Summary: The study focused on developing composite phosphors of CYPO:Ce3+,Mn2+/g-C3N4 with different proportions for highly sensitive optical-temperature measurement. Through X-ray powder diffraction and fluorescence spectroscopy, it was found that the composite phosphors exhibited better temperature-dependent properties compared to pure CYPO:Ce3+,Mn2+. The maximum absolute and relative sensitivities of the designed composite phosphors were determined based on FIR technology, providing a feasible idea for versatile applications in optical-temperature measurement.

Summary: The urgent need for efficient and high-purity red phosphors in LED development was addressed in this study. The whitlockite compound Ca19Mn2(PO4)(14) with its compact and compositional-tunable structure was chosen as the phosphor host for Eu2+ sensitization. Various analyses were conducted to investigate the properties of Ca19Mn2(PO4)(14): Eu2+, including Rietveld refinement, steady-state spectra, decay lifetime analysis, and temperature-dependent emission spectra. The results showed that Ca19Mn2(PO4)(14): Eu2+ exhibited strong Mn2+ sensitized emission under 360 nm excitation, with excellent emission engineering achieved through Sr2+ co-doping. The phosphor also demonstrated promising thermal stability. Overall, this study highlights the great potential of Ca19Mn2(PO4)(14): Eu2+ phosphor as an efficient red phosphor for phosphor-converted white LEDs.

Summary: A series of Eu2+/Dy3+ single doped and co-doped Na3Sc2(PO4)(3) phosphors were synthesized and characterized. The Na3Sc2(PO4)(3):Eu2+,Dy3+ phosphor can emit white light and the color coordinates can be adjusted by varying the Dy3+ concentration. The fluorescence lifetime decrease and the application of Dexter's theory confirm the energy transfer from Eu2+ to Dy3+. These phosphors have potential applications in white LEDs.

Summary: The new dual-emitting and color tunable single phase of Na2BaSr(PO4)(2):0.03Eu(2+), xMn(2+) (NBSP:0.03Eu(2+), xMn(2+)) phosphor is successfully prepared. The Eu2+ ions occupy the Sr2 and Sr3 site, while the Mn2+ ions occupy the Sr3 site. Strong energy transfer between Eu2+ and Mn2+ exists with a high efficiency of 92%. The color tunable emission from blue to cold white is achieved in these phosphors.

Summary: A single-phase full-spectrum emission Ca9NaLu0.667(PO4)(7) (CNLP):Eu2+/Mn(2+) phosphor was synthesized and its luminous color was adjusted by changing the content of Mn(2+). The average bond length obtained using Rietveld refinements was used to analyze the occupancy of Eu2+/Mn(2+). The energy transfer process of Eu2+ ? Mn(2+) was discussed, and the ET efficiency reached 77.81%.

Summary: The study shows that the emission spectrum of Ba7F12Cl2:Eu2+ white phosphor shifts systematically from warm white to cold white with changes in excitation wavelength, and that energy transfer is concentration and temperature dependent. The observation of constant emission lifetimes at different temperatures and concentrations suggests that energy transfer first occurs between the normal states of the Eu ions, followed by relaxation to anomalous emission states.

Summary: Mechanoluminescence materials, such as MCP phosphors, with tunable emissions have potential applications but their mechanism is not fully understood. By fabricating Eu2+/Mn2+/Ce3+-activated MCP phosphors, researchers obtained intense blue and weak red mechanoluminescence. The position of excited energy levels and traps play a crucial role in determining the ML efficiency. The concentration-dependent ML in MCP:Eu2+,Mn2+-based devices opens up possibilities for visualized multimode anti-counterfeiting.
