Tuning Long‐Lived Mn(II) Upconversion Luminescence through Alkaline‐Earth Metal Doping and Energy‐Level Tailoring

Abstract: Crystal‐site engineering of hexagonal‐phase NaGdF4:Mn through alkaline‐earth metal (A2+) doping is used to tune the upconversion luminescence of the Mn2+ dopants. Experimental and calculated results show the ability of A2+ doping to alter the occupancy site of Mn2+ ion from Na+ to Gd3+, thus enabling an emission change from green (520 nm) to yellow (583 nm) upon excitation at 980 nm. The yellow emission of Mn2+ shows a long emission lifetime of 65 ms, more than three times longer than the green emission of Mn2… Show more

“…[ 34–40 ] RE elements are a group of 17 metal elements, including of 15 lanthanide elements (La–Lu) and 2 elements Sc and Y. [ 37,41–46 ] Briefly, RE ions have two ground‐state electron configurations including [Xe]4f n and [Xe]4f n −1 5d 1 . [ 41,47–49 ] The 4f electrons in 4f n configuration are localized core‐like and have a strong correlationship with n .…”

“…[34][35][36][37][38][39][40] RE elements are a group of 17 metal elements, including of 15 lanthanide elements (La-Lu) and 2 elements Sc and Y. [37,[41][42][43][44][45][46] Briefly, RE ions have two ground-state electron configurations including [Xe]4f n and [Xe]4f n−1 5d 1 . [41,[47][48][49] The 4f electrons in 4f n configuration are localized core-like and have a strong correlationship with n. [50][51][52][53][54][55] Localized 4f transitions including the f-d interconfigurational and f-f intraconfigurational transitions endow RE with atomic-like optical transitions, which can be observed as sharp and various absorption or luminescence bands.…”

“…Mn 2+ is one of the promising candidates. The 4 T 1 → 6 A 1 emission of Mn 2+ can be tuned from green to red and even near-infrared by engineering of the coordination environment. Importantly, Mn 2+ was proved to be efficient in tuning the population of excited states of Er 3+ , Tm 3+ , and Ho 3+ through round-trip energy extraction and donation, thereby leading to modulated upconversion emission selectivity . In Ln 3+ , Ce 3+ is typical to generate local structure-sensitive and wavelength-tunable 5d → 4f emissions from ultraviolet to visible, which is similar to d → d transitions.…”

“…The lifetime of Mn 2+ ions could be modulated by crystal-site engineering. Liu et al tuned the luminescence properties of Mn 2+ in core–multishell nanoparticles by doping Ca 2+ or Mg 2+ , changing the output color from green to yellow and prolonging its lifetime [ 49 ]. The spin-forbidden transition of Mn 2+ occurs between 4 T 1 → 6 A 1 , allowing a longer fluorescence lifetime than lanthanide emitters.…”
