ co-doping enables efficient STE → Er 3+ energy conversion, populating the 2 H 11/2 and 4 S 3/2 excited states which subsequently radiatively decay to the 4 I 15/2 ground state, yielding dual emission bands. The material exhibits notable temperature-dependent characteristics within the 298–473 K range, as evidenced by tracking the fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR = I 526 nm / I 551 nm ) of Er 3+ emissions at 526 nm and 551 nm. The achieved maximum relative sensitivity (S R ) reaches 1.40% K −1 with an absolute sensitivity (S A ) of 1.08% K −1 , highlighting its superior capability for high-precision temperature sensing. The findings indicate that the Sb 3+ /Er 3+ co-doped Cs 2 NaScCl 6 double perovskite holds great promise as a material for sensitive optical thermometry, with substantial potential for applications in non-contact temperature sensing.

Upconversion luminescent materials exhibit excellent near-infrared to visible conversion properties that make them crucial for optoelectronics , visible display devices, and biological labels. Herein, we report a high-quality Yb 3+ and Er 3+ co-doped Gd 3 Sc 2 Al 3 O 12 ( GSAG) single crystal which was grown successfully by the traditional Czochralski method with Er 3+ and Yb 3+ doping concentration of 1 at.% and 10 at.%, respectively. The structure parameters of the crystal were observed by the X-ray Rietveld refinement method. In addition, the transmission and upconversion emission properties of the crystal were analyzed at room temperature . The 940 nm excited upconversion energy transfer mechanism and dependence of the green-to-red upconversion intensity ratio ( I g/r ) on pump power were investigated. A dominant two-photon absorption process of the green and red upconversion emission bands were revealed in Yb,Er:GSAG crystal. The results indicate the crystal is a promising upconversion single crystalline material.

Lanthanide-doped upconversion (UC) nanomaterials with zero background auto-fluorescence are of extensive interest in optical fields. Here, a NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ @Zr-UiO-66 nanostructure was prepared by simultaneously encapsulating NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ nanoparticles (NPs) and promoting the nucleation of UiO-66 under solvothermal condition. Traditional nanosize-surface induced defects and grain boundaries of NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) were greatly minimized; enabling a highly efficient energy transfer confirmed by the prolonged fluorescence lifetime and enhanced UC emission of NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ @Zr-UiO-66 nanocomposite. The optical thermometry property of nanocomposite was investigated based on the fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) technique in the temperature range of 303–393 K. The maximum relative temperature sensitivities (S r ) were calculated to be 1.02 and 0.73% K −1 based on a pair of thermally coupled energy levels (TCLs) of ( 2 H 11/2 → 4 I 15/2 , 4 S 3/2 → 4 I 15/2 ) and another pair of non-thermally coupled energy levels (NTCLs) of ( 2 H 11/2 → 4 I 15/2 , 4 F 9/2 → 4 I 15/2 ), respectively. Besides, it exhibited effective internal optical heating property due to the thermal excitation between the two adjacent TCLs of 2 H 11/2 and 4 S 3/2 in NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ UCNPs as heated by increasing the laser power. This work demonstrates a feasible confined synthesis of NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ @Zr-UiO-66 nanocomposite with extreme UC emitting performance, and it holds great potential acting as both ratiometric thermometer and optical heater for multifunctional applications.

Lanthanide-doped up-conversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) provide a remote temperature sensing approach to monitoring biological microenvironments. In this research, the UCNPs of NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+@NaYF4:Yb3+, Nd3+ with hexagonal (β)-phase were synthesized and applied in cell temperature sensing as well as imaging after surface modification with meso-2, 3-dimercaptosuccinic acid. In the core–shell UCNPs, Yb3+ ions were introduced as energy transfer media between sensitizers of Nd3+ and activators of Er3+ to improve Er3+emission and prevent their quenching behavior due to multiple energy levels of Nd3+. Under the excitations of 808 nm and 980 nm lasers, the NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+@NaYF4:Yb3+, Nd3+ nanoparticles exhibited an efficient green band with two emission peaks at 525 nm and 545 nm, respectively, which originated from the transitions of 2H11/2 → 4I15/2 and 4S3/2 → 4I15/2 for Er3+ ions. We demonstrate that an occurrence of good logarithmic linearity exists between the intensity ratio of these two emission peaks and the reciprocal of the inside or outside temperature of NIH-3T3 cells. A better thermal stability is proved through temperature-dependent spectra with a heating–cooling cycle. The obtained viability of NIH-3T3 cells is greater than 90% after incubations of about 12 and 24 (h), and they possess a lower cytotoxicity of UCNPs. This work provides a method for monitoring the cell temperature and its living state from multiple dimensions including temperature response, cell images and visual up-conversion fluorescent color.

Upconverting materials excited by near-infrared light are getting attention due to their biological applications in cancer treatment. Er 3+ , Yb 3+ and Nd 3+ tri-doped LiLn(WO 4 ) 2 (Ln = Y/La/Gd) phosphors were synthesized via the typical solid-state method. LiGd(WO 4 ) 2 : Er 3+ , Yb 3+ , Nd 3+ (LGW) phosphors exhibit the most intense green emission under 785 nm excitation among the three doped host materials, which is ascribed to their lowest phonon density and the strong absorption properties. Nd 3+ and Yb 3+ concentration effect on its luminescent properties and the energy transfer of Nd 3+ →Yb 3+ →Er 3+ under 785 nm excitation are discussed. The ratio of integrated intensity from the 4 S 3/2 / 2 H 11/2 → 4 I 15/2 transition of Er 3+ is characteristic of the optical temperature sensing based on fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR). LGW shows high absolute sensitivity about 0.0070 K −1 at 439 K and broad temperature sensing ranging from 200 K to 600 K under the excitation of 785 nm compared with systems doped with Er 3+ . Our significant results predicate the potential applications of this lanthanum-doped tungstate in optical thermometers.

Multifunctional NiO@Gd 2 O 3 :Er 3+ ,Yb 3+ hollow nanocomposites (NCs) with mesoporous, upconversion (UC) luminescent and magnetic properties are synthesized by a facile hydrothermal process. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) images reveal that the samples have hollow structures with double shells of UC layer and magnetic layer. N 2 adsorption/desorption isotherm analysis shows the samples have large surface area of 29.052 m 2 /g and typical mesoporous structure. Multicolored UC luminescence at 521 nm, 541 nm and 654 nm are obtained under 980 nm laser excitation. In addition, the measured magnetic hysteresis loops indicate the samples exhibit high superparamagnetic behavior (15.8 emu/g). These multifunctional NCs have potential applications in the field of fluorescence probe, targeted therapy, magnetic separation, etc.

Realization of simultaneous, efficient bifunctional application of thermochromic phosphors on light emitting diodes (LEDs) and as ratiometric thermometers is significant. Herein, doped Er3+ ions are introduced as an activator into double perovskite LiLaMgWO6 host lattice. The developed phosphors can be efficiently excited by a near-ultraviolet LED chip and show bright green emission, mainly at 527 and 543 nm, as well as very low thermal quenching. Their chemical stability is studied, demonstrating excellent application potentials. Furthermore, the temperature sensing properties of LiLaMgWO6:0.01Er3+ were analyzed in the wide range of 303–483 K and show a good exponential relationship between ratiometric intensity and temperature (R2 > 0.999), as well as high sensitivity (2.24% K−1). Such a system not only optimizes the performance in solid light emitting but also provides an excellent platform for designing high-sensitivity optical thermometry.

In this paper, a novel Z-scheme photocatalyst Er 3+ :Yb 0.5 Y 2.5 Al 5 N 0.01 F 0.01 O 11.98 /g-C 3 N 4 –Pt–BiPO 4 was synthesized by sol-hydrothermal and calcination methods. The prepared samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, EDS mappings, XPS, PL, and DRS. In addition, the optimal hydrothermal conditions for the preparation of BiPO 4 were explored with the azofuchsin solution and ciprofloxacin(CIP) solutions as the target pollutants. At the same time, the best calcination temperature and the best calcination time of the Er 3+ :Yb n Y 3−n Al 5 N x F y O 12−x−y and BiPO 4 were investigated. The results showed that the Z-scheme Er 3+ :Yb 0.5 Y 2.5 Al 5 N 0.01 F 0.01 O 11.98 /g-C 3 N 4 –Pt–BiPO 4 photocatalyst has strong redox ability, wide absorption range of visible light, and excellent separation effect of electron–hole pairs, which can efficiently degrade organic pollutants and antibiotic.
