Na3AMg7(PO4)6 (A = K, Rb and Cs): Structures, properties and theoretical studies of alkali metal magnesium orthophosphates

A new type of phosphate-based phosphor Na3CsMg7(PO4)6:Eu2+/Mn2+ with high quantum efficiency and high thermostability

The Eu2+ ion, with the 4f75d1 electronic configuration, is one of the most important activated ions for its symmetry-allowed 4f→5d electron transition. Herein, we successfully prepared a new type of...

An efficient blue phosphor with high thermal stability for lighting and optical pressure sensor applications

For exploring new and efficient luminescent materials, we developed an efficient narrow-band blue-emitting phosphor Eu2+ doped Na3CsMg7(PO4)6. Under near-ultraviolet light excitation, the phosphor can emit bright blue light with narrow...

Li5Cs(SO4)3: a potential zero-order wave plate material with short deep-ultraviolet cutoff edge

A reversible phase transition Li5Cs(SO4)3 single crystal with transparency ranging from 180 nm to 4.7 μm has been obtained, which is a potential zero-order DUV wave plate material with small birefringence properties.
