The successful synthesis of rare earth doped nano/microcrystals with the desired morphology, uniform monodispersity, and intense infrared emission is of fundamental significance, and would facilitate their application in infrared emission-related miniaturization and integration in optoelectronics. However, simultaneously controlling the morphology and enhancing the infrared emission through simple and effective methods has not been well explored. In this study, via Ca2+ doping with an optimized concentration of 25 mol% in the hydrothermal solution, irregular NaGdF4:Yb/Er submicrocrystals converted into highly uniform submicrorods. Meanwhile, an obvious enhancement of visible upconversion (UC) and near-infrared (NIR) downconversion (DC) emission were obtained, probably due to the improved morphology and lowering the local crystal field symmetry around the rare earth ions induced by Ca2+ doping. Furthermore, Ce3+ ions with an optimized concentration of 2 mol% were codoped to intentionally tailor the branching ratio through efficient energy transfer from Er3+ to Ce3+. As a result, the ∼1530 nm emission intensity of the NaGdF4: 25Ca/2Ce/20Yb/2Er submicrorods increased by about 6.4 times in comparison with the NaGdF4:20Yb/2Er counterpart.

In this work, we co-doped barium (Ba) and zirconium (Zr) in a lithium garnet oxide , to improve its electrochemical properties . In the doping range of y = 0–1.0, the Li 6+y La 3−y Ba y NbZrO 12 (LLBNZO) oxides maintain a cubic crystal structure. A secondary phase of BaZrO 3 emerges when y ≥ 0.75. The ionic conductivity of the developed garnet oxides first increases with Ba-doping in the low doping range and then decreases in the high doping range. It reaches the maximum value in Li 6.5 La 2.5 Ba 0.5 NbZrO 12 when y = 0.5. Cyclic voltammetry shows that the garnet oxides have a wide electrochemical voltage window up to 6 V. The constant-current polarization results on the symmetric cells assembled from Li 6.5 La 2.5 Ba 0.5 NbZrO 12 reveal that this garnet oxide is chemically stable against metallic lithium and has stable cycling performance.

The main inorganic minerals in natural bones are non-stoichiometric hydroxyapatite (HA, Ca 10 [PO 4 ] 6 [OH] 2 ) doped with various trace elements, which may possess important biochemical effects. To investigate the functions of Sr and Si elements in human hard tissues, non-doped HA, trace Si doped HA, Si and Sr codoped HA with the concentration of natural bones are synthesized by hydrothermal method in this study. The samples are characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The biological activities are evaluated via cytotoxicity study, adhesion and proliferation of osteoblast measurement, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assay. All the synthesized materials are HA phase, which have hierarchical structures with oriented HA nanorods assembled into the platy particles. These materials are non-cytotoxic against L929 cells line even at 400 μg/ml powder suspension. The results clearly indicate that the proliferation of L929 cells increases with trace elements doping from trace Si-HA to Si + Sr-HA. The adhesion and proliferation of osteoblast measurement illustrates that proliferation of osteoblasts advances about 1.3 times for Si-HA and about 1.8 times for Si + Sr-HA compared with undoped HA. In general, Si-HA with trace Si element shows enhanced cell differentiation, and Si + Sr-HA dual-doped with Si and Sr elements presents increased biological activity compared with Si-HA.

Titanium and nitrogen codoped LiFePO 4 was synthesized via a simple solid state reaction using TiN as the dopant source. The morphology, structure, valence state and electrochemical performance of all the samples were investigated and compared with the undoped LiFePO 4 . The results showed that the codoped samples maintained an olivine structure with modified lattice parameters and exhibited a prominent improved electrochemical performance. Among all the codoped samples, LiFe 0.94 Ti 0.04 PO 4-σ N 0.04 showed the best rate capability of 108.1 mAh g -1 even at a high rate of 5 C and exhibited a capacity retention of about 94% after 100 cycles at 1 C.

A series of CaNb 2 O 6 : x Sm 3+ (0 ≤
x
≤ 10 mol%) and CaNb 2 O 6 : Sm 3+ , Na + /B 3+ phosphors were synthesized by the solid-state reaction method in air. Their crystal structures and luminescence properties were investigated and analysed, respectively. Host CaNb 2 O 6 emitted blue light with excitation 270 nm. CaNb 2 O 6 : x Sm 3+ phosphors showed a systematically varied hue from blue to white by changing Sm 3+ ion concentration from 0 to 10 mol% with excitation of 270 nm and their chromaticity coordinates were the regions from (0.1665, 0.1767) to (0.2484, 0.2260). Luminescence properties of CaNb 2 O 6 : Sm 3+ phosphor were tuned and improved significantly by codoping B 3+ or Na + ions. Energy transfer between Nb \(_{\mathbf {2}}\textit {O}_{\mathbf {6}}^{\boldsymbol {2-}}\) group and Sm 3+ ion was observed and analysed via luminescence properties. The luminous mechanism was explained by energy level scheme and energy transfer process in CaNb 2 O 6 : Sm 3+ phosphor. The strong excitation band peaking at ∼ 407 nm indicated that the CaNb 2 O 6 : Sm 3+ , Na + /B 3+ phosphor has a potential application in white light-emitting diodes based on near-UV LED chip.

Tb 3+ ions doped optical materials have emerged as gain media for green fiber lasers. Dy 3+ ions were proposed as a sensitizer of Tb 3+ ions in glasses to increase the excitation efficiency, yet a systematic understanding of the impact of Dy 3+ doping on spectroscopic and physiochemical properties of glasses remains lacking. Here, using Tb 3+ /Dy 3+ doped fluoride glass as a model system, we reveal that Dy 3+ doping not only enhances Tb 3+ emission intensity, but also increases the thermal stability of fluoride glasses. Detailed spectroscopic characterizations indicate that co-doping Dy 3+ ions boosts visible luminescence intensity of Tb 3+ ions in fluoride glasses due to sensitization of Tb 3+ by Dy 3+ ions. Importantly, we deeply research the energy transfer process , ascertain several important factors affecting energy transfer efficiency and propose optimal doping concentrations of Tb 3+ and Dy 3+ ions for visible emission. We envisage that our finding provides a new perspective for the synthesis of Tb 3+ -doped fluoride glasses with enhanced thermal stability, and may be extended for the fabrication of Tb 3+ -activated optical fibers .

In this paper, facile synthesis of CaAlSiN 3 :Ce 3+ yellow-emitting phosphors under atmospheric pressure at a moderate temperature and their photoluminescent properties are reported. The prepared CaAlSiN 3 :Ce 3+ phosphors exhibit a broad yellow emission band positioned at 580 nm and covering a bandwidth of 150 nm. The thermal stability of CaAlSiN 3 :Ce 3+ phosphors shows obvious superiority than the commercial YAG: Ce 3+ phosphor, indicating its promising application prospect in power LEDs . In addition, the enhancement of red-light component for CaAlSiN 3 :Ce 3+ phosphor is demonstrated by co-doping Eu 2+ ions. This study offers a facile route to prepare CaAlSiN 3 :Ce 3+ yellow-emitting phosphors, which may be used as a promising candidate for high performance white LEDs .

A series of Eu 2+ /Cr 3+ co-doped BaAl 12 O 19 phosphor was synthesized by traditional high temperature solid stated method, and the temperature-sensitive characteristic of the phosphor was researched. Due to the temperature sensitivity of the fluorescence lifetime of Cr 3+ , the thermometry based on fluorescence lifetime can be realized. Furthermore, the emissions of Eu 2+ ion and Cr 3+ ion can be well separated, which shows the excellent signal recognition ability of this phosphor. The Eu 2+ /Cr 3+ co-doped BaAl 12 O 19 phosphor can be used for the thermometry based on fluorescence intensity ratio. A dual-mode optical thermometry is proposed and researched in the temperature range of 293–563 K by using the decay lifetime of Cr 3+ emission and in the temperature range of 295–476 K by using the fluorescence intensity ratio of Eu 2+ to Cr 3+ as temperature readout. The maximum values of relative sensitivity are 0.466% K −1 at 363 K and 0.259% K −1 at 476 K. The Eu 2+ /Cr 3+ co-doped BaAl 12 O 19 phosphor has excellent optical temperature characteristic , and its dual-mode thermometry characteristics provide convenience for the application of this material. This phosphor has potential application prospects in the field of optical thermometry.

In contrast to well-known multiple and fixed upconversion (UC) emission bands from lanthanide (Ln 3+ ) ions activated luminescent materials, room temperature wavelength-tunable single-band UC emissions are designed and demonstrated in Ln 3+ ions/transition metal Yb 3+ /Mn 2+ codoped fluoride perovskites ABF 3 (A = K + , Rb + , and Cs + ; B = Mg 2+ , Zn 2+ , and Cd 2+ ). Upon 976 nm laser excitation, the perovskites ABF 3 :Yb 3+ , Mn 2+ exhibit intense single band UC emission centered at 550–610 nm depending on the substitution of the A + and / or the B 2+ species in ABF 3 . Crystal structure and luminescent properties analysis show that the UC emission should originate from the transitions of super-exchange coupled Yb 3+ –Mn 2+ pair. The Stokes and UC emission properties, UC luminescence decay behaviors, as well as temperature dependent UC emission properties of ABF 3 :Yb 3+ , Mn 2+ are investigated and discussed in detail. The intense room (or high) temperature UC emission and ultralong UC decay lifetimes (≈25–45 ms) clearly reveal that the perovskites ABF 3 :Yb 3+ , Mn 2+ can be potentially applied in the fields of time-resolved luminescence imaging, lighting, and solid state lasers.

Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 nanocrystals with different content of dopant were successfully prepared via a facile hydrothermal method. The purity, morphology, element distribution, chemical state and up-conversion (UC) photoluminescence (PL) of PbTiO 3 nanocrystals affected by Ho 3+ dopant are investigated systematically. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results illustrate that PbTiO 3 samples with the doping Ho 3+ concentration ranging from 0 to 5 mol-% are perovskite structure. The doping Ho 3+ ions have no change on the crystal structure of perovskite PbTiO 3 . Owing to the non-equivalent substitution of Ho 3+ to Ti 4+ in PbTiO 3 , the particle size of Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 samples is decreased as well as the particle agglomeration is detected. Moreover, Ho and Yb ions have uniform distributions in the PbTiO 3 nanoparticles as the presence of Ho 3+ and Yb 3+ cations. The up-conversion spectra demonstrate that Ho/Yb co-doped PbTiO 3 samples have up-conversion emissions centered at 550 nm, 660 nm and 755 nm, corresponding to the transitions of 5 F 4 ( 5 S 2 )→ 5 I 8 , 5 F 5 → 5 I 8 and 5 S 2 ( 5 F 4 )→ 5 I 7 of Ho 3+ ions. Additionally, the effect of temperature on the UC PL property of Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 system is further investigated. The sensitivity and the trend of Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 samples in temperature from 298 k to 493K are calculated on the basis of fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) method. Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 nanocrystals are verified the high potential in the optical temperature sensing.

Nitrogen/sulfur co-doped disordered porous biocarbon was facilely synthesized and applied as anode materials for lithium/sodium ion batteries. Benefiting from high nitrogen (3.38 wt%) and sulfur (9.75 wt%) doping, NS 1-1 as anode materials showed a high reversible capacity of 1010.4 mA h g −1 at 0.1 A g −1 in lithium ion batteries . In addition, it also exhibited excellent cycling stability, which can maintain at 412 mAh g -1 after 1000 cycles at 5 A g −1 . As anode materials of sodium ion batteries , NS 1-1 can still reach 745.2 mA h g −1 at 100 mAg -1 after 100 cycles. At a high current density (5 A g -1 ), the reversible capacity is 272.5 mA h g −1 after 1000 cycles, which exhibits excellent electrochemical performance and cycle stability. The preeminent electrochemical performance can be attributed to three effects: (1) the high level of sulfur and nitrogen; (2) the synergic effect of dual-doping heteroatoms; (3) the large quantity of edge defects and abundant micropores and mesopores , providing extra Li/Na storage regions. This disordered porous biocarbon co-doped with nitrogen/sulfur exhibits unique features, which is very suitable for anode materials of lithium/sodium ion batteries.

Highly efficient cyan-emitting phosphor materials are indispensable for closing the cyan gap in spectra of the traditional phosphor-converted white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) to achieve high-quality full-spectrum white lighting. In this work, bright cyan-emitting Ca 3 Ga 4 O 9 (CGO):0.02Bi 3+ ,0.07Zn 2+ phosphor is developed to bridge the cyan gap. Such a Bi 3+ ,Zn 2+ codoping enhances the cyan emission of CGO:0.02Bi 3+ by 4.1 times due to the influence of morphology and size of phosphor particles, charge compensation and lattice distortion. Interestingly, codoping La 3+ ions into the current system can achieve a photoluminescence tuning of CGO:0.02Bi 3+ from cyan to yellowish-green by crystallographic site engineering. Besides, Bi 3+ –Eu 3+ energy transfer is successfully realized in CGO:0.02Bi 3+ ,0.07Zn 2+ , n Eu 3+ phosphors and the emission color tuning from cyan to orange is observed. The investigation of thermal quenching behaviors reveals that the incorporation of Zn 2+ and La 3+ improves the thermal stability of CGO:0.02Bi 3+ . Finally, CGO:0.02Bi 3+ ,0.07Zn 2+ ,0.10Eu 3+ phosphor is employed to obtain a single-phased warm WLED device. A full-spectrum WLED device with remarkable color rendering index (Ra) of 97.4 and high luminous efficiency of 69.72 lm W −1 is generated by utilizing CGO:0.02Bi 3+ ,0.07Zn 2+ phosphor. This result suggests the important effect of CGO:0.02Bi 3+ ,0.07Zn 2+ phosphor on closing the cyan gap, providing new insights of cyan-emitting phosphors applied in full-spectrum white lighting.
