Abstract
Using LaBWO6 as a host, we have prepared a series of erbium-doped lanthanum borotungstates (LBTs), La1 – xErxBWO6, and Yb/Er-codoped La1 –x–yYbxEryBWO6, which crystallize in monoclinic crystal system (sp. gr. P21). The materials have been synthesized by ceramic route and a sol–gel (Pechini) process, followed by annealing. We have studied the spectral properties of the synthesized LBTs exhibiting the luminescence in the green spectral region upon the excitation in the near-infrared region. The highest efficiency, with Ben = 0.55%, has been obtained for La0.97Yb0.02Er0.01BWO6 composition. Sol–gel synthesis (Pechini process) has been shown to be the optimal approach for the preparation of such phosphors. Due to a combination of high upconversion efficiency and thermal stability, the synthesized upconversion phosphors can be used for the design of white light sources pumped in the near-IR spectral region.
期刊介绍:
Inorganic Materials is a journal that publishes reviews and original articles devoted to chemistry, physics, and applications of various inorganic materials including high-purity substances and materials. The journal discusses phase equilibria, including P–T–X diagrams, and the fundamentals of inorganic materials science, which determines preparatory conditions for compounds of various compositions with specified deviations from stoichiometry. Inorganic Materials is a multidisciplinary journal covering all classes of inorganic materials. The journal welcomes manuscripts from all countries in the English or Russian language.
