In this work, a designed porous DNA crystal with high intrinsic biocompatibility was used as the scaffold material to load fluorescent guest molecules to detect anti-cancer drugs. It is shown here that the synthesized crystals have the characteristics consistent with the designed large solvent channels, and can therefore accommodate guest molecules such as fluorescent proteins that cannot be accommodated by less porous crystals. Eu(TTA)3phen and Tb(acac)3phen lanthanide complexes were individually noncovalently loaded into the porous crystals, resulting in hybrid luminescent DNA crystals. Emodin, an anti-cancer, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory drug, was found to quench lanthanide complexes in solution or in crystals. Notably, emodin is the active ingredient of Lianhua Qingwen Capsule, an anti-COVID-19 drug candidate. Therefore, the porous DNA crystals reported here have potential applications as a biocompatible and theranostic delivery biomaterial for functional macromolecules.

Single-source white-light emitters are highlighted with stable color and excellent color rendering ability, which can largely simplify the white-light-emitting-diode (WLED) structure. All-inorganic and lead-free double perovskites have attracted extensive research interest and provide versatile doping sites to accommodate the extrinsic multi-valent ions. Herein, the synthesis and tunable emission of Sb 3+ –Ln 3+ -codoped Cs 2 NaYCl 6 single crystals (SCs) is reported. Particularly, bright white-light emission with a high photoluminescence quantum yield of 80.5% is yielded in 0.5%Sb 3+ –2%Tb 3+ –2%Sm 3+ -codoped Cs 2 NaYCl 6 SCs. Steady-state photoluminescence (PL) and time-resolved PL spectra are employed to reveal the energy transfer from Sb 3+ -induced self-trapped excitons to Ln 3+ ions. Temperature-dependent PL spectra further demonstrate that the fluorescence intensity ratio of band 657 to band 590 nm is highly dependent on the temperature, and the relative sensitivity reaches a maximum of up to 1.59% K −1 at 260 K. Moreover, the WLED based on 0.5%Sb 3+ -2%Tb 3+ -2%Sm 3+ -codoped Cs 2 NaYCl 6 SCs delivers a higher average color rendering index of 87 than 0.5%Sb 3+ -0.8%Tb 3+ -2.5%Ho 3+ -codoped Cs 2 NaYCl 6 (74.6). The outstanding white-light-emission performance together with the high temperature dependence of the fluorescence spectra confers Sb 3+ –Ln 3+ -codoped Cs 2 NaYCl 6 with huge application potential in solid-state lighting and ratiometric optical thermometry.

Efficient dual-modal luminescence is highly desired for applications in high security anti-counterfeiting. In the present work, Yb3+/Ln3+/Mn4+ (Ln = Er, Ho, and Tm) tri-doped Na3ZrF7 phosphors were fabricated via oil–water interface cation exchange using Yb3+/Ln3+:Na3ZrF7 as the exchanging hosts. The as-prepared products exhibited typical Mn4+ red down-shifting luminescence under UV light excitation and Er3+ red, Ho3+ yellow and Tm3+ near-infrared multi-color upconversion emissions under 980 nm laser excitation. The Mn4+ dopants in the Na3ZrF7 host experienced strong crystal-field strength Dq of 3.63 and showed superior thermal stability with up to 90% of the initial emission intensity retained at 448 K. Steady-state and time-resolved emission spectra verified that there was no detrimental energy transfer interaction between Mn4+ and Ln3+, enabling bright and eye-visible bi-functional emissions for the present products. As a consequence, the as-prepared phosphors were demonstrated to be applicable in anti-counterfeiting by a proof of concept experiment of fluorescent labeling for specially designed patterns.

All-inorganic lead-free halide double perovskites (HDPs) with unique soft lattice structure have attractive photoluminence (PL) from self-trapping excitons (STEs). However, pristine HDPs suffer from low PL quantum yiled and narrow color gamut, collectively hindering their applications. Here, heavy metal ion Sb 3+ is introduced into rare-earth-based Cs 2 NaLuCl 6 HDPs to enhance the blue emission intensity of STEs and the mechamism is illustrated through DFT calulation. Then lanthanide ions (Ln 3+ = Er 3+ , Ho 3+ ) are added in blue light emissive Cs 2 NaLuCl 6 : Sb 3+ and typical green and red light emission can be obtained via the energy transfer (ET) from STEs to Er 3+ and Ho 3+ , respectively. Luminescence chromaticity modulation and white emission is achieved by adjusting the doping content of Ln 3+ . Leveraging the distinct thermal responses of STEs and Er 3+ emissions in Cs 2 NaLuCl 6 : Sb 3+ , Er 3+ , a dual-mode fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) thermometer is proposed by integrating non-thermally coupled energy levels (NTCL) and thermally coupled energy levels (TCL) of STEs and Er 3+ . The dual-mode FIR thermometer exhibits pronounced chromaticity variation (CIE Δy = 0.072) with temperature range from 294 to 473 K, elevated sensitivity (S r = 1.24 %) at 293 K and better repeatability test, demonstrating its application for high-precision visualized optical temperature sensing.

Establishing effective methods to optimize luminescent materials has been a significant challenge for white light-emitting-diode (WLED) applications. Herein, we successfully realized the adjustment of the photoluminescence and enhancement of the thermal stability of Ln3+ (Ln3+ = Ce3+, Eu3+)-doped Ca10−x/yBax/y(PO4)6O phosphors. First, Ba2+ ions from raw BaCO3 material realized a spectral red shift from 464 nm to 506 nm, which we suggested to be due to a synergistic effect from a centroid shift and crystal field splitting. When using BaHPO4 as a raw material, the PL intensity was 6.5 times that of the initial intensity. Surprisingly, the thermal stability was also improved, which was attributed to the increasing lattice distortion introducing many traps. Second, the Ca10(PO4)6O:Eu3+ red phosphor exhibited an abnormal emission phenomenon involving the 5D0 → 7F0 peak at 575 nm becoming the strongest emission peak and the 5D0 → 7F1 peak at 585 nm becoming particularly weak. The site symmetry and charge transfer states were speculated to be closely related to this phenomenon. The charge transfer states were not only correlated with the crystal field strength, but also related to f-electron delocalization, which significantly influenced the energy-level structure of Eu3+. More importantly, according to the relationship between the I(5D0 → 7F0)/I(5D0 → 7F1) ratio and the lattice structure, Eu3+ in the Ca10(PO4)6O compound could be applied as a probe to explore the matrix information, which would provide a helpful method to investigate the lattice structures of compounds and also guide researchers to design new suitable red phosphors.

A series of novel Bi 3+ /Ln 3+ -activated Ca 2 ScSbO 6 (CSSO) phosphors were synthesized by solid-state method and their luminescent behaviors were investigated in detail. Under the 302 nm excitation, the CSSO:Bi 3+ shows remarkable near-ultraviolet photoluminescence with a peak emission at 365 nm. Eu 3+ -activated CSSO phosphor possesses high efficiency and no obvious reduction of emission intensity even after replacing Sc with Eu completely, which indicates a low-concentration quenching effect. In addition, its emission intensity at 423 K (I 423K ) still maintains 88 % compared with that of at room temperature (I 298K ), indicating good thermostability. In contrast, the CSSO:Bi 3+ phosphor exhibits a significant reduction in emission intensity, maintaining only 49 % of its luminescence at 423 K (I 423K /I 298K ). By codoping Bi 3+ and Ln 3+ (Ln = Eu, Tb, Dy, Sm), the energy transfer was observed from the Bi 3+ to Ln 3+ ions, endowing the CSSO:Bi 3+ , Ln 3+ phosphors with tunable multicolor emissions. Leveraging the differing thermostabilities of the emission spectra for Bi 3+ and Ln 3+ ions, we designed and assessed a range of sensitive optical thermometers. Among these, the CSSO:Bi 3+ , Eu 3+ phosphors exhibited the best performance, boasting maximum absolute and relative sensitivities of 9.96 % K −1 and 2.002 % K −1 , respectively. Additionally, we displayed the multi-mode anti-counterfeiting function of synthesized phosphors, and a multi-color switching system was designed with the advantages of direct visualization and easy identification of encrypted information. These results indicate that Bi 3+ and Ln 3+ coactivated CSSO phosphor has the potential application for non-contact temperature measurement and anti-counterfeiting.

Lu(OH)CO 3 :Ln 3+ /LuBO 3 :Ln 3+ (Ln = Eu, Tb) nanospheres have been synthesized by the soft chemistry route. This synthesis process does not require the addition of any organic solvents and surfactant. The whole process consists of homogeneous precipitation and hydrothermal process. First, uniform spherical Lu(OH)CO 3 :Ln 3+ (Ln = Eu, Tb) nanoparticles with the sizes of 70 nm were obtained by the classic urea-based homogeneous precipitation. Then, with the above Lu(OH)CO 3 :Ln 3+ (Ln = Eu, Tb) nanosphere as the precursor, the composites of Lu(OH)CO 3 :Ln 3+ /LuBO 3 :Ln 3+ (Ln = Eu, Tb) nanospheres formed by the simple hydrothermal process. The phases, morphologies, as well as the luminescence properties of as-prepared samples were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and photoluminescence. Under a short wavelength excitation, the down-conversion Eu 3+ and Tb 3+ -doped LuBO 3 samples were investigated and explained.

A 2 BB’ X 6 double perovskite has recently been considered as a potential substitute for lead-based halide perovskite . In particular, the lead-free Cs 2 AgInCl 6 material possesses excellent moisture and thermal stability. However, the wide bandgap of the Cs 2 AgInCl 6 host limits its optical properties . Doping with active elements is a unique avenue to endow Cs 2 AgInCl 6 with excellent optical properties . Here, a strategy is proposed to explore the efficiency of near-infrared (NIR) emissions in Ln 3+ (Ln Nd, Yb) ions doped Cs 2 AgInCl 6 microcrystal by the codoping of Sb 3+ ion for the first time. The incorporation of Sb 3+ ion emerges a new optical absorption channel at a longer wavelength (>350 nm) and reduces the electron bandgap. Under the excitation at 365 nm, Sb 3+ and Ln 3+ (Ln Nd, Yb) co-doped Cs 2 AgInCl 6 show the efficient NIR emission peaking at around 1000 nm, attributing to the effective energy transfer from Sb 3+ to Yb 3+ or Nd 3+ f-electrons. Accordingly, the photoluminescence mechanism and environmental stability of Sb 3+ and Ln 3+ (Ln Nd, Yb) co-doped Cs 2 AgInCl 6 microcrystal were also discussed in detail. This work demonstrates the availability of the Sb 3+ doping tactics to realize efficient NIR emission in Ln 3+ (Ln Nd, Yb) doped Cs 2 AgInCl 6 microcrystal.

Well-crystallized and uniform ScPO4·2H2O and ScPO4·2H2O:Ln3+ (Ln = Ce, Eu, Tb, Lu) nano/micro-crystals with multiform morphologies, such as sphere, hexagonal plate, diamond, four-angle star, butterfly-shaped and cuboid, have been successfully synthesized by a facile hydrothermal route without any surfactant molecules. XRD, FE-SEM, TEM, PL and kinetic decay were used to characterize the as-prepared products. The size and morphology of ScPO4·2H2O can be determined by the pH value, reaction time, reaction temperature, additive and doping of lanthanide ions. In particular, Ln3+ doping not only has a crucial role in the morphology of ScPO4·2H2O, but also affects its luminescence properties. The ScPO4·2H2O:Tb3+ and ScPO4·2H2O:Ce3+ samples display intense green and blue emissions, respectively. More importantly, the luminescence properties are closely related to morphologies and crystallinity. It can be found that the ScPO4·2H2O:Tb3+ sample with a hexagonal plate-like morphology possesses much higher emission intensity than those with other morphologies because of its larger anisotropic geometry. ScPO4:Ln3+ crystals will become promising candidates for a variety of applications in down/up-conversion luminescence, magnets, lasers, and bio-labeling.

Monodisperse In 2 O 3 : Yb 3+ /Er 3+ upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) were firstly synthesized via solvothermal method in three-neck round-bottom flask. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) methods are used to characterize the prepared UCNPs. The size of monodisperse spheroid nanoparticles prepared can be controllable in 31 nm. The sample exhibits stronger upconversion luminescence (UCL) than reported In 2 O 3 : Yb 3+ /Er 3+ UCNPs with similar size. Furthermore, the obtained In 2 O 3 UCNPs, by coating the SiO 2 protecting layer, display fine stability. Simultaneously, the UCL properties and possible energy transfer process of In 2 O 3 : Yb 3+ /Ho 3+ and In 2 O 3 : Yb 3+ /Tm 3+ NPs have also been investigated by the spectra distribution and power dependence. The results indicate Yb 3+ /Er 3+ , Yb 3+ /Ho 3+ and Yb 3+ /Tm 3+ codoped In 2 O 3 UCNPs is a probable oxide upconverting material with small size and intense UCL for biological applications.

Developing metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with strong near-infrared II (NIR-II, 1000–1700 nm) emission is significant for biomedical research but highly challenging. So far there are no MOFs reported for NIR-II imaging in vivo due to their poor NIR-II emission efficiency. Herein, a strategy is proposed to prepare MOFs with strong NIR-II emission, by integrating NIR dye IR-3C and Ln 3+ (Ln = Yb, Nd, and Er) into a same framework. IR-3C with high photon-absorption ability harvests the excitation photons and transfers energy to Ln 3+ via a resonance energy transfer pathway, significantly enhancing the NIR-II emission of Ln 3+ . The as-obtained Er-BTC-IR exhibits excellent NIR-IIb (1500–1700 nm) emission efficiency in aqueous phase and good biocompatibility after surface modification, which provides advanced bioimaging performance in vivo. It is able to clearly delineate the vessels, spine, and lymph of mice, and also to differentiate the vessels with acute vascular inflammation. This strategy paves the way to the preparation of NIR-II emissive MOFs and will promote their bioapplication.

The existence of energy transfer channels from the self-trapped exciton (STE) emission to lanthanide (Ln3+) ions in double perovskites (DPs) opens up new possibilities for high security anti-counterfeiting applications. In the present investigation, we synthesized Sb3+/Ho3+/Er3+ doped Cs2NaGdCl6 rare-earth-based DPs using a simple solvothermal method, whose luminescence could be quenched by water and restored after drying. The efficient down-shifting (DS) red emission from the 4f–4f transition of Ho3+ was enhanced 8-fold due to the energy transfer of STEs → Ho3+ ions via Sb3+ sensitization. The DS and up-conversion (UC) dual-mode multicolor emissions were obtained by further introducing Er3+. Specifically, the DS luminescence of the tri-doped sample under the UV region and that under 448 nm irradiation were white and red, respectively; and the UC luminescence under 980 nm irradiation was green. In view of their stimulus response to water and dual-mode multicolor luminescence properties, advanced anti-counterfeiting materials based on the obtained samples were designed.
