<title>Localized excitons in fluoroperovskite LiBaF<formula><inf><roman>3</roman></inf></formula> crystals&…
2003
Two radiating processes in LiBaF3 crystals, fast valence-core transitions (5.4 - 6.5 eV) and slow, so called self-trapped exciton luminescence (about 4.3 eV), are important for practical application. Here we present a study of 4.3 eV luminescence under X-ray excitation and photoexcitation as well as under photostimulation after X-irradiation of undoped and Ag-doped LiBaF3 crystals at various temperatures. It is shown that 4.3 eV luminescence appears under X-ray excitation at least from 85 K to 400 K in both undoped and doped crystals. In all samples studied the excitation spectra of 4.3 eV luminescence contain both the main exciton like band at the edge of fundamental absorption at about 10…
Carborane-stilbene dyads: influence of substituents and cluster isomers on the photoluminescence properties
2017
Two novel styrene-containing meta-carborane derivatives substituted at the second carbon cluster atom (Cc) with either a methyl (Me), or a phenyl (Ph) group, are introduced herein alongside with a new set of stilbene-containing ortho- (o-) and meta- (m-) carborane dyads. The latter set of compounds has been prepared from styrenecontaining carborane derivatives via Heck coupling reaction. High regioselectivity has been achieved for these compounds by using a combination of palladium complexes [Pd2(dba)3]/[Pd(t-Bu3P)2] as a catalytic system, yielding exclusively E isomers. All compounds have been fully characterized and the crystal structures of seven of them analyzed by X-ray diffraction. Th…
Experimental and theoretical studies of polaron optical properties in KNbO3 perovskite
2004
Time-resolved absorption and luminescence spectra have been measured in KNbO3 perovskite crystals after pulsed band-gap excitation by 200 fs laser pulses and 10 ns electron pulses. Quantum chemical calculations using the large unit cell periodic model support the interpretation of the observed transient absorption bands at 0.8 and 1.1 eV as the self-trapped electron polarons and bound hole polarons, respectively. The activation energy for the 2.2 eV green luminescence quenching is 0.05 eV. We suggest that the short lifetime (,15 ns) of the luminescence at RT is caused by the radiative recombination of nearest electron and hole polarons. q 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Photoluminescence activity in natural silica excited in the vacuum-UV range
1999
Abstract We report an experimental study on the optical absorption and photoluminescence detected in samples of natural silica. Our results show that the two emission bands, β (∼3.1 eV) and α E (∼4.3 eV), have an excitation profile in the vacuum ultraviolet region with a maximum at ∼7.5 eV. This excitation profile indicates that, in terms of energy levels of the luminescent defect, there is a transition from a ground state, S 0 , to a second excited state, S 2 , able to excite PL emission, in addition to the well known transition corresponding to the optical absorption band, B 2β . Our data are in a quantitative agreement with `ab initio' calculations carried out for a two-fold coordinated …
X‐ray and pulsed electron beam excited luminescence and optical absorption in KTaO 3 crystals
2005
Pulsed electron beam excited time-resolved transient absorption and luminescence have been studied in nominally pure and Li-doped KTaO3 single crystals. It is found that under electron beam excitation in nominally pure KTaO3 the absorption bands peaks at ∼0.8 eV, ∼1.1 eV and 1.7 eV whereas in KTaO3:Li at ∼1.1 eV and ∼1.7 eV. The transient absorption decay varies over the spectrum thus revealing several short-lived centers. The main luminescence peak is centred at ∼2.7 eV in all KTaO3 specimens. Luminescence decay kinetics observed for the two bands slightly differ indicating different kinds of excited states are involved. (© 2005 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
Cathodoluminescence mechanism of crystalline Gd2SiO5:Ce
1993
Complex luminescence decay kinetics have been observed in Gd2SiO5:Ce crystals under electron beam irradiation. Absorption and photoluminescence excitation spectra, decay kinetics in various excitation bands over a wide range of photon energies from 3.6 to 7.0 eV in the temperature region from 80 to 400 K as well as the spectra of the glow curve creation efficiency at 80 K are examined. It is shown that the free electronic excitations produced, depending on the absorbed photon energy, have different recombination mechanisms finally leading to the radiative transitions between the 5d2E configuration and the 4f configuration of the Ce3+ ion. At hvexc < 6.1 eV a single exponential decay caused …
Peripheral halo-functionalization in [Cu(N^N)(P^P)]+ emitters: influence on the performances of light-emitting electrochemical cells
2016
A series of heteroleptic [Cu(N^N)(P^P)][PF6] complexes is described in which P^P = bis(2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl)ether (POP) or 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene (xantphos) and N^N = 4,4′-diphenyl-6,6′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine substituted in the 4-position of the phenyl groups with atom X (N^N = 1 has X = F, 2 has X = Cl, 3 has X = Br, 4 has X = I; the benchmark N^N ligand with X = H is 5). These complexes have been characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, elemental analyses and cyclic voltammetry; representative single crystal structures are also reported. The solution absorption spectra are characterized by high energy bands (arising from ligand-c…
Optical study of GeO2–PbO–PbF2 oxyfluoride glass singly doped with Pr3+, Nd3+, Sm3+ and Eu3+
2005
Abstract Glasses with composition 50GeO 2 –(50 − x )PbO–5PbF 2 – x LnF 3 (Ln = Pr 3+ , Nd 3+ , Sm 3+ , Eu 3+ ) were synthesised in the bulk form. The content of PbF 2 was constant and amounted to 5 mol% whereas, the concentration of luminescent ions was 0.2 and 2 mol%. Spectroscopic properties (absorption, emission) of optically active ions were studied at room temperature. Oscillator strengths have been used to calculate phenomenological intensity parameters Ω 2,4,6 . Radiative transition probabilities as well as branching ratios and radiative lifetimes of luminescent levels were estimated. Lifetimes and the fluorescence dynamics were studied as a function of concentration. The Judd–Ofelt…
Ultrafast Relaxation Dynamics of Osmium−Polypyridine Complexes in Solution
2013
We present steady-state absorption and emission spectroscopy and femtosecond broadband photoluminescence up-conversion spectroscopy studies of the electronic relaxation of Os(dmbp)(3) (Os1) and Os(bpy)(2)(dpp) (Os2) in ethanol, where dmbp is 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-biypridine, bpy is 2,2'-biypridine, and dpp is 2,3-dipyridyl pyrazine. In both cases, the steady-state phosphorescence is due to the lowest (MLCT)-M-3 state, whose quantum yield we estimate to be <= 5.0 x 10(-3). For Os1, the steady-state phosphorescence lifetime is 25 ns. In both complexes, the photoluminescence excitation spectra map the absorption spectrum, pointing to an excitation wavelength-independent quantum yield. The ultrafa…
Energy transport in silica to oxygen-deficient luminescence centers. Comparison with other luminescence centers in silica and α-quartz
2004
Abstract The transport of energy absorbed by silica glass to oxygen-deficient luminescence centers in was studied in the range of intrinsic absorption from 8.2 up to 35 eV. The low efficiency of exciting those luminescence centers by transport of energy could not be ascribed merely to carrier scattering by the disordered structure. Other centers (Cu + , for example) could be excited in such process with sufficiently high efficiency, albeit lower than that in crystals. The low efficiency of interaction of oxygen deficient centers with quasi-particles is attributed to isolation of these centers in clusters and the non-radiative annihilation of the quasi-particles on the boundaries of these cl…
