利用978 nm近红外光激发样品Ca F2∶Pb^2+,Yb^3+,在室温下观察到二价Pb^2+离子在383 nm附近的紫外上转换发光。该发射峰对应于Pb^2+离子的3P0"1A1g(1S0)跃迁。瞬态光谱测量结果表明:在这个材料体系中,Pb^2+离子的激发来自于Yb^3+离子三聚体的合作敏化。但是随着Pb^2+离子掺杂浓度的提高,Yb^3+离子三聚体遭到结构性破坏,导致其合作发光减弱。本文首次利用Pb^2+离子掺杂造成Yb^3+离子三聚体的结构性破坏,从而引起合作荧光猝灭,并对在Ca F2基质中因其他二价离子的掺入而造成的Yb^3+三聚体合作发光猝灭给予了合理的解释。
At room temperature,the ultraviolet( UV) upconversion emissions from Ca F2∶ Pb^2+,Yb^3+were observed under the excitation of 978 nm near infrared( NIR) laser. The upconversion emission peak is centered at 383 nm,which is ascribed to the3P0"1A1g(1S0) transition of Pb^2+ions. Through the results of transient measurements,the upconversion process of Pb^2+ions is confirmed. The energy transfer process is that three excited Yb^3+ions simultaneously transfer their energy to one Pb^2+ion. With the increasing of Pb^2+concentration,the cooperative luminescence from Yb^3+clusters decreases gradually. In order to explain this phenomenon,we propose a new cooperative luminescence quenching mechanism in this paper,which is originated from Pb^2+induced structure destruction of Yb^3+-trimers. The fluorescence quenching in Pb^2+and Yb^3+codoped Ca F2 is given a reasonable explanation.
