This work begins with a study of the synthesis of multi-color luminescence phosphors, which is followed by a discussion of the temperature sensitivity of AgBi(MoO4)2:Yb3+/Er3+. Uniform and approximately spherical particles of AgBi(MoO4)2-based phosphors were prepared by a simple one-step hydrothermal method without adding any surfactant. We obtained a series of rich green, yellow, blue, and white luminescence phosphors by doping Ln3+ (Ln3+ = Yb3+, Er3+, Ho3+, Tm3+) into the AgBi(MoO4)2 matrix, and an analysis of various correlative factors was made, especially for the amounts of doping ions. Furthermore, the investigation of the temperature sensitivity of AgBi(MoO4)2:Yb3+/Er3+ revealed that the fluorescence intensity becomes lower with increasing temperature from 323 to 573 K. The fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) of the two thermal coupling energy levels (2H11/2, 4S3/2) of Er3+ was calculated, and the absolute sensitivity of the obtained phosphor reached a maximum value of 1.32% K−1 at 463 K, as obtained by fitting the FIR as a function of temperature, which is a relatively high level compared with other related materials. This material is expected to be used as a highly sensitive FIR thermometer.

In this work, a comparative study of the upconversion (UC) luminescence properties of ${{\rm Er}^{3 +}} {-} {{\rm Yb}^{3 +}}$-co-doped ${{\rm AWO}_4}$ (${\rm A} = {\rm Ba}$, Sr, and Ca) scheelite phosphors and ${{\rm Er}^{3 +}} {-} {{\rm Yb}^{3 +}} $-co-doped ${{\rm MgWO}_4}$ wolframite phosphors is reported. Under 980 nm excitation, all the samples emit green and red emissions. The ${{\rm Er}^{3 +}} {-} {{\rm Yb}^{3 +}}$-doped ${{\rm MgWO}_4}$ phosphor has a higher UC emission intensity. Furthermore, the optical temperature sensing properties in ${{\rm Er}^{3 +}} {-} {{\rm Yb}^{3 +}}$-co-doped ${{\rm AWO}_4}$ (${\rm A} = {\rm Ba}$, Sr, Ca, and Mg) phosphor samples are investigated. The relative sensitivity (${{\rm S}_r}$) based on thermally coupled levels (TCLs) increases gradually with an increase in matrix phonon energy. The absolute sensitivity (${{\rm S}_a}$) values of the samples are accurately predicted by the chemical bonding parameter (${{\rm f}_c}$). The results of the correlation between the UC luminescence properties and the microscopic crystal structure, and the relationship of the temperature sensitivity and the host parameters, provide us with a guiding insight for the selection of a host material with ideal temperature measurement capability.

Na 0.90- y AlSiO 4 :0.1Er 3+ , y Yb 3+ (0 ≤ y ≤ 0.007) phosphors were prepared by the solid state reaction method and their dual mode multicolor luminescence properties were systematically investigated. The phosphors were crystallized into the carnegieite polymorph of NaAlSiO 4 at 1300 °C. The synthesized phosphors were characterized by using powder XRD technique, FT-IR and UV-VIS-NIR diffuse reflectance spectra. Upon 380 nm excitation, the phosphors emitted visible and NIR downconversion emission, which follows the quantum cutting process. The upconversion emission spectra , irrespective of the laser excitation wavelength (980 nm, 808 nm, or 1550 nm), show characteristics sharp green, and red emissions, from 2 H 11/2 → 4 I 15/2 , 4 S 3/2 → 4 I 15/2 , and 4 F 9/2 → 4 I 15/2 transitions of Er 3+ , respectively. Intense green (552 nm), red (664 nm) and NIR (809 nm) emissions were observed at 980, 808 and 1550 nm laser excitation, respectively. The dual mode emission of the Na 0.90- y AlSiO 4 :0.1Er 3+ , y Yb 3+ (0 ≤ y ≤ 0.007) phosphors is enhanced upon Yb 3+ co-doping. By analyzing the dependence of upconversion emission intensities on the laser excitation power, a possible upconversion emission mechanism is proposed.

Er 3+ -activated upconversion (UC) luminescent materials show revolutionary potential in advanced anti-counterfeiting and non-contact temperature sensing by virtue of their excellent multiphoton absorption ability and color-tunable emission characteristics. However, it is difficult for the traditional system to achieve orthogonal UC luminescence of Er 3+ activator with color-tunable outputs in a simple nanostructure, which thus limits its multifunctional applications. To address this challenge, we designed Er 3+ -doped Bi 4 O 5 Br 2 nanosheets with tunable UC colors through smart dynamic manipulation of Er 3+ photon transition processes. Upon various excitation modes (e. g. non-steady-state, dual-wavelength-excitation, thermal excitation), the electron population among the intermediate states of Er 3+ ions can be precisely regulated through multi-photon upconverting processes, resulting in orthogonal luminescence with dynamically adjustable colors. Benefiting from exceptional emission performance (thermal-sensitive upconversion luminescence from thermally coupled levels Er 3+ : 2 H 11/2 / 5 S 3/2 and color-tunable orthogonal upconversion emission from green-emitting level Er 3+ : 2 H 11/2 / 5 S 3/2 and red-emitting state Er 3+ : 4 F 9/2 ), the as-obtained sample exhibits great potential in non-contact temperature measurement and multi-mode anti-counterfeiting via a series of concept verification experiments. This work gives a conceptual model to achieve Er 3+ orthogonal upconversion with multi-color outputs by modulating the emission dynamic in simple structural host, which will encourage researchers to develop multifunctional upconversion materials for the applications of high-level anti-counterfeiting and optical thermometry.

Self deep red emission was found for the first time in NaLaCaWO 6 double perovskite which was synthesized via solid-state reaction, and the luminescence was effectively enhanced and regulated via Er 3+ doping. A comprehensive analysis of the calcination atmosphere dependent photoluminescence, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electron paramagnetic resonance revealed that the deep red luminescence is particularly related to oxygen defects of oxygen interstitials. The plant growth lighting and the optical thermometry performance of the materials were systematically investigated. Under 360 nm or 502 nm excitation, the pristine NaLaCaWO 6 exhibits deep red emission at 690 nm that nicely matches the photosensitive pigment (P FR ) essential for plant growth. The deep red luminescence of NaLaCaWO 6 was 230 % increased by Er 3+ doping. Moreover, deep red emission of the host and green emission of the Er 3+ shows extinguished different temperature depend luminescence behavior, and dual-mode optical thermometry with ultra high relative sensitivity ( S r ) was built based on the materials. Remarkably, the maximum S r based on the fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) mode reached 3.84 % K −1 (498 K), and maximum S r is as high as 13.1 % K −1 (548 K) when based on the fluorescence lifetime (FL) mode. The results indicate that the NaLaCaWO 6 :Er 3+ phosphor shows promising potential application in the field of plant growth and optical temperature sensing.

Water-soluble BaYF5:Yb3+/Er3+ nanoparticles with the surface functionalized by a layer of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) were synthesized via a facile one-step PAA-assisted hydrothermal method. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) protein was conjugated with BaYF5:Yb3+/Er3+
upconversion nanoparticles via free carboxylic acid groups on the surface of nanoparticles. The final products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), infrared (IR) spectrophotometry, ultraviolet (UV) spectrophotometry and photoluminescence spectroscopy
(PL). The XRD results showed that PAA-capped BaYF5:Yb3+/Er3+ upconversion nanoparticles could be obtained via a PAA assisted hydrothermal process with the pH value of 8 at 200 °C for 24 h. The TEM results showed that the morphology of BaYF5:Yb3+/Er3+
nanoparticles was spherical particles with an average diameter of about 4 nm. The IR and UV spectra showed that BSA has been conjugated with BaYF5:Yb3+/Er3+ up-conversion nanoparticles. The luminescence properties of BaYF5:Yb3+/Er3+
up-conversion nanoparticles were also studied. The luminescence properties of the products suggest that BaYF5:Yb3+/Er3+ upconversion nanoparticles have promising applications for labels in biological assays.

A simple combustion method was reported to prepare a novel BiOBr:Yb3+,Er3+/AgBr (BYE/AgBr) heterojunction photocatalyst. Phase composition, morphology and optical properties of samples were characterized. The diffuse reflectance and photoluminescence spectra showed that the as-synthesized BYE/AgBr can be activated under both visible (vis) and near-infrared (NIR) light. Notably, BYE/AgBr composites exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activity for RhB degradation under vis/NIR irradiation. The degradation rate constants of BYE/AgBr-1 : 1.5 for RhB were 0.0220 min−1 and 0.01368 h−1 under visible and NIR irradiation, which are about 2.6 and 4.9 times higher than that of pure BYE, respectively. The upconversion effect of Er3+ can convert the NIR light (∼980 nm) to visible light which was then absorbed by BYE/AgBr to generate e− and h+. Moreover, the formation of the heterojunction also plays a role in the enhanced vis/NIR photocatalytic abilities; and a corresponding plausible photocatalytic mechanism was proposed.

A novel near-infrared antibacterial material, Er3+-Yb3+-Fe3+ tridoped TiO2 nanopowder, was synthesized and applied to kill Aeromonas hydrophia with a maximal bactericidal rate of 65% in 90 min under 980 nm laser irradiation. However, Fe3+-TiO2 or Er3+-Yb3+-TiO2 nanopowders obtained under the same conditions barely could kill Aeromonas hydrophia. The initial energy applied in the photocatalysis antibacterial process is supplied by the upconversion emission of Er3+ and Yb3+ and the codoping of Fe3+, which has intensified the light absorption intensity and enlarged the absorption range. The analyses of phase structure and the optical properties including XRD, UV−vis diffuse reflectance spectra, and upconversion photoluminescence spectra of Er3+-Yb3+-Fe3+ tridoped TiO2 nanopowder have been performed in detail to reveal the complex energy transfer and change mechanism. According to our experimental results, the mechanism has been demonstrated involving the upconversion emission, multistep excitation by means of intermediate energy level, capture and transfer electrons of Fe3+, and so on. The photocatalystic antibacterial function of Er3+-Yb3+-Fe3+-TiO2 under near-infrared instead of ultraviolet light is also reported. Because of the strong penetrability of near-infrared, this kind of material may be used in photodynamic therapy (PDT) to kill bacteria or tumors directly.

In this work, W 6+ ions doped Bi 2 MoO 6 :20%Yb 3+ , 2%Er 3+ samples were successfully synthesized by a facile and modified hydrothermal method . The main morphology of Bi 2 MoO 6 samples were hollow microsphere structure assembled by nanosheets . The particle size was slightly increased as enhancing W 6+ ions doping concentration to 5%, then decreased as the doping concentration increased. Besides, doping W 6+ ions can increase the band gap of products from 2.65 eV to 2.71eV. The upconversion emission intensity of all samples was strongly influenced by the W 6+ ions doping concentration. The luminescent intensity enhanced with the doping concentration increasing up to 3%, then decreased when the W 6+ ions concentration further increased. Moreover, the intensity of red emission increased by a large margin than that of green-light region. Besides, the lifetime of 4 F 9/2 states of Er 3+ ions for Bi 2 MoO 6 :20%Yb 3+ , 2%Er 3+ , 3%W 6+ (τ 655 = 583.64 μs) had significant longer lifetime relative to the Bi 2 MoO 6 :20%Yb 3+ , 2%Er 3+ (τ 655 = 70.29 μs).

The fluorescence-based temperature sensor using temperature-dependent fluorescence properties is a great candidate to replace traditional temperature-measurement detector like thermocouple , because the latter is inaccessible to conquer some special circumstances such as a corrosive environment. In this study, the nano-sized Er 3+ doped NaY(WO 4 ) 2 phosphors were synthesized by solvothermal method. The origins of three emission peaks located at 527 nm, 549 nm and 665 nm were identified. The 2 H 11/2 → 4 I 15/2 (green emission 1) and 4 S 3/2 → 4 I 15/2 (green emission 2) transitions of the Er 3+ ion possessed a temperature dependent behavior over the range of 300–30 K and it was proposed for temperature sensing (optical thermometry) using the fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) method. The FIR value of nano-sized phosphors decreased with the decrease of temperature, and the experimental data were well fitted with a theoretical function. A large energy difference (1048.5) was obtained from the fitting curve, which indicate that the sensitivity of nano-sized NaY(WO 4 ) 2 : Er is higher than that of micro-sized one prepared by high temperature solid state reaction. Particularly, at temperatures below 150 K, the sensitivity of nano-sized UC phosphors was enhanced obviously. The results suggested that this nano-sized phosphor could be a splendid option for next generation luminescence-based temperature sensing devices in cryogenic region.

NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+, Mn2+ nanocrystals with cubic crystal phase were obtained by a facile solvothermal method through doping a proper amount of Mn2+ ions to the nanocrystals. The results of XRD and TEM showed that the as-prepared samples
were well crystallized and their average size was about 25 nm. Under excitations at 978.5 nm and at 532 nm, obvious enhancement and regulation of upconversion and downconversion fluorescence were obtained. Upconversion emission spectra indicate that these effects were independent of doped
concentrations of Er3+ and Yb3+, excitation power, and the excitation wavelength in the current study. It is concluded that the enhancement of fluorescence emissions is mainly due to the change of local symmetry around Er3+ ions, while the regulation of red-to-green
ratios was caused by efficient energy transfer between Er3+ and Mn2+ ions. This kind of upconversion material has a great potential in bioimaging and drug delivery since the excitation and emission falls into the region of “optical window” of biological tissues.

Doping lanthanide ions in metal oxides is an efficient way to develop visible and near-infrared (NIR) active photocatalysts. Herein, we present a method to develop NIR active photocatalyst via doping Er 3+ into ZnO/ZnAl 2 O 4 multi-phase oxides by isomorphous replacement of Al 3+ with Er 3+ during the preparation of Zn/Al-hydrotalcite-like compound, specifically, the calcination of the hydrotalcite-like compound at 900 °C. The as-prepared Er 3+ -doped catalyst and its precursor were characterized using X-ray diffraction technique, scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and near-infrared-visible-ultraviolet diffused reflectance spectroscopy. It was found that the doping of Er 3+ causes lattice expansion for ZnO and ZnAl 2 O 4, and yields optical absorptions at visible and NIR light regions. The obtained Er 3+ -doped ZnO/ZnAl 2 O 4 multi-phase oxides produce superoxide and hydroxyl radicals in the photocatalytic process, and show enhanced ultraviolet (UV) photocatalytic activity on degradation of methyl orange, compared to undoped ZnO/ZnAl 2 O 4 multi-phase oxides. The Er 3+ -doped ZnO/ZnAl 2 O 4 multi-phase oxides also possess visible and NIR light photocatalytic activities, and its photocatalytic activity is rather stable under UV, visible and NIR light irradiation. This work provides a new way for doping of lanthanide ions in metal oxides and designing full-spectrum photocatalysts.
