Yb-Tm co-doped up-conversion powder phosphors using Zn(AlGa)O (ZAGO) as the host materials were synthesized via solid-state reaction successfully. In addition, the morphology, structural characterization and up-conversion luminescent properties were all investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD) and fluorescence spectrophotometer (F-7000), respectively. Under the excitation of a 980 nm laser, all as-prepared powders can carry out blue emission at about 477 nm (corresponding to G → H transition of Tm ions), and red emission at about 691 nm (attributed to F → H transition of Tm ions). Also, the influence of doping Al ions were investigated. In brief, the doping of Al ions has no effect on the position of emission peak. Howbeit the up-conversion efficiency and intensity of ZAGO:Yb,Tm phosphors are stronger than ZGO:Yb,Tm and ZAO:Yb,Tm phosphors, while the crystallinity is the opposite. More particularly, all as-prepared powder phosphors emit strong luminescence, which is observable by the naked eye, demonstrating the potential applications in luminous paint, luminescent dye, etc.

High-performance, environmentally friendly indium phosphide (InP)-based quantum dots (QDs) are urgently needed to meet the demands of rapidly evolving display and lighting technologies. By adopting the highly efficient and cost-effective one-pot method and utilizing aluminum isopropoxide (AIP) as the Al source, a series of Al-doped InP/(Al)ZnS QDs with emission maxima ranging from 480 to 627 nm were synthesized. The photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of the blue, green, yellow, orange, and red QDs, with emission peaks at 480, 509, 560, 600, and 627 nm, reached 34%, 62%, 86%, 96%, and 85%, respectively.

In this study, we present the growth of large (SiS)I ( = La, Ce) crystals, both undoped and doped with Ce and Eu. The synthesis process involves the utilization of an arc-melted precursor in conjunction with sulfur and KI. We investigate the role of Zr, Nb, Mo, and Ir as cocrystallization agents, facilitating the growth of relatively large (up to 6-7 mm) crystals.

From a fundamental point of view, the structure-photoluminescence relationship is vitally important for developing efficient phosphors and rationally improving their performances. In this work, Rietveld refinements on high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) data were conducted to verify the Ce distribution in KY(PO) (KYPO). Ce ions are located at both M1 and M2 sites, with occupation factors of 0.
