Accurate measurement of temperature during photothermal conversion is crucial for the application of up-conversion photothermal conversion fluorescent materials. In this paper, a kind of SrIn 2 O 4 : Yb 3+ , Er 3+ up-conversion phosphor with strong photothermal conversion ability and high-precision dual-mode temperature measurement performance was synthesized by high-temperature solid-state method. Under 980 nm laser excitation, a high-precision temperature measurement with a maximum relative sensitivity of S r = 1.2 %K −1 was achieved by using the fluorescence intensity ratio of the thermally coupled energy level pairs ( 2 H 11/2 / 4 S 3/2 ) of Er 3+ ions. In addition, we found that the luminescent color of the synthesized phosphor can span a large color gamut interval with the rise of temperature, realizing the optical temperature measurement based on temperature-induced color coordinate shift. On this basis, we realized dual-mode temperature monitoring and temperature self-calibration during the photothermal conversion process of SrIn 2 O 4 : Yb 3+ , Er 3+ phosphors. These results are of great practical value for the application of photothermal conversion fluorescent materials in micro-zone heating and temperature self-monitoring.

It has been challenging to develop lanthanides doped chiral inorganic materials that emit circularly polarized light by upconversion. Here, we report the synthesis of bismuth oxychloride based inorganic nanostructured phosphor co-doped with Er 3+ , Yb 3+ , modified with chiral sugar alcohols (D-BYE), which exhibited a strong up-conversion circularly polarized luminescence (UC-CPL) property in the visible range. Compared with the achiral bismuth oxychloride phosphor co-doped with Er 3+ , Yb 3+ (A-BYE), D-BYE significantly improved the intensity of upconversion luminescence. Our studies showed that an accelerated rate of radiative transition induced by electromagnetic field and the Mie scattering effect may be responsible for the enhanced upconversion luminescence. Our works provide a new strategy to realize enhanced upconversion of circularly polarized luminescence with rare earth doped chiral inorganic materials.

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.

Photon upconversion holds tremendous promise in many fields, including photovoltaics, biological imaging, and multi-dimensional display. However, insufficient upconversion emission intensity still limits its utilization for many potential applications. Herein, a type of VO2 (B) nanoflowers with unique size and high crystalline quality, exhibiting a bright upconversion emission, is reported. More importantly, a new method, i.e., higher power-sensitization, is established to improve upconversion emission signals. After higher power-sensitization, a drastic increase in upconversion emission intensity to 553-fold and 158-fold was observed for green and total emissions, respectively, at a pump power of 90 mW. At the same time, the upconversion of light at low excitation powers (2, 90 mW) was observable by the naked eye. We identified that the welded structure, favouring the energy transfer from sensitizers to activators, was key for achieving this enhancement. This study not only suggests a new pathway for building high-efficiency upconversion systems, but also provides insights for improving the practical applications of upconversion materials.

12CaO · 7Al2O3 doped with lanthanide is characterized by remarkable and technologically important up-conversion emission. However, the low up-conversion efficiency still remains the main limitation for practical applications. To improve the efficiency, bivalent alkaline earth ions (Mg2+, Sr2+, Ba2+)-tridoped Tm3+/Yb3+/12CaO · 7Al2O3 were synthesized through a high-temperature solid-state reaction. The up-conversion luminescence properties of the samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction, fluorescence spectral measurement pump power, and fluorescence decay curves. The luminescence intensity of samples was significantly enhanced by bivalent alkaline earth ions. 12CaO · 7Al2O3 doped with Sr2+ ions has stronger effects on up-conversion enhancement, which is better than Mg2+ and Ba2+. The up-conversion emission intensity was enhanced by 318 times and the red emission intensity by 218 times with 10 mol% Sr2+ ion. Additionally, the blue and red up-conversion emission peaks at 475 and 650 nm corresponding to energy transitions of 1G4 → 3H6 and 1G4 → 3F4, 3F2 → 3H6 were characterized using steady-state rate equations.

Phosphor conversion light-emitting diode (PC-LED) technology has become a focal point of research for portable near-infrared light sources in recent years. One of the crucial aspects is to develop phosphor materials that can be effectively stimulated by commercial available blue light. Unfortunately, efficient phosphors in the NIR-II that can be excited by commercial blue light are particularly scarce. In this study, Mg 4 Ta 2 O 9 :0.04Cr 3+ ,0.03Yb 3+ ,0.07Li + (MTO:0.04Cr 3+ ,0.03Yb 3+ ,0.07Li + ) phosphor was synthesized using the high temperature solid phase method, and its emission spectrum covered the first and second near-infrared windows (700–1200 nm). The internal quantum efficiency (IQE) and external quantum efficiency (EQE) are 88.7 % and 45.6 %, respectively, due to the synergistic effect of energy transfer and Li-ion modification. Additionally, the doping of Yb 3+ ions and Li + ions enhances the thermal stability of luminescence. The thermal stability of MTO:0.04Cr 3+ ,0.03Yb 3+ ,0.07Li + and MTO:0.04Cr 3+ ,0.03Yb 3+ is 9.81 % and 14.43 % higher, respectively, than that of MTO:0.04Cr 3+ ,0.03Yb 3+ and MTO:0.04Cr 3+ . To evaluate its potential applications, we developed a prototype PC-LED utilizing MTO:0.04Cr 3+ ,0.03Yb 3+ ,0.07Li + phosphor as an emission emitter which demonstrated advantages in biomedical imaging, night vision, and non-destructive testing.

Novel YAG:Ce 3+ , Pr 3+ , Yb 3+ phosphors were synthesized using a high temperature solid state reaction method. The XRD patterns revealed that the obtained samples belong to the single phase YAG. The optical spectra demonstrated that Pr 3+ could be a bridge to facilitate the energy transfer from Ce 3+ to Yb 3+ in the YAG host. Blue light excited Ce 3+ and a yellow emission from Ce 3+ together with a near infrared emission of Yb 3+ was obtained. The effect of Pr 3+ doping on the energy transfer efficiency was explored. When the doping concentration of Pr 3+ increased, the yellow emission intensities of Ce 3+ decreased and the near infrared emission intensity of Yb 3+ increased monotonously. Hence, the efficiency of energy transfer from Ce 3+ to Yb 3+ is enhanced by the addition of Pr 3+ , implying that the YAG:Ce 3+ , Pr 3+ , Yb 3+ phosphors are promising downshifting materials and have the potential to be used in Si-based solar cells.

In this work, the effects of NaYF 4 :Yb 3+ , Tm 3+ (NYT) structure on the near-infrared light (NIR) photocatalysis performance of ZnO were investigated. α-NYT/ZnO nanocomposites (NCs) and β-NYT/ZnO NCs were fabricated by a high temperature decomposition reaction method. The prepared NCs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV–vis spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectra (PL). The NIR photocatalytic activities of the synthesized α- and β-NYT/ZnO NCs were studied by the degradation of Rhodamine B. The differential photocatalytic activities between of α- and β-NYT/ZnO NCs are believed to be correlated to the effects of α- and β-NYT on the oxygen vacancies and exposed crystal face of ZnO.

Porous hydroxyapatite (HAp) composite fibers functionalized with up-conversion (UC) luminescent and magnetic Na(Y/Gd)F4:Yb3+,Er3+ nanocrystals (NCs) have been fabricated via electrospinning. After transferring hydrophobic oleic acid-capped Na(Y/Gd)F4:Yb3+,Er3+ NCs into aqueous solution, these water-dispersible NCs were dispersed into precursor electrospun solution containing CTAB. Na(Y/Gd)F4:Yb3+,Er3+@HAp composite fibers were fabricated by the high temperature treatment of the electrospun Na(Y/Gd)F4:Yb3+,Er3+ NCs decorated precursor fibers. The biocompatibility test on MC 3T3-E1 cells using MTT assay shows that the HAp composite fibers have negligible cytotoxity, which reveals the HAp composite fibers could be a drug carrier for drug delivery. Because the contrast brightening is enhanced at increased concentrations of Gd3+, the HAp composite fibers can serve as T1 magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents. In addition, the composites uptaken by MC 3T3-E1 cells present the UC luminescent emission of Er3+ under the excitation of a 980 nm near-infrared laser. The above findings reveal Na(Y/Gd)F4:Yb3+,Er3+@HAp composite fibers have potential applications in drug storage/release and magnetic resonance/UC luminescence imaging.

Pure β-KYF4 nanocrystals codoped with Er3+/Yb3+ and Tm3+/Yb3+ were successfully synthesized via the thermal decomposition of trifluoroacetate precursors using oleic acid and octadecylene as coordinating solvents. The up-conversion optical properties of the β-KYF4 nanocrystals with different lanthanide (Ln)-doped ions (Yb3+/Er3+, Yb3+/Tm3+) were investigated. It is found that the colloidal dispersion of β-KYF4:Yb,Er/Tm nanocrystals display strong multiple up-conversion emission spanning from the deep UV-to-NIR regions under 980 nm excitation. Pure β-KYF4 nanocrystals codoped with Er3+/Yb3+ and Tm3+/Yb3+ can emit bright blue, green, yellow, and red emissions visible to the naked eye by adjusting the concentrations of Yb3+ sensitizer ion and Er3+ or Tm3+ activator ions. Moreover, the UC luminescent colors can be tuned for the four colors from blue to green to yellow and finally to red emission in the β-KYF4:X%Yb3+/(0.2%–2%)Er3+ and β-KYF4:25%Yb3+/0.2%Tm3+ colloidal samples. This work substantially expands our understanding of this category of KYF4 upconversion nanocrystals.

ZnWO 4 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ upconversion (UC) nanophosphors were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal reaction at 180 ℃ and subsequent calcination at 700 ℃ for crystallinity improvement and better incorporation of dopant ions. The phosphors were analyzed to emit green (∼533 nm; 2 H 11/2 → 4 I 15/2 transition of Er 3+ ), green (∼546 nm; 4 S 3/2 → 4 I 15/2 ) and red (∼660 nm; 4 F 9/2 → 4 I 15/2 ) light under 980 nm laser excitation, all through a two-photon process. The incorporation of Na + and K + , especially K + , was found to remarkably modify the UC performance of Er 3+ , in terms of red/green intensity ratio (luminescence color), fluorescence lifetime and thermal stability of luminescence, which was rationalized by considering 4 F 7/2 + 4 I 11/2 → 4 F 9/2 cross relaxation and lattice defects/local structure. The optimal ZnWO 4 :0.08Yb 3+ ,0.02Er 3+ phosphor, which contains ∼ 0.97 at.% Na + and 0.16 at.% K + , was demonstrated to have the potential for optical temperature sensing with the thermally coupled 2 H 11/2 / 4 S 3/2 energy levels of Er 3+ .

Lead-free double perovskite (DP) materials have garnered growing interest because of their outstanding optoelectronic attributes. Nevertheless, realizing efficient, multimodal photoluminescence (PL) with adjustable emission spectra within single-host DP materials still poses a formidable hurdle. Herein, Er-based lead-free DPs (Cs2NaErCl6) were developed, which achieves downshift (DS) emissions from visible to near-infrared (NIR) and multicolor upconversion (UC) emissions, resulting from the abundant energy levels of Er3+ ions. Alloying with Yb3+ introduces new Yb3+-Er3+ cross-relaxation (CR) pathways, leading to a 308.5-fold increase in DS red emission and achieving a maximum color purity of 98.63%. Additionally, Yb3+ alloying enhances UC luminescence by 10.8-fold due to its strong absorption cross section around 980 nm. The colors of the UC emission can be adjusted by altering the doping concentration of Yb3+ and laser power density. Spectral analysis and theoretical calculations reveal the high compatibility of Yb3+ ions with Cs2NaErCl6, and the critical role of CR and energy-transfer processes in achieving efficient, tunable, and multimodal PL. Furthermore, the developed DP materials have been utilized in anticounterfeiting, information encoding, and narrow-band NIR photodetectors, expanding the versatile uses of rare-earth (RE)-based DP materials in the optoelectronics field.
