Efficiently modulating the site occupation of activators has important implications in the design of color-tunable phosphors. In this paper, we report a series of novel Sr3Sc4O9:xEu phosphors. The activators (Eu2+) selectively occupy multiple cationic sites (Sr1–3 and Sc1–4) in the Sr3Sc4O9 matrix with the increase of doping concentration, thus achieving the modulation of emission color from deep-red to white to green. The structure-dependent luminescence mechanism is investigated in detail. The PL spectrum of the Sr3Sc4O9:0.06Eu phosphor upon blue light excitation exhibits an asymmetrically broad deep-red emission band peaking at 688 nm with a FWHM ≈ 100 nm, which clearly overlaps with the absorption curves of red-phytochrome (Pr) and far-red-phytochrome (Pfr). The photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) is significantly improved from 2.7% to 19.18% by adopting a double-reduction strategy. The full-visible-spectrum white emission of Sr3Sc4O9:0.01Eu is achieved when excited by UV light. A full-spectrum white LED with Ra = 86 and CCT = 5040 K was packaged with a single-component white emission Sr3Sc4O9:0.01Eu phosphor. All the results suggest the utilization potential of multifunctional Sr3Sc4O9:xEu phosphors in agricultural and full-spectrum general lighting.

Garnet transparent ceramics are promising color converters for white laser diodes (LDs) because of their efficient broadband emission and favorable thermal properties. Herein, composite color converters were prepared by integrating the Lu 3 Al 5 O 12 :Ce 3+ (LuAG:Ce) transparent ceramics with h-BN modified Mg 2 Al 4 Si 5 O 18 : Eu 2+ (MAS:Eu) phosphor-in-glass films (PiGFs). Under 450 nm excitation, the LuAG: Ce-BN-MAS:Eu composites exhibit broad emission bands ranging from 480 to 720 nm, and the relative Eu 2+ /Ce 3+ emission intensity ratio rises with increasing h-BN content. The optimized LuAG:Ce-2BN-MAS:3Eu sample shows the highest emission intensity, with an internal quantum efficiency of 92.46% and an external quantum efficiency of 42.83%. In addition, the emission intensity at 150 °C retains 94.56% of that at room temperature. Under blue-laser irradiation at 12.5 W∙mm -2 , the steady-state temperature of light spot remains below 76.7 °C. The constructed laser-driven lighting device exhibits a luminous efficacy of 83.45 lm∙W -1 , a correlated color temperature of 6103 K and a Ra of 85.8. These results indicate that the LuAG:Ce-BN-MAS:Eu composites exhibit great potential for high-color-rendering white LDs.

Thermally induced interfacial reactions between nitride phosphors and glass matrices remain a critical bottleneck in the development of high-performance phosphor-in-glass (PiG) for high-power LED and laser-driven lighting applications. Herein, we address this challenge by the rational glass design to reconcile its glass transition temperature (T g ), structural stabilization and chemical compatibility. By establishing a correlation between structural evolution and interfacial diffusion, we develop a six-component glass matrix (CaF 2 -Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 -B 2 O 3 -Na 2 O-P 2 O 5 ) featuring a low T g (∼453°C) and high chemical inertness. This glass matrix effectively alleviates the thermal degradation of embedded CaAlSiN 3 :Eu 2+ (CASN:Eu 2+ ) phosphors and suppresses interfacial reactions. The resulting CASN:Eu 2+ -PiG achieves a high internal quantum efficiency of ∼96%, and its fluorescence lifetime is relatively reduced by only 0.02 µs. A wLED incorporating Y 3 Al 5 O 12 :Ce 3+ and CASN:Eu 2+ in the PiG exhibits a high color rendering index of 90.4 while maintaining a luminous efficiency of 93.1 lm/W. Furthermore, by tuning the (Y,Gd) 3 Al 5 O 12 :Ce 3+ /CASN:Eu 2+ ratio in the PiG film, laser-driven amber light is achieved for specialized lighting, with a maximum luminous flux of 536.0 lm and a peak luminous efficiency of 101.6 lm/W. This work presents a universal strategy for designing chemically robust, low-melting glass to advance PiG applications in high-power solid-state lighting and specialty light sources.

Filling the cyan gap (470–500 nm) in white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) is crucial for full-spectrum illumination. However, the traditional approach of adding cyan phosphor to red, green, and blue phosphors can lead to reabsorption and color aberrations due to spectral overlap and varying degradation rates among the mixed phosphors. Herein, a blue-cyan-emitting phosphor (λ em = 475 nm) is developed through Si 4+ -P 5+ heterovalent substitution in blue-violet-emitting Rb 3 Y(PO 4 ) 2 :Eu 2+ phosphor (λ em = 425 nm), which can serve as the blue component in WLEDs to fill the cyan gap without adding extra phosphor. Initially, Eu 2+ primarily occupy the Rb2O 12 sites (426 nm) in Rb 3 Y(PO 4 ) 2 :Eu 2+ , with minimal occupation in the Rb1O 7 sites (456 nm) and YO 6 sites (522 nm). The Si 4+ -P 5+ substitution results in a red-shift of the Eu 2+ @Rb1 emission peak from 456 to 475 nm and the preferred occupation of the Rb1 sites by Eu 2+ , synergistically achieving the blue-cyan luminescence. Employing the blue-cyan-emitting phosphor instead of the blue-violet-emitting phosphor in WLEDs significantly improves the color rendering index from 90 to 97.2, thus enhancing the overall color reproduction quality. This research demonstrates a facile composition modification method to modulate the properties of inorganic luminescent materials and provides an alternative solution for full-spectrum healthy lighting.

A propylene oxide (PO)-driven fast sol-gel route followed with a post high temperature calcination were utilized to synthesize Ca x Sr 1- x Al 2 O 4 : Eu 2+ cationic solid solution phosphors with micro-spherical morphologies and improved internal quantum efficiencies. The polyethylene oxide (PEO) was also employed to induce the phase separation of Ca x Sr 1- x Al 2 O 4 : Eu 2+ precursors to get monodispersed spherical morphologies in the sol-gel system. Benefit from uniform copolymerization of each chemical components and pyrolysis of organic matter, Ca, Sr, Al and O were homogenously distributed in the produced Ca x Sr 1- x Al 2 O 4 : Eu 2+ cage like microspheres. It helps to efficiently trap incident light and to improve the PL efficiencies. By changing the ratio of Ca/Sr, infinite solid solution polycrystalline phosphors, Ca x Sr 1- x Al 2 O 4 : Eu 2+ microspheres with x = 0~1, can be obtained and their PL emission can be gradually tuned from green to white to blue. Micro-spherical SrAl 2 O 4 : Eu 2+ , Ca x Sr 1- x Al 2 O 4 : Eu 2+ and CaAl 2 O 4 : Eu 2+ phosphors exhibited internal quantum efficiencies as high as 71.1, 35.3~45.9 and 75.3%, respectively.

To explore a new family of phosphate phosphors for application in ultraviolet-based light emitting diodes (LEDs), novel promising blue emission solid solution phosphors, Ca1−xSrxHf4(PO4)6:Eu2+, with efficient and controllable photoluminescence were synthesized and characterized in the full range of 0 ≤ x ≤ 1. To deeply understand the relationship between the structure and properties of the phosphors, the phase purities, crystal structures and linear structural evolutions of Ca1−xSrxHf4(PO4)6:Eu2+ solid solutions were investigated in detail by FT-IR spectroscopy and Rietveld structure refinement of their powder XRD patterns and verified by high transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The linear structural evolutions induced controllable blue emission with high quantum efficiency and excellent thermal stability in the Ca1−xSrxHf4(PO4)6:Eu2+ solid-solution phosphors. Moreover, the photoluminescence properties in Ca1−xSrxHf4(PO4)6:Eu2+ can be optimized by adjusting the components. The mechanism of the controllable luminescence properties was also investigated in detail. Excellent thermal stability was obtained in Ca1−xSrxHf4(PO4)6:Eu2+, and the thermal quenching mechanism was investigated. Finally, white LEDs were fabricated and their electroluminescence properties were investigated. This simple and effective method to optimize the photoluminescence properties of phosphors can be used for designing other novel solid-solution phosphors.

Artificial light sources have a significant impact on the cultivation of houseplants. In this work, a novel single-phase dual-emission phosphor, Ca18Na3Y(PO4)14:Eu2+,Mn2+ (CNYPO:Eu2+,Mn2+), was synthesized and the emission spectra were modulated by co-doping of Mg2+ to better match the absorption of plants. The occupancies of Eu2+, Mn2+ and Mg2+ are analyzed by using the data of bond length from XRD Rietveld refinements and the emission spectra. The energy transfer process from Eu2+ to Mn2+ is proved through the photoluminescence spectra and decay curves. Benefiting from the efficient energy transfer, two broadband emissions peaking at 500 and 650 nm can be achieved, which meets the requirements of plant growth, and the luminescence colour can be tuned from cyan to white and finally to red by changing the ratio of Mn2+ to Eu2+. The internal quantum efficiency of CNYPO:0.18Eu2+,0.18Mn2+ is 76.8% under 340 nm excitation. The introduction of Mg2+ can regulate the occupation sites of Eu2+ and the emission peak position, improve the responsiveness to the plant absorption spectra, and tune the luminescence colour to white. Finally, a white light-emitting diode (WLED) device fabricated using CNYPO:0.18Eu2+,0.18Mn2+,2.16Mg2+ on a 365 nm chip has a high colour rendering index of 89.0 and a low correlated colour temperature of 3580 K, indicating that the prepared phosphor has potential applications in plant lighting and WLEDs.

Persistent light-emitting materials (PLMs), which have the potential to store and release light energy after light irradiation, are receiving increasing attention for their role in prolonging the lifetime of photogenerated electrons for the development of photocatalysts with round-the-clock applications. In this paper, a double S-scheme Sr 2 MgSi 2 O 7 :Eu 2+ ,Dy 3+ /ZnIn 2 S 4 /UiO-66-NH 2 (SZU) heterojunction with round-the-clock catalytic activity was prepared by hydrothermal self-assembly method. The photocatalytic performance of the SZU heterojunction for RhB(MB) degradation was significantly improved compared with the pristine ZnIn 2 S 4 and UiO-66-NH 2 . The SZU heterojunction has excellent catalytic degradation performance for RhB (MB), and the removal rate of RhB (MB) reaches 72.2 % (81.7 %) after visible light irradiation for 40 (60) minutes. After the end of light, the total removal rate of RhB (MB) reached 86.7 % (96.8 %) when the catalysis continued for several hours under dark conditions, which was 14 % and 15 % higher than that under visible light irradiation, respectively. Based on the characteristics of SMS photoluminescence, combined with a large number of photocatalytic experiments, The sustained photocatalytic activity was enhanced under both daytime and darkness conditions, not only because of the production of SZU complexes, which prolonged the visible light response of ZnIn 2 S 4 , but also because of the construction of double S-scheme heterojunctions, which facilitates the light storage capacity, charge transfer, and the separation of photo-induced charge carriers and effectively promoted the photocatalytic activity of the photocatalysts. This work contributes to a deeper understanding of the design of round-the-clock photocatalysts, and provides a useful exploration for the practical application of photocatalytic technology.

(Sr, Ca)AlSiN 3 :Eu 2+ (SCASN) phosphors are widely used in white LEDs due to their excellent red spectral performance. However, exposure to high temperature, high humidity, and sulfur-containing environments significantly degrades their performance and long-term stability. Herein, a rapid plasma-assisted deposition technique is employed to apply an ultrathin Si-based nanolayer onto SCASN (SCASN-Coated), enhancing its durability under such harsh conditions. Accelerated aging tests conducted at 100 °C, 100 % relative humidity (RH), and in a sulfur-containing atmosphere reveal that unmodified SCASN retains only 24.1 % of its initial luminous intensity after 1008 h, whereas the SCASN-Coated preserves approximately 41.2 % of their original brightness without compromising intrinsic luminescent properties. First-principles calculations and molecular dynamics simulations further elucidate that SCASN has a strong chemical adsorption effect on SO 2 (−3.056 eV). And the combined presence of SO 2 and H 2 O promotes the displacement of Ca 2+ ions, accelerating degradation. The protective SiO 2 nanolayer drastically reduces the SO 2 adsorption energy (−0.124 eV) and inhibits Ca 2+ ion migration. This surface protection strategy not only augments the resilience of SCASN phosphors under extreme conditions but also provides research paradigm into the degradation mechanisms, thereby offering new avenues for extending the service life of LED devices in challenging environments.

In this study, we propose a novel strategy to reduce Eu 2 O 3 to Eu 2+ in the 34.88P 2 O 5 -13.57B 2 O 3 -34.88ZnO-16.67KBr (PBZB) glass system by introducing (NH 4 ) 2 HPO 4 as a reducing phosphorus source. Photoluminescence (PL), photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectral and UV–Vis absorption spectral analyses revealed that the emission peak at 325 nm excitation originates from the 4f 6 5d 1 → 4f 7 transition of Eu 2+ , confirming the reduction efficacy of (NH 4 ) 2 HPO 4 . Furthermore, incorporating 7.14 % Mn 2+ into PBZB glass and adjusting the concentration of Eu 2 O 3 demonstrated that Eu 2+ doping significantly enhances the red emission of Mn 2+ at 630 nm. Specifically, when the Eu 2 O 3 concentration is 0.12 mol%, the Mn 2+ emission intensity reaches its peak, with a 32.6 % increase in photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). However, further increasing the Eu 2 O 3 concentration leads to a decrease in Mn 2+ emission intensity and the appearance of Eu 3+ emission peaks, indicating a limited reduction capacity. Emission spectrum analysis showed a Eu 3+ reduction rate of 76.09 %. The effective energy transfer mechanism from Eu 2+ to Mn 2+ was verified through spectral overlap and decay curve analysis, with calculated energy transfer efficiency being similar to the PLQY increment. This study simplifies the Eu 3+ reduction process and provides a new method for optimizing Mn 2+ red emission in glass.

Increasing demand for non-contact temperature sensing, in this paper, Li 4 SrCa(SiO 4 ) 2 (LSCS) phosphor doped with Eu 2+ was prepared, and the temperature dependence of its optical properties was studied in detail. The conformation of Eu 2+ double-sites in LSCS host has been veritied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrum, photoluminescence spectra and decay curves. The temperature dependence of emission intensity and decay lifetime of Eu 2+ in the range of 303 K–473 K has been studied systematically. Under the excitation of ultraviolet light (at 363 nm), the color of LSCS: x Eu 2+ ( x = 0.05) phosphor gradually changed from blue-violet (at 303 K) to light yellow (at 473 K) with the increase of temperature. The highest absolute sensitivity ( S a ) of the material is 0.051 K −1 (at 473 K) and the relative sensitivity ( S r ) is 3.18% K −1 (at 423 K) under fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) detection technology. In addition, the temperature resolution ranges from 0.17 to 0.35 K. Based on fluorescence lifetime thermometry, the maximum of S a is 1.47 K −1 (at 363 K) and S r is 15.0% K −1 (at 573 K), obviously superior to the previously reported inorganic optical thermometry materials. Moreover, LSCS: Eu 2+ has good signal recognition ability because of the different response of the two emission centers to temperature. Therefore, we believe that LSCS: Eu 2+ has a good application prospect in the field of spatial/temporal optical temperature measurement.

Green phosphor is an essential component in phosphor-converted white light-emitting diodes (pc-LEDs). Herein, a novel green-emitting phosphate phosphor Sr 8 ZnY(PO 4 ) 7 :Eu 2+ (SZYP:Eu 2+ ) was synthesized through hydrothermal reaction method. The crystal structure, photoluminescence properties as well as thermal stability of SZYP:Eu 2+ were investigated systematically. SZYP:Eu 2+ can be efficiently excited by n-UV light in the range from 220 to 550 nm and shows a broad emission band centered at 520 nm with a full width at half maximum of 86 nm. The optimized doping concentration of Eu 2+ was determined to be 0.02 mol. With the increase of Eu 2+ content, a subtle red shift about 4 nm in emission spectra was detected. SZYP:Eu 2+ also shows comparable thermal stability (45% at 150 °C) and it can be further varied to 44, 40 and 51% by co-doping with Pr 3+ , Tm 3+ and Yb 3+ , respectively. The white LED device blended with SZYP:Eu 2+ shows excellent electroluminescence (EL) properties. The low correlated color temperature (4791 K) and ultrahigh color rendering index (95.8) imply that this phosphor may find a potential application in high-quality white LEDs.
