研究目的
To investigate the enhancement of up-conversion luminescent properties of KYb2F7:Er3+ by Sc3+ doping.
研究成果
The doping of Sc3+ significantly enhances the up-conversion luminescence intensity of KYb2F7:Er3+ by up to five times, improves crystallinity and uniformity, and does not significantly alter the luminescent color. This makes Sc3+-doped KYb2F7 a promising material for up-conversion applications.
研究不足
The study is limited to specific doping concentrations and the hydrothermal synthesis method; potential limitations include scalability and application in real-world devices. Optimization could involve exploring other dopants or synthesis conditions.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses a hydrothermal method to synthesize KYb2F7 nanoparticles co-doped with Er3+ and Sc3+. The rationale is to explore the effects of non-luminescent center doping on luminescence properties. Theoretical models include energy transfer mechanisms involving Yb3+, Er3+, and Sc3+ ions.
