Synthesis and characterization of Ce3+-, Pr3+-, Tm3+-doped Li6Lu(BO3)3 phosphors for X-ray and neutron imaging

Improving thermal stability of novel single-component white-light emitting phosphor Ca8MgLu(PO4)7:Tm3+, Dy3+ by back-energy-transfer

“…Among many phosphors, the rare earth-doped inorganic luminescent materials have attracted extensive attention due to their various potential applications in lighting, display, and imaging fields, such as WLEDs, field emission displays, plasma display panels, and X-ray imaging detectors. [10][11][12][13][14] Phosphates are excellent luminescent hosts for rare-earth dopants due to their stable chemical-physical properties, high thermal stability, low costs and strong absorption in the near ultraviolet region. The whitlockite-type β-Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 compounds possess six metal ion sites, in which rare earth ions occupy two eightcoordinated sites and a nine-coordinated site, respectively.…”

KSr4(BO3)3:Pr3+: A new red-emitting phosphor for blue-pumped white light-emitting diodes

“…Kityk, et al [17], and they found the Zn 2+ and Mg 2+ ion doping in the phosphor generates deep traps, which results in slightly longer decay time. In recent years, the Pr 3+ doped borates have drawn abundant interest among the researchers for their use in various optical and optoelectronic devices [18][19][20][21][22]. Especially, the Pr 3+ doped KSr 4 (BO 3 ) 3 compound may be a potential phosphor due to its excellent chemical stable, environmental friendliness and easily productive at temperature below 900 ℃ in air.…”

Investigation of luminescence properties and the energy transfer mechanism of Li6Lu(BO3)3:Ce3+, Tb3+ green-emitting phosphors

“…15 (Li 6 Ln(BO 3 ) 3 (Ln ¼ Gd, Y) were investigated and showed promising results on W-LEDs and nonlinear optics application. 12,[17][18][19] Li 6 Lu(BO 3 ) 3 host was rst synthesized and studied by Yang et al 16 and Fawad et al 20 and it exhibited potential applications for neutron detection scintillator).…”
