Abstract:
Single crystals of two new terbium oxyborates Ba4BiTbO(BO3)4 and Ba1.54Sr2.46BiTbO(BO3)4 were obtained by the high-temperature solution method. They crystallize in the hexagonal P63/mmc group (Z = 2) with lattice parameters of a = 5.41865(9) Å, c = 26.3535(5) Å, V = 670.12(3) Å3 and a = 5.36534(19) Å, c = 26.0661(10) Å, V = 649.83(5) Å3, respectively. Their crystal structures feature two kinds of layers: [Tb(BO3)2]n3n- formed by corner-sharing TbO6 octahedra and BO3 triangles, as well as [Bi(BO3)2O]n5n- consisting of Bi2O13 dimers and BO3 groups, with alkali-earth cations sitting inside and between the layers. In addition, solid solutions of Ba4BiTb1-xEuxO(BO3)4 (0 ≤ × ≤ 0.2) were prepared via the solidstate reaction method. The obtained products were characterized by powder XRD, SEM, IR/Raman, XPS, DRS, and luminescence spectroscopy. It was found that as the Eu3+ doped content varies from x = 0 to 0.2, the emission color of the Ba4BiTb1-xEuxO(BO3)4 phosphors can be adjusted from cyan to near-white and then to orange-red or from green to orange and then to red under the excitation of 349 and 377 nm, respectively. Furthermore, the emission intensities and chromaticity coordinates were found to be sensitive to the temperature for the phosphor Ba4BiTb0.999Eu0.001O(BO3)4 upon 377 nm excitation. The above results demonstrate that Ba4BiTb1-xEuxO(BO3)4 phosphors have potential as multifunctional materials for solid-state lighting and temperature sensing applications. © 2024 The Author(s).
