Keywords: | Infrared devices; Light emitting diodes; Paramagnetic resonance; Phosphors; Rietveld refinement; Electron-lattice coupling; Inhomogeneous broadening; Internal quantum efficiency; Near-infrared phosphors; Partial substitution; Solid solution process; Structural evolution; Time-resolved spectra; Light emission | Issue Date: | 2021 | Journal Volume: | 6 | Journal Issue: | 1 | Start page/Pages: | 109-114 | Source: | ACS Energy Letters | Abstract: | We aim to conduct a complete study on the unexpected structure evolution behavior in Cr3+-doped phosphors. A series of Ga2-xScxO3:Cr3+ phosphors are successfully synthesized and confirmed through structural studies, while the lattice parameters change unexpectedly. The unique partial substitution (a87%) of Sc3+ in the octahedral site is demonstrated via Rietveld refinement. Therefore, the bond valence sum calculation explains the reason for this particular Sc3+ concentration. The photoluminescent bandwidth and electron-lattice coupling energy initially increase and then decrease, implying an inhomogeneous broadening effect. Time-resolved spectra and electron paramagnetic resonance are utilized to further examine the subtle change in the microstructures and the second coordination sphere effect of Cr3+. Ga1.594Sc0.4O3:0.006Cr3+ exhibits high internal quantum efficiency (99%) and high phosphor-converted light-emitting diode output power (66.09 mW), demonstrating its capability as an outstanding infrared phosphor. This work will motivate further research on unexpected partial substitution during the solid solution process. ? |
