The realization of thermally stable Tb3+-doped green emission at high temperatures in solid-state lighting is still a crucial challenge. Nevertheless, the study on modulating the thermally stable luminescence at high temperatures is seldom reported. The position of the intervalence charge transfer (IVCT) energy level is used to systematically investigate the thermal quenching performance of Tb3+-activated green-emitting phosphors with varying concentration gradients of Gd1−xTaO4:xTb3+ (x = 0.1%, 0.5%, and 2%) in this study. The IVCT energy levels were determined according to the empirical formula to show a decreasing trend, consistent with the position of the IVCT energy levels measured in the excitation and diffuse reflectance spectra. Moreover, the thermal quenching performance of different wavelength excitation positions (host absorption, 4f–5d of Tb3+, and Tb3+–Ta5+ IVCT band) is quite different. The modulation of thermal quenching performance among distinct phosphors when subjected to host excitation or IVCT excitation can be elucidated through optimal positions within the energy levels associated with IVCT. The diverse concentration gradient samples exhibit varying degrees of thermal quenching performance in the variable-temperature spectra. The fluorescence lifetimes of the samples are generally comparable but slightly lower. The quantum efficiency rapidly improves as the Tb concentration increases. The underlying mechanism governing this phenomenon is elucidated by constructing a model that encapsulates the interplay between the compensating and quenching channels, in addition to the energy conversion of Tb3+ into Gd3+. The abovementioned results indicate that the dual driving scheme of the doping concentration and excitation wavelength is an effective means to regulate the thermal quenching performance of Tb-activated green-emitting tantalate phosphors.

A series of ternary rare earth (Eu 3+ , Tb 3+ ) complexes are covalently coated to the 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) by a simple in situ sol–gel method by the bifunctional silylated monomer TTA-Si and TAA-Si (TTA-Si and TAA-Si are 3-(triethoxysilyl)propylisocyanate (TEPIC) modified thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTA) and trifluoroacetylacetone (TAA), respectively). The resulting materials are characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectra, scanning electronic microscope, transmission electron microscope, thermogravimetric analysis, ultraviolet visible diffused reflection measure, photoluminescence spectra, and X-ray diffraction. The photoluminesce measurements indicated that these hybrids exhibit characteristic red and green luminescence originating from the corresponding ternary rare earth ion (Eu 3+ , Tb 3+ ). The luminescence quenching effect of MWCNT networks have been successfully restrained by coating a relatively thicker silica–oxygen-based organic–inorganic complex. Furthermore, the fluorescence lifetimes and emission quantum efficiencies of Eu 3+ hybrid materials are also determined.

The white light-emitting diodes, contributing as a light initiator for the succeeding generation, is now becoming a consistently developing and attractive research area. However, the weak thermal stability, high correlated color temperature (CCT), and low color rendering (Ra) restrict its effectiveness for large-scale implementation. In this work, we reported for the first time the incorporation of rare-earth ions Ce 3+ -Tb 3+ -Sm 3+ into Ca 3 YAl 3 B 4 O 15 (CYAB) in the fabrication of WLEDs, which showed tunable photoluminescence properties to accomplish exceptional thermal stability, single-phase white light emission, and efficient energy transfer among Ce 3+ , Tb 3+ , Sm 3+ ions, respectively. The crystal structure and the rare earth ion dopants in the cation borate CYAB phosphors were quantitatively evaluated, that highlighting the preferences at 9-fold-coordinated Y sites. The sensitization effects were studied by evaluating the photoluminescence, lifetime curves, and quantum efficiencies, respectively. Besides this, the CY 0.45 AB:0.50Tb 3+ ,0.05Sm 3+ and CY 0.65 AB:0.03Ce 3+ ,0.20Tb 3+ ,0.12Sm 3+ phosphors possess significant resistance towards thermal quenching phenomena. The white LED either containing CY 0.45 AB:0.50Tb 3+ ,0.05Sm 3+ phosphor blended with the commercial blue phosphor or the single-phase WLED only containing CY 0.65 AB:0.03Ce 3+ ,0.20Tb 3+ ,0.12Sm 3+ phosphor exhibited warm white emissions either with low CCT ≈ 4543 K or 3913 K and high Ra with 86.0 or 84.4, respectively. These results are superior to the commercial WLED containing Y 3 Al 5 O 12 :Ce 3+ phosphor and blue LED chip (CCT ≈ 7746 K, Ra ≈ 75), that furnish either as a good candidate for the fabrication of warm WLED.

The structure and magnetic properties of the magnetite can be substantial corrected by incorporating foreign cations. In this work, Tb 3+ was successfully incorporated into magnetite and superparamagnetic magnetite nanoparticles were obtained, using solvothermal method. The doping of Tb 3+ greatly reduces the M r and H c values of the magnetite. Due to the doping of high magnetic moment Tb 3+ , the original magnetic moment of the magnetite is destroyed and magnetic domain are decomposed, resulting in a significant reduction in remanence and magnetic agglomeration. The remarkable effect of Tb 3+ doping degaussing will provide new prospects for the application of magnetite materials in the superparamagnetic direction.

The content of Cu 2+ in lubricating oil and lubricant temperature are important indicators predicting mechanical failure. Therefore, developing a nontoxic fluorescence probe is necessary to detect Cu 2+ and temperature in lubricating oil. The lead-free inorganic double perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) Cs 2 AgInCl 6 are potential candidates. However, the low fluorescence intensity and the high excitation energy required of Cs 2 AgInCl 6 NCs limit their practical applications. In this study, Bi 3+ and Tb 3+ were successfully co-doped into Cs 2 AgInCl 6 NCs via the hot-injection method. The doping of Bi 3+ produces a broad emission originating from self-trapped excitons and reduces the excitation energy, allowing commercial LEDs as excitation sources. Tb 3+ ions doping offers characteristic emission peaks ( 5 D 0 - 7 F J ) of Tb 3+ ions and improves the fluorescence intensity of Cs 2 AgInCl 6 NCs. Furthermore, the Cs 2 AgInCl 6 : Bi 3+ /Tb 3+ NCs have been employed as optical thermometry, which provide a temperature calibration curve with the maximum absolute and relative sensitivities of 2.15% K −1 at 350 K and 2.25% K −1 at 303 K in the temperature range of 303–423 K, respectively. Finally, the nanocrystals have been applied to detect Cu 2+ in lubricating oil. The fluorescent probe shows a good detection sensitivity of 8.94 × 10 -4 nM −1 and a low detection limit of 14.3 nM in the range of 10–300 nM. This work not merely offers a novel way for improving the luminescence performances of double perovskite NCs Cs 2 AgInCl 6 , but broadens their potential for detection of Cu 2+ and temperature.

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a biomimetic biomaterial that has been widely used in bone repair for many years. However, the increased risk of infection after surgery and long-time tracing for the material distribution and degradation during bone reconstruction remain challenges in the clinic. Zinc (Zn) is considered as an indispensable microelement for humans and is characterized with antibacterial action and osteogenic activity. Terbium (Tb), a rare-earth element, emits stable fluorescence under ultraviolet light. Here, Tb3+/Zn2+ co-doped hydroxyapatite (HA:Tb/Zn) was prepared to synchronously realize the antibacterial effect, osteogenic activity, and long-time tracing property. We found that HA:Tb/Zn had a strong antibacterial effect on both Gram-positive and Gram-negative clinical infectious bacteria, as well as improved osteogenic activity. HA:Tb/Zn also displayed stable green fluorescence in vitro and in vivo, which indicated great potential for recognizing the material changes during the bone reconstruction process. The combination of the ternary functions is of great significance to control the overuse of antibiotics and realize long-time tracing, and provide a versatile design on biomaterials in bone repair.

Red phosphors with good thermal stability, high color temperature and color purity are critical in high power warm white LED devices. Herein, a series of single and co-doped Tb 3+ ,Eu 3+ polychromatic phosphors with pyrochlore structure based on Gd 2 Zr 2 O 7 have been prepared for the first time by a conventional solid phase reaction method. Compared to single doped Eu 3+ phosphors, Tb 3+ ,Eu 3+ co-doped phosphors possess following advantages: improved UV absorption, increased photoluminescence intensity, extended luminescence range and improved thermal stability. At room temperature, the Gd 2 Zr 2 O 7 :Tb 3+ ,Eu 3+ phosphors exhibited a gradual shift from yellow-green emission at 544 nm to orange-red emission at 613 nm with increasing doping of Eu 3+ ions. Energy transfer efficiency has been evaluated to be 71% by analyzing the fluorescence lifetime of Tb 3+ ions. The concentration quenching mechanism under different conditions was analyzed in detail and it was concluded that the quenching of Tb 3+ is caused by dipole-dipole interaction. In addition, the activation energy (ΔE a ) of the Gd 1.92 Zr 2 O 7 :0.03Tb 3+ ,0.05Eu 3+ phosphor was calculated to be as high as 0.2674 eV compared to other Tb 3+ , Eu 3+ co-doped phosphors, demonstrating its high thermal stability. WLEDs devices based on Gd 1.92 Zr 2 O 7 :0.03Tb 3+ ,0.05Eu 3+ phosphors have been prepared, which have low correlated color temperature (CCT) (5283 K), high color rendering index Ra = 85.5 K) and CIE coordinates chromaticity coordinate (0.3371,0.3333). All of the results show that Gd 2 Zr 2 O 7 :Tb 3+ ,Eu 3+ phosphors provide a new avenue to develop high quality red emission and high thermal stability phosphors for WLEDs.

In the present study, a lanthanide fluorescence sensor array was developed for the discrimination of honey’s botanical origin. Dipicolinic acid (DPA) was used as the antenna ligand for sensitizing the fluorescence of Tb3+and Eu3+to prepare the DPA-Tb3+/Eu3+complex. This lanthanide fluorescence sensor showed a cross-reactive response to the major constituents of honey, which led to the result that different classes of honey solution exhibited distinct quenching effects on the fluorescence of the DPA-Tb3+/Eu3+complex. Furthermore, a fluorescence sensor array composed of ten sensors was constructed by adjusting the pH and the component of the DPA-Tb3+/Eu3+complex to show multivariate responses towards honey. The visual fluorescence image of the sensor array was recorded by using a smartphone under excitation with portable UV lamp. Results indicated that the pattern of the visual image was related with the botanical origin. After extracting the RGB value of each sensor in 96-well plate, the ratio of R/G was used for principal component analysis (PCA). The results showed that three classes of honey (astragalus, logan, and litchi) were well distinguished. Moreover, the value of principal component 1 (PC1) showed good linearity with the composition of mixing honey and could be used for semi-quantitative analysis. The proposed lanthanide fluorescence sensor array presents a visual and portable method for the discrimination of a honey’s origin without the use of analytical instruments, and might provide a novel and simple strategy for the measurement of food origin.Keywords:honey;botanical origin;lanthanide complex;fluorescence;sensor array

Reversible bright-dark luminescence nanomaterials have been developed for information storage and anti-counterfeiting in recent years, however, their monochrome characteristic and 2D patterning impose limits on the effective information storage density. In this work, a new strategy for producing ultraviolet switchable and stable luminescent patterns is proposed, based on Ln 3+ (Eu 3+ /Tb 3+ ) induced-polyelectrolyte aggregates (LIPAs) with sharp multi-color optical properties . Under 365 nm excitation, a multicolor pattern can be observed using both red and green, which is not visible when this excitation light source is off. The LIPAs enable the luminescent lanthanide complexes to be compatibilized with poly(lactic acid) (PLA). Functional anti-counterfeiting patterns were prepared by 3D printing using luminescent PLA containing by Ln 3+ (Eu 3+ /Tb 3+ ) LIPAs. Invisible, adjustable and ultra-stable multicolor luminescent patterns well enable information storage and enhance information security for anti-counterfeiting applications.

X-ray excitation photodynamic therapy is a new photodynamic therapy mode that induces tumor cell apoptosis by indirectly stimulating photosensitizer on nanoparticles with X-ray as excitation light source and generating singlet oxygen. It solves the problem of light penetration in traditional photodynamic therapy and realizes the treatment of deep tumors. At present, the weak X-ray-induced luminescence restricts further development of X-ray photodynamic therapy. NaLuF 4 :Li + /Gd 3+ /Tb 3+ rare-earth nanoparticles with uniform size and regular morphology were synthesized by solvothermal method . The X-ray-induced luminescence intensity of NaLuF 4 :Li + /Gd 3+ /Tb 3+ NPs was improved by Li + and Gd 3+ ions co-doping. The light yield of NaLuF 4 :Li + /Gd 3+ /Tb 3+ NPs with 5% Li + ions doping was 1.4 times than that of reference sample due to the change of crystal field symmetry. Furthermore, the effective lifetime of persistent luminescence increased from 221.5 s to 251.9 s after 15% Li + ions doping. The thermoluminescence curves confirmed that the trap concentration was increased after Li + ions doping, which was responsible for enhancing persistent luminescence lifetime . Long persistent luminescence emission laid a foundation for further application in photodynamic therapy.

The ratiometric fluorescent probe UiO-OH@Tb, a zirconium-based MOF functionalized with Tb3+, was synthesized using a hydrothermal method. This probe employs the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) mechanism between Tb3+and malachite green (MG) for the double-inverse signal ratiometric fluorescence detection of MG. The probe’s color shifts from lime green to blue with an increasing concentration of MG. In contrast, the monometallic MOFs’ (UiO-OH) probe shows only blue fluorescence quenching due to the inner filter effect (IFE) after interacting with MG. Additionally, the composite fluorescent probe (UiO-OH@Tb) exhibits superior sensitivity, with a detection limit (LOD) of 0.19 μM, which is significantly lower than that of the monometallic MOFs (25 μM). Moreover, the content of MG can be detected on-site (LOD = 0.94 μM) using the RGB function of smartphones. Hence, the UiO-OH@Tb probe is proven to be an ideal material for MG detection, demonstrating significant practical value in real-world applications.

The polychromatic emission and wide-range color tuning in the luminescent nanoparticles are currently of crucial importance, due to the development of color and white light-emitting diode (LED) devices, based on such lanthanide-doped nanostructured materials . By utilization of precipitation method, Tb 3+ -doped and Tb 3+ /Eu 3+ -codoped NaYbF 4 nanoparticles ( i . e . NPs) are synthesized. For Tb 3+ -doped NaYbF 4 NPs excited by 377 nm, green emission originating from Tb 3+ is observed, where its optimum state is obtained when Tb 3+ content is 25 mol% and the concentration quenching mechanism is found by electric dipole-dipole interaction. Moreover, due to the existence of energy transfer between Tb 3+ and Eu 3+ , polychromatic emissions are realized in Tb 3+ /Eu 3+ -codoped NaYbF 4 NPs as Eu 3+ content increases. Through analyzing emission decay times and emission spectra , it was confirmed that the energy transfer mechanism in the synthesized NPs is governed mainly by electric dipole-dipole interaction. Furthermore, the resultant NPs also own strong resistance to temperature, which is verified by temperature-dependent emission spectra , and the activation energies of Tb 3+ and Eu 3+ are 0.206 and 0.207 eV, respectively. In addition, by employing designed NPs as yellow-emitting components, the fabricated white-LED emits brightness warm white light with color coordinate of (0.385, 0.380), high color rendering index of 84.3 and low correlated color temperature of 3903 K. This work does not only offer an available route to develop NPs with polychromatic emissions but also devise promising luminescent materials for improving the performance of the phosphor-converted white-LED.
