Low temperature micro Raman and laser induced upconversion and downconversion spectra of europium doped silver tungstate Ag<inf>2â3x</inf>Eu<inf>x</inf>WO<inf>4</inf> nanorods
Copyright © The Author(s) 2016. All the red emitting europium-doped silver tungstate α-Ag2â3xEuxWO4 (x = 0.01â0.08 mol) phosphor reported herein crystalise as nanorods. The nanorods were structurally characterised by X-ray powder diffraction, Rietveld refinement, low temperature (20 to â190 °C) micro-Raman spectroscopy . The morphology of the nanorods reported herein was confirmed by field emission scanning electron microscopy. The optical properties were studied using low temperature (20 to â190 °C) high resolution laser excited upconversion and downconversion luminescence.EPSRC and Technology Strategy Board (TSB) PURPOSE (TP11/MFE/6/1/AA129F; EP-SRC TS/G000271/1) and CONVERTED (JeS no.

SiO2-GeO2 soot preform as a core for Eu2O3 nanocoating: Synthesis and photophysical study
Nowadays solid state chemists have the possibility of work with low temperature strategies to obtain solid state materials with appropriate physical and chemical properties for useful technological applications. Photonic core shell materials having a core and shell domains composed by a variety of compounds have been synthesized by different methods. In this work we used silica-germania soot prepared by vapor-phase axial deposition as a core where a nanoshell of Eu2O3 was deposited. A new sol-gel like method was used to obtain the Eu2O3 nanoshell coating the SiO2-GeO2 particles, which was prepared by the polymeric precursor method. The photophysical properties of Eu3+ were used to obtain information about the rare earth surrounding in the SiO2-GeO2@Eu2O3 material during the sintering process. The sintering process was followed by the luminescence spectra of Eu3+ and all the samples present the characteristic emission related to the D-5(0) -> F-7(J) (J=0, 1, 2, 3 and 4). The ratios of the D-5(0) -> F-7(2)/D-5(0) -> F-7(1) emission intensity for the SiO2-GeO2@Eu2O3 systems were calculated and it was observed an increase in its values, indicating a low symmetry around the Eu3+ as the temperature increases.18254154
The Role of the Eu3+ Concentration on the SrMoO4:Eu Phosphor Properties: Synthesis, Characterization and Photophysical Studies
Theoretical and experimental study of disordered Ba0.45Sr0.55TiO3 photoluminescence at room temperature
Disordered and crystalline Ba0.45Sr0.55TiO3 (BST) powder processed at low temperature was synthesized by the polymeric precursor method. The single-phase perovskite structure of the ceramics was identified by the Raman and X-ray diffraction techniques. Photoluminescence at room temperature was observed only in a disordered BST sample. Increasing the calcination time intensified the photoluminescence (PL), which reached its maximum value in the sample heat treated at 300 degrees C for 30 h. This emission may be correlated with the structural disorder. Periodic ab initio quantum-mechanical calculations using the CRYSTAL98 program can yield important information regarding the electronic and structural properties of crystalline and disordered solids. The experimental and theoretical results indicate the presence of intermediary energy levels in the band gap. This is ascribed to the break in symmetry, which is responsible for visible photoluminescence in the material's disordered state at room temperature. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
