Abstract:
We studied the structure, IR absorption spectra, the spectral characteristics of photoluminescence and morphology of cerium- and terbium-doped orthoborates of gadolinium and yttrium obtained by hydrothermal synthesis at 200∘∘C, as well as solid solutions of orthoborates on the basis of yttrium, gadolinium, and lutetium with composition RECe0.010.01Tb0.10.1BO33 (RE = Lu0.50.5Gd0.390.39, Lu0.50.5Y0.390.39, and Y0.50.5Gd0.390.39). The X-ray diffraction spectrum of yttrium orthoborate Y1−x−y1−x−yCexxTbyyBO33 is described by a hexagonal lattice with space group P63/mP63/m, which, after annealing at 970∘∘C, transforms into a monoclinic lattice with space group C2/cC2/c. High-temperature annealing of the studied orthoborates leads to a multiple, more than two orders of magnitude, increase in the luminescence intensity of Tb3+3+ ions when the samples are excited in the absorption band of cerium ions. This effect is the result of a significant increase in the concentration of Ce3+3+ ions in the orthoborates at high temperatures. It is shown that the luminescence of terbium ions is due to energy transfer from Ce3+3+ to Tb3+3+, which proceeds with high efficiency (∼∼85%) by the mechanism of dipole-dipole interaction between cerium and terbium.
