Summary: In recent years, there has been increasing effort to develop single-phase white phosphors for white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) due to limitations of traditional WLEDs such as reabsorption and color deviation. A new strategy using the Bi3+-Eu3+ energy transfer in suitable single-phase phosphors has been proposed. In this study, Gd3TaO7:xBi(3+) and Gd3TaO7:0.01Bi(3+),yEu(3+) phosphors were synthesized and characterized. The results show the potential of Gd3TaO7:0.01Bi(3+),yEu(3+) phosphor as a viable candidate for WLED applications.

Summary: In this study, a color-tunable green-orange-emitting phosphor Ba3Lu4O9:Bi3+,Eu3+ was successfully prepared by introducing Bi3+ and Eu3+ into the host lattice. The emission spectra cover the whole visible region and show typical emissions from both Bi3+ and Eu3+, with the emitting color being tunable. Energy transfer behavior in the phosphor was confirmed, resulting in improved emission intensity of Eu3+. Moreover, composite films made with the phosphor show promising potential for near-UV pumped lighting and flexible devices.

Summary: In this paper, a Y4GeO8:Bi3+,Eu3+ phosphor with dual emission centers was synthesized using solid-state reaction technology. The structure, morphology, and luminous properties of the phosphor were investigated, and its potential applications in optical thermometry were explored using fluorescence intensity ratio and thermochromic techniques. The Y4GeO8:Bi3+,Eu3+ phosphor exhibited broadband emission from Bi3+ ions and characteristic emission peaks from Eu3+ ions under 290 and 347 nm excitation. It showed excellent temperature-sensing capabilities, with a maximum relative sensitivity of 1.51% K-1 (λ(ex) = 290 nm). The emitted color of the phosphor shifted from faint yellow to red with a high chromaticity shift (0.180) as the temperature increased from 303 to 513 K, which could be easily distinguished by the naked eye. The results suggested that the Y4GeO8:Bi3+,Eu3+ phosphor has potential applications in optical temperature measurement and high-temperature safety marking.

Summary: This paper reviews and rationalizes the luminescence properties of Bi3+ in 177 inorganic compounds based on two simple and easy-to-use models. These models are applicable to any compound with a known crystal structure. The calculation of the nephelauxetic function, he, in one of the models is described in detail for easy implementation in a homemade calculator or machine-learning algorithm. Finally, a criterion based on the experimental value of the Stokes shift is introduced to aid in determining the origin of Bi3+-related emission.

Summary: Fluorescent powders doped with Bi3+/Ln3+ (Eu3+, Er3+) were synthesized, showing multicolor luminescence and excitation wavelength dependence. The phosphors emitted blue, pink, lavender, and red lights under UV excitation and also upconversion-emission light from green to yellow under 980-nm laser excitation. The luminous color of the Ca3Y2Ge3O12:0.01Bi3+, 0.2Er3+ phosphor changed from yellow to orange with increasing temperature. Word-hiding experiment successfully achieved realistic information hiding with complex color transformation in the flower pattern. Rapid multimodal and complex discoloration was also achieved using easy-to-obtain light sources, demonstrating the potential of Bi3+/Ln3+ phosphors for anticounterfeiting applications.

Summary: White light-emitting diodes (W-LEDs) play an important role in human life. However, the lack of red-light emission phosphors in packaged W-LEDs results in high color temperature and low color rendering index. In this study, red luminescent Bi3+ and Eu3+ doped Lu2WO6 phosphors were manufactured and investigated for their structural and luminescent properties. The results show that Lu2WO6:Bi3+, Eu3+ samples have promising applications in solid-state lighting, with favorable thermal stability and efficient energy transfer processes.

Summary: The red afterglow of current rare-earth-activated long persistent luminescence (LPL) phosphors is limited to less than 6 hours, hindering their practical multiscenario applications. In this study, a rare-earth-free red-emitting LPL phosphor SrGa2O4:Cu2+ was developed, which exhibited an afterglow lasting over 30 hours at around 622 nm, matching the luminance of blue or green-emitting LPL phosphors. The Cu2+ ion was charged by ultraviolet light and emitted light over a broad band. The vacancies in oxygen and negatively charged gallium contributed to the long persistent luminescence of SrGa2O4:Cu2+. These findings could significantly expand the potential applications of LPL phosphors and stimulate future research on multicolor LPL phosphors.

Summary: In this study, a two-dimensional MOF material ZIF-9 was treated to obtain a flower-shaped carbon skeleton coated with Co-vacancy, Co1-xS nanoparticles, which effectively improved the electrical conductivity and cycling performance of the compound. The cobalt vacancy altered the local electronic structure and atomic populations, promoting sodium ion migration and showing good cycling performance under high current density. The obtained Co1-xS@C exhibited excellent electrochemical performance, maintaining a capacity of about 300 mA h g(-1) at a high current density of 5 A g(-1) after 250 cycles, indicating the potential of transition metal sulfide materials in energy storage applications.
