X-ray diffraction showed that the replacement of Y3+ with larger Eu3+ resulted in a transformation from orthorhombic (low doping concentrations) through tetragonal (high doping concentrations), reaching monoclinic structure for full replacement in Eu2Mo3O12. The intensity of typical Eu3+ red emission slightly increases in the orthorhombic structure then rises significantly with dopant concentration and has the highest value for the tetragonal Y2Mo3O12:80mol% Eu3+. Further, the complete substitution of Y3+ with Eu3+ in the case of monoclinic Eu2Mo3O12 leads to decreased emission intensity. Lifetime follows a similar trend; it is lower in the orthorhombic structure, reaching slightly higher values for the tetragonal structure and showing a strong decrease for monoclinic Eu2Mo3O12. Temperature-sensing properties of the sample with the highest red Eu3+ emission, Y2Mo3O12:80mol% Eu3+, were analyzed by the luminescence intensity ratio method. For the first time, the peak-sharpening algorithm was employed to separate overlapping peaks in luminescence thermometry, in contrast to the peak deconvolution method. The Sr (relative sensitivity) value of 2.8 % K−1 was obtained at room temperature.

AB  - Powders of Y3NbO7:xDy3+ (x = 0.5, 1, 1.5, 3 and 5 mol%) were produced through a solid-state process. X-ray diffraction investigations confirm the fluorite-type structure (space group ??3̅?) of powders with crystallite size in the range of 19–60 nm. Both the photoluminescence excitation and emission spectra revealed the presence of defects within the material. With different excitation wavelengths, the emission spectra exhibited distinct emission patterns. At each excitation wavelength, the emission was quenched at Dy3+ concentration higher than 1 mol%. The decay time measurements of the highest intensity emission revealed a progressive decrease from 0.472 milliseconds for x = 0.5 mol% to 0.246 milliseconds for x = 5 mol%. The CIE chromaticity coordinates investigation revealed that the emission color may be altered by varying the excitation wavelength, ranging from blue (excitation at 333 nm) and near-white (excitation at 353 nm and 390 nm) to orange (excitation at 457 nm). The chromaticity of emission under 353 nm and 390 nm excitation validated the material's suitability as an almost-white phosphor.

AB  - Pure-phase LiAl5O8:Cr3+ leaf-like particles were synthesized by combustion synthetic route at various concentrations. Both sharp peaks and broad emission photoluminescence are apparent even at room temperature. The most optimum doping concentration of 0.75 % based on lifetime and emission intensity was chosen. Peaks of different configurations were separated by deconvolution from 120 K to 680 K, where 4T2 peak increases in temperature to the expense of the sharp 2E emissions, giving luminescence intensity ratio (LIR) relative sensitivity of 2.8 % K−1 at room temperature. Large separation between Cr3+ R lines marks their LIR as perspective at low temperatures. At high temperatures luminescence lifetime provided for 0.8 % K−1 sensitivity, while line-shift and bandwidth methods are not sensitive enough for thermometric applications. Deconvolution of peaks enabled for 10 % more precise estimation of Debye temperature (679 K).

AB  - Abstract: The municipality of Knjaževac represents an area with rich historical and cultural content favorable geographical location, tourist attractions, unique microclimate, and agricultural products. However, it is accompanied by numerous economic and environmental problems. This paper demonstrates
how certain problems can be solved or existing institutions and the commercial sector can be improved by applying new findings in photonics. It is shown how luminescence spectroscopy in librarianship can provide a precise analysis of the age of library materials and how lasers can successfully remove mold from old books. In agriculture, luminescence spectroscopy is demonstrated to determine the origin and quality of honey and wine, which are characteristic features of this region. Luminescent particles can achieve significantly higher yields of fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants in greenhouses. Finally, hyperspectral cameras monitoring the luminescence of harmful gases show how industrial and landfill pollution levels can be tracked. This enables the implementation of specific measures aimed at improving human and animal health and preserving the environment.

AB  - The surface modification of commercial TiO2 powder with catecholate-type ligand Tiron (TIR) leads to the formation of the interfacial charge transfer complex (ICT) absorbing in the visible spectral range. The estimated band gap energy of the ICT complex (Eg = 2.2 eV) by density functional theory (DFT) calculations agrees with experimental measurements. The surface-modified TiO2 with TIR has enhanced sorption capacity towards Pb2+ ions compared to the pristine one due to the presence of free sulfonate groups. Our attempt to reduce Pb2+ ions to metallic form failed. The TiO2-based ICT complex with TIR can serve as an efficient sorbent to remove Pb2+ ions from the solution without the ability to recover them in metallic form in a photo-driven catalytic process. The photocatalytic ability of the ICT complex to induce oxidation reactions is significantly improved since the complete degradation of organic dye methyl orange occurs under exclusive excitations with visible light photons.

The photocatalytic ability of the ICT complex to induce oxidation reactions is significantly improved since the complete degradation of organic dye methyl orange occurs under exclusive excitations with visible light photons.",

AB  - Eu3+ doped Zirconia coatings were synthesized by the electrochemical plasma electrolytic oxidation method in only 8 min from the pure zirconium substrate. The phase constitution from pure monoclinic to pure tetragonal and exactly in between was achieved by using different concentrations of Na3PO4 and NaAlO2 electrolytes. The complex emission spectra composed of Eu2+, Eu3+, and ZrO2 defect emission greatly depend on the excitation wavelength and phase constitution. Eu3+ photoluminescence properties depend on the phase, which is reflected by the different Stark splitting and different intensities of transitions. Thus, both phase and photoluminescent properties of ZrO2 coatings are fine-tuneable. Judd-Ofelt analysis was performed from the emission and excitation spectra, showing that all 3 intensity parameters depend linearly on the phase constitution, being largest in the pure monoclinic phase. The mixed phase has Judd-Ofelt parameters between those in pure phases. Eu3+ has 2.45 times more preference to get incorporated into the tetragonal than in the monoclinic phase in the mixed phase samples. The general equation for Judd-Ofelt parameters in a compound with mixed constituents and probability of incorporation is introduced, allowing also for a prediction of the spectrum shape based on the Judd-Ofelt parameters of pure-phase compounds. Python software code for estimating the percent of incorporation by multiple linear regression model is also provided.

AB  - Luminescence thermometry is the most versatile remote temperature sensing technique and can be employed from living cells to large surfaces and from cryogenic temperatures to the melting points of metals. Ongoing research aims to optimize the sensitivity of the ratio between the emission intensity from two coupled excited states. However, this approach is inherently limited to temperature-dependent processes involving only the excited states. Here, we develop a novel measurement technique, called luminescence intensity ratio squared (LIR2) for the Yb3+/Er3+ pair, that combines the temperature sensitivity of ground- and excited-state populations. We use Y3Al5O12:Er3+,Yb3+ nanoparticles as a promising model system with both visible and infrared emissions. To apply our method, we record two luminescence spectra at different excitation wavelengths and determine the LIR2 using one emission in each of the two spectra. The LIR2 testing with Y3Al5O12 nanoparticles showed a sensitivity increase of 70% in the visible region and an impressive 230% increase in the NIR region compared to the conventional LIR method. This enhances the measurement precision by a factor of 1.5–2.5. The LIR2 based on the visible upconversion emission is particularly useful for measurements of high temperatures, while the LIR2 based on the downshifted ∼1.5 μm emission may revolutionize temperature measurements of biological samples in the range of physiological temperatures.

AB  - The sensitivity of luminescent Boltzmann thermometers is restricted by the energy difference between the thermally coupled excitement levels of trivalent lanthanides, and their values further decrease with increases in temperature, rendering their use at high temperatures difficult. Here, we demonstrate how to overcome this sensitivity limitation by employing multiparameter and multilevel cascade temperature readings. For this purpose, we synthesized Dy3+:Y2SiO5, a phosphor whose emission is known to begin quenching at very high temperatures. Its photoluminescence-emission features, later used for thermometry, consisted of two blue emission bands centered around 486 nm and 458 nm, and two bands centered around 430 nm and 398 nm, which were only visible at elevated temperatures. Next, we performed thermometry using the standard luminescence-intensity ratio (LIR) method, which employs the 4F9/2 and 4I15/2 Dy3+ levels’ emissions and the multilevel cascade method, which additionally uses the 4G11/2 level and overlapping intensities of 4I13/2, 4M21/2, 4K17/2, and 4F7/2 levels to create two LIRs with a larger energy difference than the standard LIR. This approach yielded a sensitivity that was 3.14 times greater than the standard method. Finally, we simultaneously exploited all the LIRs in the multiparameter temperature readings and found a relative sensitivity that was 30 times greater than that of the standard approach.

AB  - Luminescence thermometry uses temperature-dependent emission of light for remote sensing. Dy3+ is established as a perspective ion for high-temperature probes, but given that there is an infinite number of potential hosts it is impossible to find conventionally the one with the best performance. Judd-Ofelt thermometric model can predict sensitivities but it was not yet experimentally validated on Dy3+ ion. Pure phase CaYAlO4:Dy3+ powder was synthesized via the modified Pechini method. Photoluminescence spectra were taken from 300 to 600 K. Luminescence intensity ratio was estimated using 4 I15/2 and 4 F9/2 levels. Experimentally obtained thermometric parameters and sensitivities showed an excellent matching with those obtained from the Judd-Ofelt, indicating the potential application of the Judd-Ofelt model for fast assessment of Dy3+-doped luminescent sensor thermometric perspective. The maximum absolute and relative sensitivities are ~0.001 K− 1 at 600 K and ~1.4% K− 1 at 300 K, respectively. The optimum temperature range for the CaYAlO4:Dy3+ probe is from 370 to 616 K.

AB  - As yttrium niobates, the Y2O3–Nb2O5 combination exists in two forms: YNbO4 and Y3NbO7, and the latter has been studied as a host for photoluminescent ions to a limited extent [1-3]. In this research, the powders of Y3NbO7:xDy3+ (x = 0.5, 1, 1.5, 3 and 5 mol%) were produced through a solid-state process. X-ray diffraction investigations confirmed the fluorite-type structure (space group ) of powders with crystallite size in the range of 19–60 nm. Both the photoluminescence excitation and emission spectra revealed the presence of defects within the material. With different excitation wavelengths, the emission spectra exhibited distinct emission patterns. At each excitation wavelength, the emission was quenched at Dy3+ concentration higher than 1mol%. The decay time measurements of the highest intensity emission revealed a progressive decrease from 0.472 milliseconds for x = 0.5 mol% to 0.246 milliseconds for x = 5 mol%. The CIE chromaticity coordinates investigation revealed that the emission color may be altered by varying the excitation wavelength, ranging from blue (excitation at 333 nm) and nearwhite (excitation at 353 nm and 390 nm) to orange (excitation at 457 nm). The chromaticity of emission under 353 nm and 390 nm excitation validated the material's suitability as an almostwhite phosphor.

The CIE chromaticity coordinates investigation revealed that the emission color may be altered by varying the excitation wavelength, ranging from blue (excitation at 333 nm) and nearwhite (excitation at 353 nm and 390 nm) to orange (excitation at 457 nm). The chromaticity of emission under 353 nm and 390 nm excitation validated the material's suitability as an almostwhite phosphor.",

AB  - The industrial applications of luminescent coatings for temperature sensing and high-security QR codes have multiple inherent problems in their application (speed, cost, industrial feasibility) or properties (poor adhesion, chemical, thermal stability, or thermal contact). Luminescent coatings created by the electrochemical Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) process have superior properties and can be grown directly within minutes, but are limited to the number of possible luminescent dopants. Having the unlimited possibility for doping on the PEO coatings would provide for superior coatings in all industrially appealing features. Herein, it is shown that adding any luminescent powder results in its partial dissociation and incorporation of its constituents, while it also gets incorporated as a whole. In this manner, alumina coatings are grown with various combinations and concentrations of divalent samarium and europium, and yttrium oxide with trivalent europium ions. These polycrystalline coatings whose microhardness is next to that of the diamond produce intense luminescence in the blue and red regions. Al2O3:Eu2+/Sm2+/3+ + Y2O3:Eu3+ coatings show an excellent temperature sensing performance from the cryogenic up to the high temperatures. Ultimately, the proof-of-concept of the luminescent QR code by the electrochemical process is realized creating a highly secure code with unprecedented environmental stability. © 2023 Wiley-VCH GmbH.

AB  - The understanding of complex relationships between luminescent properties, local symmetry of an emitting center, and the host crystal structure provides a better insight into optical properties of materials. In this work, the alkaline earths CaF2 and BaF2 fluoride crystals doped with 0.1 mol% ErF3 were investigated. The crystals structure has been studied using a synchrotron and laboratory X-ray diffraction. The C3v and C4v sites symmetry were determined using erbium probed high resolution emission spectroscopy (HRPL) at low temperature (LT) of 10 K. The considerable difference in room temperature (RT) optical properties for CaF2 compared to BaF2 crystals was observed. Such difference in absorption intensity of 4.7 times of erbium 4G11/2 manifold in UV, and 7.5 times in green emission from 4S3/2 manifold, could be due to the distinction in the host crystals cationic radius (ΔrCa,Ba) and the dopant-host ionic radius (ΔrCa-Er, ΔrBa-Er). Those Δr differences influence the structure and lead to the following symmetry formation: In CaF2, the C4v and C3v isolated centers were identified, with the determined Er3+- F−i bond lengths of 2.734 Å and 4.735 Å respectively; In BaF2, only C3v isolated centers were identified with the determined Er3+- F−i bond lengths of 5.380 Å. The present work is the first study that takes into account correlations of optical properties, the local symmetry and the structure in mentioned fluorides crystals, and it could be a step forward in the lanthanide doped optical materials systematics.

AB  - 15 μm thick ZrO2:Nd3+ coatings were synthesized by the plasma electrolytic oxidation process from the pure zirconium substrate in an alkaline electrolyte with the addition of five different concentrations of Nd2O3 powders. SEM/EDS images show morphologies characterized by numerous pores and cracks, and uniform distribution of coating constituents. XRD revealed that the monoclinic phase is dominant and that Nd impurity stabilizes the tetragonal phase. The average crystalline size is 27.5 nm. XRF revealed a linear increase in incorporated Nd with increasing Nd2O3 concentration. Photoluminescence spectra are characterized by the NIR emissions at typical energies for Nd3+ ion. The highest emission intensity is obtained with 2.0 g/L Nd2O3. The explicit equation for branching ratios in relation to the emission intensities and Judd-Ofelt parameters is recalculated. A novel, more precise equation for the calculation of the spectroscopic quality factor from the most intense emissions is presented. The spectroscopic quality factor is the lowest in the sample with the highest photoluminescent intensity, and is one of the lowest values, in comparison with the 203 spectroscopic quality factors calculated from the Judd-Ofelt parameters in the literature. The luminescence intensity decreases with temperature by the phonon-assisted cross-relaxation mechanism. The luminescence thermometry by the lifetime of 4F3/2 level shows ∼2% K−1 relative sensitivity in the 300–380 K temperature range.

AB  - This study demonstrated that Ta2O5 coatings formed by plasma electrolytic oxidation of tantalum substrate in an alkaline electrolyte containing Ho2O3 nanoparticles have the potential to be used as a host for Ho3+ ions. Down-conversion photoluminescence (PL) intensity of Ta2O5:Ho3+ is strongly dependent on the concentration of Ho3+ incorporated into Ta2O5 coatings, which depends on the duration of the PEO process and the concentration of Ho2O3 nanoparticles in the electrolyte. In the PL emission spectra, dominant green PL emission bands of Ho3+ centered at around 544 nm are assigned to 5S2,5F4 → 5I8 transitions. Also observed are red and near-infrared emission bands centered at around 658 nm and 758 nm, corresponding to the 5F5 → 5I8 and 5S2,5F4 → 5I7 transitions of Ho3+, respectively. The PL excitation spectra of Ho3+ doped Ta2O5 coatings show a broad band from 250 to 325 nm caused by electron transfer between completely filled 2p orbitals of O2− ions and 4f orbitals of Ho3+ ions and a series of sharp peaks between 325 and 500 nm attributed to direct excitation of Ho3+ ions from the 5I8 ground state to higher levels of the 4f-manifold. Ta2O5:Ho3+ coatings do not exhibit detectable up-conversion PL under 980 nm excitation, but Ta2O5:Ho3+/Yb3+ coatings formed in an alkaline electrolyte containing both Ho2O3 and Yb2O3 nanoparticles do. Also discernible are three groups of up-conversion PL emission bands linked to the 4f–4f transition of Ho3+ ions. With increasing Yb3+ ion concentration in coatings, there is a progressive increase in the PL intensity of all up-conversion emission bands, indicating an efficient energy transfer from excited Yb3+ ions to Ho3+ ions. The potential mechanisms for up-conversion that could result in the population of different excited levels are discussed.

Down-conversion photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra is featured by sharp bands attributed to 4f–4f transitions of Er3+. The most intense green PL emission band centered at 544 nm is attributed to the 4S3/2 → 4I15/2 emission of Er3+. Population paths of the Er3+ down-conversion PL happen under resonant excitation conditions of the Er3+ from ground state 4I15/2 to higher levels, and via a broad violet charge transfer excitation band. Both excitation energy and Er content have an impact on the PL emission response in Ta2O5:Er3+ coatings. The 4I15/2 → 4G11/2 transition is the dominant excitation pathway for the PL emission of Er3+. Up-conversion PL spectra created after 980 nm irradiation of Ta2O5:Er3+ coatings have characteristic 4f–4f transitions of Er3+. The intensity of the green 4S3/2 → 4I15/2 is much higher compared to the red 4F9/2 → 4I15/2 emission of Er3+. Co-doping Ta2O5:Er3+ coatings with sensitizer Yb3+ ions increased the up-conversion emission PL intensity of Er3+ thanks to the efficient energy transfer from Yb3+ to Er3+. The red up-conversion PL intensity of 4F9/2 → 4I15/2 transition increases more rapidly with respect to green emission 4S3/2 → 4I15/2. A phonon-assisted energy back transfer process from Er3+ ions (4S3/2 → 4I13/2) to the neighboring Yb3+ ions (2F7/2 → 2F5/2) leads to enhanced red emission 4F9/2 → 4I15 and decreased green emission 4S3/2 → 4I15/2. © 2023, The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society.

AB  - Upconversion nanoparticles show an increasing interest that is not bound to stop for many years to come. The upconversion is observed in various materials, from transition metals, semiconductor quantum dots, lanthanide ions, organic nanoparticles, and their combinations. The advancement in the field and increase in luminescence efficiency is closely bound to the understanding of the underlying mechanisms behind the upconversion in each of the material types, being that excited state absorption, energy transfer upconversion, cooperative luminescence, triplet–triplet annihilation, etc. Currently, their research state ranges from purely scientific to highly applicative and industry ready, and they all possess their limitations and characteristic spectral appeal. This chapter is concerned with the introduction to these various upconversion nanoparticle types and a description of the most efficient upconversion mechanisms that drive their luminescence, providing a guide—a brief handbook in the world of modern upconverting nanoparticles and systems. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

AB  - Down-conversion photoluminescent ZrO2: Ln3+ (Ln = Eu, Sm, Er, Tb, Ho, Tm, Pr, Gd, Dy) films were prepared by the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) method from a pure zirconium foil, by adding Ln2 O3 particles to a basic electrolyte. Photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra of ZrO2: Ln3+ films are characterized by a broad band of ZrO2 host with a maximum positioned at about 490 nm and sharp emission bands ascribed to 4f–4f transitions of Ln3+ ions. The most intense 4f–4f transitions of Ln3+ are 5 D 0  →  7 F2 at 613 nm for Eu3+,4 G5/2  → 6 H7/2 at 617 nm for Sm3+,4 S3/2  → 4 I15/2 at 548 nm for Er3+,5 D4  → 7 F5 at 543 nm for Tb3+,5 F4  → 5 I8 at 540 nm for Ho3+,1 D2  → 3 F4 at 456 nm for Tm3+,3 P0  → 3 H6 at 608 nm for Pr3+,6 P7/2  → 8 S7/2at 313 nm for Gd3+, and4 F9/2 → 6 H13/2at 578 nm for Dy3+. Ln3+ ions in ZrO2 host can be directly excited into 4f levels. For Eu3+ more efficient excitation is through charge transfer band caused by electron transfer between the completely filled 2p orbital of O2− ions and the partially filled 4f orbital of Eu3+, while for Tb3+ through the inter-configurational 4f8  → 4f7 5d1 transition.

AB  - We report on overcoming the sensitivity limit of Boltzmann's thermometers by utilization of seven thermalized Dy3+ excited states in the Lu1.5Y1·5Al5O12 host. Emission spectra recorded from room temperature to 938 K show transitions originating from seven 4F9/2, 4I15/2, 4G11/2, 4I13/2, 4M21/2, 4K17/2, and 4F7/2 excited levels to the 6H15/2 ground state. We introduce the multi-cascade LIR (McLIR) by extending the conventional, two-thermalized level Boltzmann-type LIR to seven thermalized levels. This approach provides higher energy differences between thermalized levels which results in five times larger sensitivity than in the conventional LIR. Considering energy differences between Dy3+ excited states of 1043, 2464, 4331, and 5089 cm−1, the luminescence thermometry with McLIR provided 0.35, 0.84, 1.47, 1.73% K−1 relative sensitivities at 650 K, respectively, in four different LIR combinations. The validity of the McLIR method and the effectiveness of thermalizations between levels is confirmed with the good theoretical fit of experimental data.

AB  - The sensitivity of luminescence thermometry is enhanced at high temperatures when using a three-level luminescence intensity ratio approach with Dy3+- activated yttrium aluminum perovskite. This material was synthesized via the Pechini method, and the structure was verified using X-ray diffraction analysis. The average crystallite size was calculated to be around 46 nm. The morphology was examined using scanning electron microscopy, which showed agglomerates composed of densely packed, elongated spherical particles, the majority of which were 80–100 nm in size. The temperature-dependent photoluminescence emission spectra (ex = 353 nm, 300–850 K) included Dy3+ emissions in blue (458 nm), blue (483 nm), and violet (430 nm, T 600 K). Luminescence intensity ratio, the most utilized temperature readout method in luminescent thermometry, was used as the testing method: a) using the intensity ratio of Dy3+ ions and 4I15/2→6H15/2/4F9/2→6H15/2 transitions; and b) employing the third, higher energy 4G11/2 thermalized level, i.e., using the intensity ratio of 4G11/2→6H15/2/4F9/2→6H15/2 transitions, thereby showing the relative sensitivities of 0.41% K−1 and 0.86% K−1 at 600 K, respectively. This more than doubles the increase in sensitivity and therefore demonstrates the method’s usability at high temperatures, although the major limitation of the method is the chemical stability of the host material and the temperature at which the temperature quenching commences. Lastly, it must be noted that at 850 K, the emission intensities from the energetically higher levels were still increasing in YAP: Dy3+.

AB  - Temperature sensing from the photoluminescence of MgAl2O4:Cr3+ powder is systematically examined and presented. The material was prepared by the self-propagating high-temperature synthesis method and its structure was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. In this host, Cr3+ ions are in a strong crystal field, so the overlapping emissions from 2E and 4T2 energy levels are observed. Emission and excitation spectra were recorded in the 300 - 540 K temperature range. The broad photoluminescence attributed to 4T2→4A2 transition increases in intensity with an increase in temperature on account of 2E→4A2 emission intensity until 460 K when both emissions start quenching. The emissions were separated by deconvolution at each temperature and used for the luminescence intensity ratio temperature readout method. The obtained relative sensitivity displayed high values in the physiological range, from 3.5 %K-1 at 300 K to 2.9 %K-1 at 330 K, above 2 %K-1 below 400 K, and above 1 %K-1 between 400 K and 540 K.
