AB  - Chalcopyrites are ternary semiconductor compounds with successful applications in photovoltaics. Certain chalcopyrites are well researched, yet others remain understudied despite showing promise. In this study, we use ab initio methods to study CuGaS2, AgGaS2, and CuGaSe2 chalcopyrites with a focus on their less studied solid solutions. We use density functional theory (DFT) to study the effects that atomic configurations have on the properties of a solid solution and we calculate the optical absorption spectra using a many-body perturbation theory. Our theoretical simulations predict that excess of In and Se in the solid solutions leads to narrowing of the band gap and to the broadening of the absorption spectra. Obtained results show promise for possible photovoltaic applications, as well as developed methodology can be used for further study of other promising chalcopyritic compounds.

AB  - We report the procedure for hydrothermal synthesis of ultrasmall Yb3+/Tm3+ co-doped Sr2LaF7 (SLF) upconversion phosphors. These phosphors were synthesized by varying the concentrations of Yb3+ (x = 10, 15, 20, and 25 mol%) and Tm3+ (y = 0.75, 1, 2, and 3 mol%) with the aim to analyze their emissions in the near IR spectral range. According to the detailed structural analysis, Yb3+ and Tm3+ occupy the La3+ sites in the SLF host. The addition of Yb3+/Tm3+ ions has a huge impact on the lattice constant, particle size, and PL emission properties of the synthesized SLF nanophosphor. The results show that the optimal dopant concentrations for upconversion luminescence of Yb3+/Tm3+ co-doped SLF are 20 mol% Yb3+ and 1 mol% Tm3+ with EDTA as the chelating agent. Under 980 nm light excitation, a strong upconversion emission of Tm3+ ions around 800 nm was achieved. In addition, the experimental photoluminescence lifetime of Tm3+ emission in the SLF host is reported. This study discovered that efficient near IR emission from ultrasmall Yb3+/Tm3+ co-doped SLF phosphors may have potential applications in the fields of fluorescent labels in bioimaging and security applications.
