Microcrystalline Luminescent (Eu 1-xLn x) 2bdc 3·nH 2O (Ln = La, Gd, Lu) Antenna MOFs: Effect of Dopant Content on Structure, Particle Morphology, and Luminescent Properties. Molecules 2024; 29:532. [PMID: 38276610 PMCID: PMC10819915 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29020532] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
In this work, three series of micro-sized heterometallic europium-containing terephthalate MOFs, (Eu1-xLnx)2bdc3·nH2O (Ln = La, Gd, Lu), are synthesized via an ultrasound-assisted method in an aqueous medium. La3+ and Gd3+-doped terephthalates are isostructural to Eu2bdc3·4H2O. Lu3+-doped compounds are isostructural to Eu2bdc3·4H2O with Lu contents lower than 95 at.%. The compounds that are isostructural to Lu2bdc3·2.5H2O are formed at higher Lu3+ concentrations for the (Eu1-xLux)2bdc3·nH2O series. All materials consist of micrometer-sized particles. The particle shape is determined by the crystalline phase. All the synthesized samples demonstrate an "antenna" effect: a bright-red emission corresponding to the 5D0-7FJ transitions of Eu3+ ions is observed upon 310 nm excitation into the singlet electronic excited state of terephthalate ions. The fine structure of the emission spectra is determined by the crystalline phase due to the different local symmetries of the Eu3+ ions in the different kinds of crystalline structures. The photoluminescence quantum yield and 5D0 excited state lifetime of Eu3+ are equal to 11 ± 2% and 0.44 ± 0.01 ms, respectively, for the Ln2bdc3·4H2O structures. For the (Eu1-xLux)2bdc3·2.5H2O compounds, significant increases in the photoluminescence quantum yield and 5D0 excited state lifetime of Eu3+ are observed, reaching 23% and 1.62 ms, respectively.

[PMID: 38229719 PMCID: PMC10790281 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra08197d] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/18/2024] Open
Abstract
The effect of the grain morphology on the photoluminescence, charge transfer band, and decay properties was investigated by xEu3+, yB3+ (x = 10 mol%, y = 0, 5, 15, 30, 50, 70, and 100 mol%) co-doped BaTa2O6 ceramics fabricated by solid-state reaction. X-ray diffractions of the samples showed that the single-phase structure persisted up to 100 mol% and there was an improvement in crystallinity with increasing B3+ concentration. SEM micrographs of the Eu3+, B3+ co-doped grains showed that the flux effect of boron promotes grain growth and elongated grain shape. The PL emissions of the BaTa2O6:xEu3+, yB3+ co-doped phosphors increased up to 100 mol% B3+ concentration, and there was an increase in the intensities of the CTB energy 5D0 → 7F1 transition. The increase in PL may be attributed to the increased grain size leading to a decrease in the surface area (SA)/volume (vol) ratio with increasing B3+ concentration, as well as the improvement in crystallinity. However, the decrease in asymmetry ratio was related to the occupation of centrosymmetric (B) sites and the transformation from a rounded/irregular-like to an elongated/rod-like grain shape which has an increasing effect on the SA/vol ratio. The decreasing trend of the Judd-Ofelt parameters (Ω2, and Ω4) with the increase in boron was related to a high local symmetry of Eu3+ sites, and an increase in the electron density of the surrounding ligands, respectively. The increase in boron led to longer decays in the observed lifetime with bi-exponential characteristics. The CIE diagram and UV lamp photographs of the phosphors showed a color transition from red to orange associated with the increasing magnetic dipole transition. This study may provide an alternative perspective and new strategies to describe the control of grain morphology and luminescence concerning RE-doped phosphors.

Abstract
In the study, the effect of boron doping on spectral properties and CTB mechanism was investigated by using Eu3+ doped orthorhombic β-SrTa2O6. A phosphor series of Eu3+ doped SrTa2O6, and Eu3+ and B3+ co-doped SrTa2O6 polycrystals were fabricated by solid-state reaction at 1400 °C for 20 h in an air atmosphere. The X-ray diffractions of the main phase structure for all the ceramics maintained up to 10 mol% Eu3+ concentration, while the increase of XRD intensity for Eu3+ and B3+ co-doped samples was attributed to somewhat improvement of crystallization. SEM morphologies of grains showed that the presence of boron promotes agglomeration and grain growth. The doping of boron up to 20 mol% led to an increase in PL intensity, CTB energy slightly shifted to low energy, and also an increase occurred in the asymmetry ratio of the phosphor. Therefore, the low crystal field symmetry of the Eu3+ sites and some improvement in crystal structure properties for Eu3+, B3+ co-doped samples supported the PL increase. The trend of Judd-Ofelt parameters (Ω 2, Ω 4) is SrTa2O6:xEu3+, 0.1B3+ > SrTa2O6:xEu3+. The high Ω 2 parameter for boron co-doped samples showed a covalent Eu-O bond character with low symmetry of Eu3+ environment, while the high Ω 4 value indicated the reduction in electron density of the ligands. Some increase in the short decays of Eu3+, B3+ co-doped samples is probably due to the surface effect and low crystal field symmetry. The quantum efficiency of 0.05Eu3+, 0.1B3+ co-doped phosphor with the highest PL intensity increased by about 21% compared to that without boron.

Abstract
We developed a room-temperature and ultrafast Eu3+-ion doping approach for the synthesis of highly luminescent Eu-doped CaMoO4 nanoparticles. Firstly, CaMoO4 nanoparticles with a particle size of 3.9 nm are rapidly prepared using a room temperature co-precipitation approach. Subsequently, Eu-doped CaMoO4 nanoparticles with a photoluminescence quantum yield of up to 75% are synthesized by a post-cation exchange reaction at room temperature. This facile and room-temperature synthetic strategy enables us to prepare highly luminescent and extremely small rare earth ion-doped metal oxide nanocrystals.

Abstract
Hexagonal phase sodium yttrium fluoride activated with lanthanide ions; Tb3+, Eu3+ and Dy3+ doped NaYF4 phosphors were synthesized using a simplistic hydrothermal method. The photoluminescence studies demonstrated green, red and blue emission lines corresponding to 5D4 → 7FJ (J = 6, 5, 4, 3), 5D0 → 7FJ (J = 1, 2 and 4) and 4F9/2 to 6HJ (J = 15/2 and 13/2) transitions, which are characteristic of Tb3+, Eu3+ and Dy3+ ions, respectively. The as-synthesized samples were subjected to annealing at varying temperatures from 500 °C to 800 °C primarily for the optimization of the thermoluminescence glow curve. Meanwhile, we studied the influence of thermal annealing treatment on the crystal phase, morphological features, and photoluminescence properties of the phosphors. The spherical-like morphology of NaYF4:Tb3+ phosphor changed to micro block-like structures and the hexagonal phase of NaYF4 transforms into a cubic phase at a higher annealing temperature of ∼800 °C. The photoluminescence emission intensity also varied at different annealing temperatures. The systematic study using different dopants and annealing temperatures was carried out to accomplish efficient thermoluminescence (TL) properties. The most suitable TL dosimetric glow peak was attained for NaYF4:0.5%Tb3+ phosphor, which was annealed at a temperature of 800 °C, located at 194 °C. The NaYF4:Tb3+ phosphor exhibited TL response fairly linear in the dose range from 1 kGy to 25 kGy of gamma radiation. The phosphor showed TL response at higher doses, which stipulates that the NaYF4:Tb3+ is reasonably well suitable for high dose measurements and respective applications. The phosphor exhibited negligible fading and good reproducibility features. Trap-level analysis and experimental determination of activation energy were performed using the Tm-Tstop technique and initial rise method (IRM). The trapping parameters of the TL glow curve, such as activation energy (E), order of kinetics (b), and frequency factor (s) were estimated by Chen's glow peak shape (PS) method and glow curve deconvolution (GCD) method. The trapping parameters obtained using the IRM, PS and GCD methods are in good accordance with each other. Henceforth, along with efficient photoluminescence properties, the NaYF4:Tb3+ phosphor exhibited favorable thermoluminescence dosimetric properties. Consequently, this study provides new opportunities for utilizing these phosphors in the area of radiation dosimetry applications such as environmental and food monitoring, space dosimetry etc.

Abstract
Inorganic-organic hybrid nanoparticles formed by lanthanide-doped nanostructures and organic ligands have been intensively studied, which could greatly increase their photoluminescence performance as a result of the energy transfer process from organic ligands to Ln3+ ions. However, the photoluminescence intensity and excitation spectral width are still quite limited on coordinating with a single type of organic ligand. In this work, Eu3+ -doped LaF3 (LaF3 :Eu3+ ) nanoparticles were prepared using hydrothermal method, which was then hybridized with benzoic acid and thenoyltrifluoroacetone to form the hybrid nanostructures. After that, the hybrid nanostructures were mixed with 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitrile and methyl methacrylate to prepare the composites. The sample obtained by hybridization and composite doping with 5% Eu3+ exhibited the best photoluminescence performance. The excitation peak width and luminescence intensity of the hybrid nanostructures were significantly increased. The excitation spectral width of the inorganic-organic mixed hybrid nanostructures was particularly enhanced, which covers the whole ultraviolet (UV) band region of solar light on earth. The prepared composites exhibited good optical properties.

Abstract
![]()
A theoretical protocol combining
density functional theory (DFT) and multireference (CAS) calculations
is proposed for a Eu3+ complex. In the complex, electronic
levels of the central Eu3+ ion are correctly calculated
at the CASPT2 level of theory, and the effect of introducing different
numbers of states in the configuration interaction matrices is highlighted
as well as the shortcomings of DFT methods in the treatment of systems
with high spin multiplicity and strong spin–orbit coupling
effects. For the 5D0 state energy calculation,
the inclusion of states with different multiplicity and the number
of states considered for each multiplicity are crucial parameters,
even if their relative weight is different. Indeed, the addition of
triplet and singlets is important, while the number of states is relevant
only for the quintets. The herein proposed protocol enables a rigorous,
full ab initio treatment of Eu3+ complex,
which can be easily extended to other Ln3+ ions. A theoretical protocol combining density

Abstract
Pr3+-doped Y2O3 nanocrystals (NCs) have been obtained via five wet-chemistry synthesis methods which were optimized in order to achieve superior optical properties. To this end, a systematic study on the influence of different reaction parameters was performed for each procedure. Specifically, precursor concentration, reaction temperature, calcination temperature, and time, among others, were analyzed. The synthesized Y2O3: Pr3+ NCs were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and reflectance and Raman spectroscopy. In addition, the optical properties of such NCs were investigated by excitation, emission, and luminescence decay measurements. Concretely, emission from the 1D2 level was detected in all samples, while emission from 3PJ was absent. Finally, the effect of the synthesis methods and the reaction conditions on the luminescence decay has been discussed, and a comparative study of the different methods using the fluorescence lifetime of so-obtained Y2O3: Pr3+ NCs as a figure of merit has been carried out.

Abstract
Technologically relevant tetragonal/cubic phases of HfO2 can be stabilized at room temperature by doping with trivalent rare earths using various approaches denoted generically as bulk coprecipitation. Using in situ/ex situ X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and in situ/ex situ site-selective, time-gated luminescence spectroscopy, we show that wet impregnation of hafnia nanoparticles with 10% Eu oxide followed by mild calcination in air at 500 °C produces an efficient stabilization of the cubic phase, comparable to that obtained by bulk precipitation. The physical reasons behind the apparently conflictual data concerning the actual crystallographic phase and the local symmetry around the Eu stabilizer and how these can be mediated by luminescence analysis are also discussed. Apparently, the cubic crystal structure symmetry determined by XRD results in a pseudocubic/tetragonal local structure around Eu determined by luminescence. Considering the recent findings on wet impregnated CeO2 and ZrO2, it is concluded that CeO2, ZrO2, and HfO2 represent a unique case of a family of oxides that is extremely tolerant to heavy doping by wet impregnation. In this way, the same batch of preformed nanoparticles can be doped with different lanthanide concentrations or with various lanthanides at a fixed concentration, allowing a systematic and reliable investigation of the effect of doping, lanthanide type, and lanthanide concentration on the various functionalities of these technologically relevant oxides.

Abstract
We report systematic study of Dy3+-doped YVO4 nanophosphors synthesized via modified Pechini technique. Effect of calcination temperature and doping concentration on structure and luminescence has been investigated. XRD and Raman spectroscopy revealed preparation of single phase nanoparticles without any impurities. Synthesized nanopowders consisted of weakly agglomerated nanoparticles with average size about 50 nm. Photoluminescence spectra of YVO4:Dy3+ nanoparticles consisted of the characteristic narrow lines attributed to the intra-configurational 4f-4f transitions dominating by the hypersensitive 4F9/2–6H13/2 transition. The calcination temperature variation did not affect 4F9/2 lifetime, whereas increase of doping concentration resulted in its gradual decline. Potential application of YVO4:Dy3+ 1 at.% and 2 at.% nanopowders as ratiometric luminescence thermometers within 298–673 K temperature range was tested. The main performances of thermometer including absolute and relative thermal sensitivities and temperature uncertainty were calculated. The maximum relative thermal sensitivity was determined to be 1.8% K−1@298 K, whereas the minimum temperature uncertainty was 2 K.

Abstract
Red light emitting cubic Zr0.99Eu0.01O2:Li+ (0-9 mol%) nanoparticles are synthesized by a low temperature, self-propagating solution combustion method using oxalyl di-hydrazide (ODH) as fuel. In this study, we report systematic investigation of the effect of lithium ion (Li+) concentration on the structural properties and the photoluminescence of zirconia. With increasing lithium concentration, the crystallinity of the samples increases and the lattice strain decreases. The higher crystallinity is likely due to charge compensation achieved by replacing one Zr4+ ion by a Eu3+ and a Li+ ion. Scanning electron micrographs (SEM) reveal a mesoporous structure characteristic of combustion derived nanomaterials. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra show that the intensity of the red emission (606 nm) is highly dependent on Li+ ion concentration. Furthermore there is a promising enhancement in the associated lifetime. Upon Li+ doping, the PL intensity of the samples is found to increase by two fold compared to the undoped sample. Variation of PL intensity with Li+ concentration is attributed to the differences in probability of non-radiative recombination (relaxing). Intensity parameters (Ω2, Ω) and radiative properties such as transition rates (A), branching ratios (β), stimulated emission cross-section (σe), gain bandwidth (σe × Δλeff) and optical gain (σe × τ) are calculated using the Judd-Ofelt theory. The calculated values suggest that in optimally co-doped samples, in addition to improved crystallinity and charge compensation, the lowering of Eu3+ site symmetry and the increase in the covalency of Eu-O bonding due to interstitial Li are responsible for the observed enhancement in PL intensity.

Abstract
Optical thermometry based on the up-conversion intensity ratio of thermally coupled levels of rare earth ions has been widely studied to achieve an inaccessible temperature measurement in submicron scale. In this work, a novel optical temperature sensing strategy based on the energy transfer from charge transfer bands of W-O and Eu-O to Eu3+-Dy3+ ions is proposed. A series of Eu3+/Dy3+ co-doped SrWO4 is synthesized by the conventional high-temperature solid-state method. It is found that the emission spectra, emission intensity ratio of Dy3+ (572 nm) and Eu3+ (615 nm), fluorescence color, lifetime decay curves of Dy3+ (572 nm) and Eu3+ (615 nm), and relative and absolute sensitivities of Eu3+/Dy3+ co-doped SrWO4 are temperature dependent under the 266 nm excitation in the temperature range from 11 K to 529 K. The emission intensity ratio of Dy3+ (572 nm) and Eu3+ (615 nm) ions exhibits exponentially relation to the temperature due to the different energy transfer from the charge transfer bands of W-O and Eu-O to Dy3+ and Eu3+ ions. In this host, the maximum relative sensitivity Sr can be reached at 1.71% K−1, being higher than those previously reported material. It opens a new route to obtain optical thermometry with high sensitivity through using down-conversion fluorescence under ultraviolet excitation.

Abstract
The rational design of brighter upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) requires a better understanding of the radiationless deactivation pathways in these materials. Here, we demonstrate the potential of excitation power density (P)-dependent studies of upconversion (UC) luminescence intensities, slope factors, and absolute quantum yields (ΦUC) of popular β-NaYF4:20% Yb3+,2% Er3+ UCNPs of different surface chemistries in organic solvents, D2O, and water as a tool to gain deeper insight into the UC mechanism including population and deactivation pathways particularly of the red emission. Our measurements, covering a P regime of three orders of magnitude, reveal a strong difference of the P-dependence of the ratio of the green and red luminescence bands (Ig/r) in water and organic solvents and P-dependent population pathways of the different emissive energy levels of Er3+. In summary, we provide experimental evidence for three photon processes in UCNPs, particularly for the red emission. Moreover, we demonstrate changes in the excited population dynamics via bi- and triphotonic processes dependent on the environment, surface chemistry, and P, and validate our findings theoretically.

Abstract
A facile, but effective, method has been developed for large-scale preparation of NaLa(MoO4)2 nanorods and microflowers co-doped with Eu(3+) and Tb(3+) ions (abbreviated as: NLM:Ln(3+)). The as-synthesized nanomaterials possess a pure tetragonal phase with variable morphologies from shuttle-like nanorods to microflowers by controlling the reaction temperature and the amount of ethylene glycol used. Consequently, the resulting nanomaterials exhibit superb luminescent emissions over the visible region from red through yellow to green by simply changing the relative doping ratios of Eu(3+) to Tb(3+) ions. Biocompatibility study indicates that the addition of NLM:Ln(3+) nanomaterials can stimulate the growth of normal human retinal pigment epithelium (ARPE-19) cells. Therefore, the newly-developed NaLa(MoO4)2 nanomaterials hold potentials for a wide range of multifunctional applications, including bioimaging, security protection, optical display, optoelectronics for information storage, and cell stimulation.

Abstract
Heteroepitaxial core-shell nanostructures have been proven advantageous in a wide variety of applications, ranging from luminescence enhancement, band gap engineering, multimodal theranostics, to catalysis. However, precisely tailoring the epitaxial growth is challenging, and a general understanding of the parameters that impact epitaxial growth remains unclear. Here we demonstrate the critical role of the sign of the lattice mismatch of the shell relative to the core (compressed/tensile) in generating lanthanide-based core-shell structures, a parameter conventionally not considered in heteroepitaxial design. We took advantage of the very gradual contraction of lanthanide ions along the series to control precisely both the magnitude and the sign of lattice mismatch and investigated multiple sodium lanthanide fluoride (NaLnF4) core-shell heterostructures of variable composition and size. We discovered that the tensile strained shells adapt to the core crystallite shape (i.e., conformal) and lattice structure (i.e., coherent), while under identical magnitude of mismatch, the compressively strained shells are neither conformal nor coherent to the core. This striking asymmetry between the tensile and compressively strained epitaxial growth arises from the fundamental anharmonicity of the interatomic interactions between the attractive and repulsive pairs. From a broader perspective, our findings redefine the a priori design consideration and provide a fundamental insight on the necessity to include the sign of lattice mismatch and not just its magnitude in designing heteroepitaxial core-shell nanostructures.

Abstract
We report a facile microwave-assisted green synthetic route for colloidal poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-coated europium (Eu(3+))-doped luminescent heavy metal bismuth oxyhalide (BiOX; X = Cl, Br, I) nanoflakes at low temperature and examine their structural, optical, and photocatalytic characteristics. PVA coating onto the surface of the nanoflakes endows them with hydrophilic nature. Both Eu(3+)-doped BiOCl and BiOBr nanoflakes exhibit strong optical properties related to Eu(3+) and Bi(3+) which are quenched in case of Eu(3+)-doped BiOI matrix. These results are supported by Eu(3+) photoluminescence lifetime values of 0.61 ms, 0.59 ms, and 8.9 μs, respectively. The former two matrices have quite similar crystal field environments as deduced from the asymmetric ratios of (5)D0 → (7)F2 (614 nm) and (5)D0 → (7)F1 (591 nm) transitions. In addition to possessing interesting photoluminescence properties, a comparison of the photocatalytic activity of Eu(3+)-doped BiOX (X = Cl, Br, I) nanoflakes, with corresponding estimated band gaps of 3.36, 2.74, and 1.67 eV has been evaluated using Rhodamine B (RhB) dye under visible light irradiation. The nanoflakes exhibited 100% dye degradation under visible light irradiation. Eu(3+)-doped BiOCl nanoflakes manifested higher photocatalytic efficiency compared to the other matrices following apparent first-order kinetics. Such a boost in efficiency is attributed to their high surface area to volume ratios, layered crystalline structures, indirect band gap nature, and ability to utilize broad bands in the solar spectrum.
