Quantum yield, energy transfer, and x-ray induced study of Sm3+ions doped oxide glasses for intense orange-red photo-emitting optoelectronic device applications

초록

The work elucidates detailed analysis of X-ray near edge structure of Gd3+ ions using Synchrotron studies and deciphers the energy transfer mechanism involved in the stoichiometric ratio of (79-x)B2O3 + 10ZnO + 10BaO + x Gd 2 O 3 + 1Sm2O3 (BZBGS; x = 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 mol.%) glasses. A detailed analysis of the glasses' optical, structural, and luminescence properties were instigated to understand light emitting and scintillating behaviour. The oxidation state of Gd atom inside the glass found to be + 3. Stimulated emission cross section, radiative transition probability and branching of the metastable state of rare-earth ions were evaluated using Judd-Ofelt model and compared with other reported literature. Photo-Emission spectra were monitored at the UV-C band and X-rays. Luminescence was analysed with various excitation wavelengths and sources. Photoluminescence quantum yield show more than 22 % efficiency and show more than 15 % compared with other reported glasses. Luminescence intensity ratio was analysed and found that the Sm3+-ions do not occupy the inversion-symmetry which enhances the luminescence intensity in the present glass system. The CIE and CCT values were evaluated and discussed.
