Ultrathin lead bromide perovskite platelets spotted with europium(ii) bromide dots

2019

We describe here the preparation of a novel nanohybrid comprising a two-layer cesium lead bromide nanoplatelet, [CsPbBr3]PbBr4 NPL, containing europium(II) bromide (EuBr2) nanodots, by ultrasound/heating treatment of toluene dispersions of the CsPbBr3 nanomaterial in the presence of EuBr2 nanodots. The hybrid nanoplatelets exhibit strong excitonic and narrow emission peaks characteristic of ultrathin NPLs at 430 and 436 nm, respectively.

Europium(III)-doped A(2)Hf(2)O(7) (A = Y, Gd, Lu) nanoparticles: Influence of annealing temperature, europium(III) concentration and host cation on t…

2016

The detailed analyses of structure and luminescence of europium(III)-doped A(2)Hf(2)O(7) (A = Y, Gd, Lu) nanoparticles is presented. Samples were prepared by time and cost effective combustion method that utilize polyethylene glycol both as a chelating agent and as a fuel, with different europium(III) concentrations (from 1 to 12 at.%), annealed at temperatures ranging from 800 to 1400 degrees C, and with alternating A(3+) cation in the A(2)Hf(2)O(7) host. Then, structural variations between materials were analysed by Xray diffraction and structural refinement, while the changes in the luminescence were assessed from the Judd-Ofelt analyses of emission spectra. Nanoparticles prepared at the…

Effects of Thermal Treatment on the Structure of Eu:YAG Nanopowder

2007

Eu:YAG nanopowder precursors were obtained by co-precipitation of aluminium, yttrium and europium nitrates solution with ammonia. The hydroxides precursors were calcined at different temperatures from 900 to 1200°C as a function of holding time (1, 2 and 6 hours). The presence of Eu3+ ions in the matrix was confirmed by Energy Dispersive X-rays analysis. X-Ray Diffraction investigation by the Rietveld method shows that the sample treated at 900°C for 1 hour is essentially the garnet phase with the minor presence of hexagonal and monoclinic metastable phases. The Eu3+ ions are incorporated into the garnet phase, as is suggested by the lattice parameter value being larger than that in literat…

Europium doped zirconia luminescence

2010

Abstract The luminescence properties and crystalline structure of ZrO2:Eu nanocrystals doped with different concentrations of Eu were studied. Luminescence from the Eu2+ state was not observed even if the electrons and holes were created up to ∼1019 cm−3; thus it was suggested the Eu3+ was not an efficient trap for electrons possibly due to Eu3+ negative charge relative to the crystalline lattice. The mutual interaction between Eu3+ ions was not strong up to 5 at.% concentration. The stabilization of ZrO2 tetragonal as well as cubic structure by Eu3+ is possible.

Studies of radiation defects in cerium, europium and terbium activated oxyfluoride glasses and glass ceramics

2015

Abstract Terbium, cerium and europium activated oxyfluoride glasses and glass ceramics have been studied by thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) and optical absorption techniques after the X-ray irradiation. A creation of colour centres in oxyfluoride glass matrix and TSL peaks depending on the activator type were observed. LaF 3 and rare earth activators were analysed by SEM–EDS.

Solution-processed thin films based on sandwich-type mixed (phthalocyaninato)(porphyrinato) europium triple-deckers: Structures and comparative perfo…

2012

The solution-processed thin films of a series of three sandwich-type mixed (phthalocyaninato)(porphyrinato) europium complexes with different numbers of hydroxyl groups at the meso-substituted phenyl groups of porphyrin ligand 1–3 were prepared by a quasi-Langmuir–Shafer (QLS) method. Examination by spectroscopic methods revealed that J-type aggregates have been formed with the increasing degree of order of molecular stacking 1 < 2 < 3 films. The IR and XRD results reveal that, a dimeric supramolecular structure was formed depending mainly on the π–π interaction between the tetrapyrrole cores of neighboring triple-decker molecules, which, as the building blocks, self-assembled into the targ…

Synchrotron radiation studies on luminescence of Eu2+-doped LaCl3 microcrystals embedded in a NaCl matrix

2012

Abstract LaCl3:Eu2+ microcrystals dispersed in the NaCl matrix have been obtained in the NaCl–LaCl3(1 mol.%)–EuCl3(0.1 mol.%) crystalline system. The low-temperature luminescent properties of these microcrystals have been studied upon the VUV and UV excitation by the synchrotron radiation. The spectroscopic parameters as well as decay time constants of Eu2+-doped LaCl3 host have been established. The excitation mechanism of divalent europium centers through energy transfer and reabsorption is discussed.
