Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of luminescent materials, and in particular relates to a photochromic fluorescent powder and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Photochromic phenomenon refers to the phenomenon that a certain compound A undergoes a specific chemical reaction when exposed to light of a certain wavelength and intensity, and another product B is obtained. Due to the different structure of product B, its absorption spectrum changes significantly, that is, the color changes. Under the irradiation of light of another wavelength or the action of heat, product B can return to the form of compound A. This kind of compound that can undergo reversible color change under the action of light is called a photochromic material. Based on the properties of the material, photochromic materials can be divided into two categories: organic photochromic materials and inorganic photochromic materials. However, organic photochromic materials generally have the disadvantages of slow color change reaction rate, easy aging, short color change duration, and poor thermal stability, which restricts the application of organic photochromic materials. Inorganic photochromic materials show characteristics that are significantly better than organic photochromic materials, such as fast color change reaction rate, strong anti-aging performance, long color change duration, and good thermal stability. It has great application potential in the fields of intelligent optical switches and erasable optical information recording.
[0003] The synthesis of inorganic photochromic materials with photoluminescence and photochromic properties by rare earth doping of specific compound matrices is currently the main method. However, compared with the upconversion emission type, the luminescence quenching degree of downconversion emission-based photochromic materials is still poor. Summary of the invention
[0004] The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a photochromic phosphor and a preparation method thereof.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a photochromic phosphor having a chemical formula of Ba y SrGd4O8:xBi; wherein y is the amount of Ba, 0.95≤y≤1, and x is the doping amount of Bi, 0≤x≤0.05.
[0006] A photochromic phosphor comprises the following raw materials in molar percentage: 50% Gd2O3, 23.75% to 25% BaCO3, 25% SrCO3, and 0.00 to 1.25% Bi2O3.
[0007] A method for preparing a photochromic fluorescent powder comprises the following steps: grinding and mixing Gd2O3, BaCO3, SrCO3 and Bi2O3 uniformly, calcining the mixture, and cooling the mixture to obtain a reversible photochromic fluorescent powder.
[0008] As a further improvement of the present invention, the calcination temperature is 1500-1600° C., the time is 4-20 hours, and the calcination atmosphere is air.
[0009] As a further improvement of the present invention, ethanol is added during the grinding, the volume ratio of ethanol to the total mass of the mixed powder is: 3-8 ml:3 g, and the grinding time is 10-60 min.
[0010] As a further improvement of the present invention, the cooling rate is 1-3°C / min.
[0011] The present invention also claims to protect the use of the photochromic phosphor in erasable optical information recording or intelligent optical switching.
[0012] The present invention is based on Ba y SrGd4O8 is the matrix carrier and Bi is the color-changing center. When the material is stimulated by light in a specific band, the matrix carrier absorbs energy, most of which will be converted into photons by the Gd luminescence center and released, and a small part will be captured by the oxygen vacancy defects in the matrix carrier, causing color change. When a certain amount of Bi is doped, the oxygen vacancy defects in the matrix carrier will increase, resulting in an enhanced color change effect.
[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention dopes Bi into Ba y SrGd4O8 achieves faster and more obvious color change, which helps to achieve more efficient color change and color display. In addition, by selecting different doping ions and doping concentrations and changing them, the color change degree can be adjusted, which can be used for erasable optical information recording and intelligent optical switches.
