Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of down-conversion fluorescent anti-counterfeiting, and in particular to the synthesis and application of a safer four-mode fluorescent anti-counterfeiting material. Background Art

[0002] With the development of economic globalization, commodities are also becoming increasingly globalized. Many commodities are traded around the world every day. However, with the globalization of commodities, the problem of counterfeit goods has become increasingly prominent. Counterfeit and shoddy goods seriously damage the reputation and interests of commodity producers, and also seriously affect the user experience of commodities consumers, and even endanger their physical health. Therefore, commodity anti-counterfeiting is an indispensable part of commodity globalization.

[0003] The valence states of Mn ions that can achieve fluorescence emission are mainly Mn 2+ 、Mn 4+ , Mn 5+ ions, including Mn 2+ With 3D 5 The electronic configuration, in which the outer electrons are directly exposed to the crystal field environment, makes Mn 2+ The emission of ions is easily affected by the external coordination situation and the crystal field strength, so it can be adjusted by adjusting the Mn 2+ The crystal field environment around the ion affects the Mn 2+ The ion luminescence range is regulated. 2+ Ions in a weak crystal field achieve high energy emission (short-wave emission), and in a strong crystal field achieve low energy emission (long-wave emission). 2+ When doped into the matrix lattice, it is very easy to form electron traps and vacancy defects to cause afterglow. Mn ions are cheaper than rare earth ion doping, so Mn 2+ Ions are ideal doping ions for fluorescent anti-counterfeiting materials.

[0004] In the past decade or so, various anti-counterfeiting technologies have rapidly developed, including radio frequency identification (RFID), magnetic response, and laser holograms. However, these technologies have drawbacks such as ease of imitation and high manufacturing costs. In contrast, fluorescent anti-counterfeiting has become widely used due to its advantages such as low manufacturing cost, simple design, easy identification, and mass production. However, the currently widely used single-light-emitting fluorescent anti-counterfeiting materials are extremely easy to imitate, which reduces the security of fluorescent anti-counterfeiting.
