Optimizing Blue Persistent Luminescence in (Sr<sub>1−δ</sub>Ba<sub>δ</sub>)<sub>2</sub>MgSi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7:</sub>Eu<sup>2+</sup>,Dy<sup>3+</sup> via Solid Solution for Use in Point-of-Care Diagnostics
Inorganic persistent luminescent
phosphors are an excellent class of optical reporters for enabling
sensitive point-of-care diagnostics, particularly with smartphone-based
biosensing devices in testing formats such as the lateral flow assay
(LFA). Here, the development of persistent phosphors for this application
is focused on the solid solution (Sr<sub>1−δ</sub>Ba<sub>δ</sub>)<sub>2</sub>MgSi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub>:Eu<sup>2+</sup>,Dy<sup>3+</sup> (δ = 0, 0.125, 0.25, 0.375), which is prepared
using a high-temperature solid-state reaction as confirmed by synchrotron
X-ray powder diffraction. The substitution of barium for strontium
enables control over the Eu<sup>2+</sup> 5d-orbital crystal field
splitting (CFS) as a tool for tuning the emission wavelength while
maintaining luminescence lifetimes >9 min across the composition
range. Thermoluminescence measurements of the solid solution provide
evidence that trap states contribute to the persistent lifetimes with
the trap depths also remaining constant as a function of composition.
Time-gated luminescence images of these compounds are captured on
a smartphone arranged in a layout to mimic a point-of-care test and
demonstrate the viability of using these materials as optical reporters.
Moreover, comparing the blue-emitting (Sr<sub>0.625</sub>Ba<sub>0.375</sub>)<sub>2</sub>MgSi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7:</sub>Eu<sup>2+</sup>,Dy<sup>3+</sup> and the green-emitting SrAl<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>:Eu<sup>2+</sup>,Dy<sup>3+</sup> in a single LFA-type format shows these
two compounds can be detected and resolved simultaneously, thereby
permitting the development of a multiplexed LFA
