[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of luminescent materials, and in particular relates to an erbium and indium co-doped gallium oxide phosphor and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Gallium oxide (Ga2O3) is an ultra-wide bandgap oxide semiconductor material with enormous application prospects in power electronics and optoelectronic information, and has become a hot topic of research both domestically and internationally. Gallium oxide has six crystalline phases, the most stable of which is the β phase, followed by the ε and α phases. As the most stable, the β phase offers advantages such as a stable crystal structure, a wide bandgap, a high breakdown electric field, radiation resistance, and excellent thermal and chemical stability. It has the potential to replace third-generation semiconductor silicon carbide. Its excellent physical, chemical, electrical, and optical properties can meet the emerging demands of low-energy, high-power, and integrated electronic devices. Furthermore, gallium oxide is a well-suited matrix material for rare earth element doping and an ideal host for rare earth ions. Therefore, light-emitting devices with different emission wavelengths can be fabricated by controlling the rare earth element doping level.

[0003] The potential application of rare earth element doped gallium oxide in temperature sensors, thin film electroluminescent displays and compact color displays has attracted people's attention. Guo et al. prepared rare earth erbium ions (Er) by pulsed laser deposition technology. 3+ ) doped Ga 2-x Er x O3 thin film, green luminescence was observed at 550nm. 3+ Compared with GaN thin films with ions, Ga 2-x Er x O3 thin films show low temperature sensitivity. At present, the research on the photoluminescence and electroluminescence properties of erbium-doped gallium oxide is still in its infancy. The existing erbium ion-doped gallium oxide materials generally have the problems of weak luminescence intensity and low luminescence efficiency, which are difficult to meet the requirements of practical applications. This makes it difficult to enhance the performance of rare earth Er. 3+ The luminescence performance of ion-doped gallium oxide is particularly urgent. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to address the shortcomings and deficiencies of the prior art, the primary purpose of the present invention is to provide a gallium oxide phosphor co-doped with erbium and indium.

[0005] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing the aforementioned erbium- and indium-co-doped gallium oxide phosphor. The phosphor prepared using this method requires minimal experimental conditions and is simple to operate. Indium (In) acts as a sensitizer, enhancing the photoluminescence intensity of Er. The resulting powder sample exhibits excellent luminescence performance, high intensity, and high efficiency.

[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide an application of the above-mentioned erbium and indium co-doped gallium oxide phosphor.

[0012] Preferably, the gallium oxide phosphor co-doped with erbium and indium can absorb infrared light and emit light with wavelengths in the range of 540-570 nm and 640-700 nm.

[0013] The method for preparing the erbium and indium co-doped gallium oxide phosphor comprises the following steps:

[0014] Step 1: Weigh gallium oxide (Ga2O3) powder, erbium oxide (Er2O3) powder, and indium oxide (In2O3) powder;

[0019] The present invention adopts erbium oxide, indium oxide and gallium oxide, and uses solid phase reaction method to prepare gallium oxide-based phosphor with excellent photoluminescence performance without impurity phase. The sintering temperature, sintering time, Er3+ Effect of ion doping concentration on Ga 2-x Er x The influence of O3 on the luminescence properties is to obtain the best sintering temperature, sintering time and Er 3+ In is introduced based on the ion doping concentration 3+ Ions improve the luminescence properties of phosphors, 3+ The introduction of ions into the lattice will lead to changes in the crystal structure and the coordination environment. These changes effectively reduce the non-radiative decay process, thereby enhancing the luminescence performance. In addition, the doping of In2O3 introduces lattice defects. Some electrons generated under 980nm laser excitation will be captured by the lattice defects, and the electrons in these defect states are then transferred to Er 3+ ions, leading to Er 3+ The luminescence intensity of the ions increases.

[0020] The amount ratio of gallium oxide, erbium oxide and indium oxide in step 1 is based on the chemical formula Ga 2-x-y Er x In y The values ​​of O3 and doping amounts x and y are determined. For example, when x = 0.015 and y = 0.035, the molar ratio of gallium oxide, erbium oxide, and indium oxide is 97.5:0.75:1.75.

[0024] In step 3, the powder is dried and placed in a crucible (preferably an alumina crucible), and then placed in a muffle furnace for pre-calcination.

[0025] The ball milling in step 2 and step 4 is carried out in a planetary ball mill with a rotation speed of 200-500 r / min and a ball milling time of 5-10 h.

Compared to existing Er-only doped gallium oxide phosphors, the erbium- and indium-co-doped gallium oxide phosphors provided by this invention achieve photoluminescent green and red luminescence intensities 60 times and 44 times higher, respectively, significantly enhancing the overall performance of the phosphor. Er serves as the luminescence center and activator, while In acts as a sensitizer, boosting luminescence intensity.

[0032] 2. The erbium and indium co-doped gallium oxide phosphor provided by the present invention has strong luminous intensity in the green light band, a simple preparation process with a short cycle, simple operation, is suitable for mass production, and the materials used are easily available, thus having great application prospects.

[0033] 3. The present invention enhances the luminescence performance of erbium (Er) doped gallium oxide by introducing indium (In) ions, and also has the following advantages: 1) Enhanced luminescence intensity: By introducing indium ions, the luminescence intensity at 555nm is increased by up to 60 times. This is attributed to the fact that indium ion doping reduces the non-radiative attenuation process and introduces lattice defects to enhance the energy transfer from indium ions to erbium ions, which significantly improves the luminescence intensity. 2) Suppressing non-radiative processes: In doping can suppress non-radiative processes, such as multi-level transitions and cross-hybridization, which can lead to energy loss. By limiting these non-radiative processes, In-enhanced Er-doped gallium oxide materials can improve the photoluminescence intensity. 3) Increasing photon lifetime: The introduction of indium ions increases the lifetime of Ga 1.985-y Er 0.015 In y The photon lifetime of O3 phosphors, such as Ga 1.95 Er 0.015 In 0.035 The photon lifetime of green and red light of O3 phosphor is shorter than that of Ga 1.985 Er 0.015 The photon lifetimes of the green and red light of the O3 phosphor increased by 235% and 271%, respectively, providing strong evidence for the efficient energy transfer between indium and erbium ions.

[0058] The characterization data of the phosphor samples prepared in the above examples and comparative examples are as follows: Figures 1 to 8 shown.

[0059] Figure 1The XRD patterns of Er-doped and Er- and In-co-doped gallium oxide phosphors prepared in Example 1 of the present invention are shown in Figure 1, where (a) shows the XRD patterns of Er-doped and Er- and In-co-doped gallium oxide phosphors prepared in Comparative Examples 1-8. 3+ Ga ion doping concentration 2-x Er x Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of O3 phosphor; (b) is the powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of Ga prepared in Comparative Example 6. 1.985 Er 0.015 O3 phosphor (y=0) and different In phosphors prepared in Examples 1-12 3+ Ga ion doping concentration 1.985-y Er 0.015 In y The powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of O3 phosphor shows that the sample has only the diffraction peak of β-Ga2O3, indicating that the sample has no impurity phase.

[0060] Figure 2 Shows Ga 2-x Er x The luminescence spectrum of O3 (0.0025≤x≤0.02) phosphor sintered at 1250℃ for 8 hours under laser excitation with a wavelength of 980nm and a power of 400mW. The luminescence peaks centered at 524, 555 and 673nm correspond to 2 H 11 / 2 - 4 I15 / 2, 4 S 3 / 2 - 4 I 15 / 2 and 4 F 9 / 2 - 4 I 15 / 2 Transition. The green and red luminescence intensities increase with Er 3+ The luminescence intensity (543, 555 and 673 nm) changes significantly with the increase of Er ion concentration. 3+ The relationship between ion concentrations is as follows Figure 2 The luminous intensity of the three bands (543, 555 and 673nm) is 3+ The ion concentration reaches the maximum value when it is 0.015, and increases with the 3+ The further increase of ion concentration, the lower the value, that is, x = 0.015 is the best 3+ Ion doping concentration.

[0061] On this basis, in order to further improve the luminescence performance, we sintered a series of Ga 1.985 Er 0.015 O3 phosphor. Figure 3 Shows Ga sintered at different temperatures 2-xEr x The luminescence spectrum of O3 (x=0.015) phosphor under the excitation of a laser with a wavelength of 980nm and a power of 400mW. When the sintering temperature increases from 1200℃ to 1550℃, the green and red luminescence intensities change significantly. Figure 3 The inset shows the relationship between the luminescence intensity at 543, 555 and 673 nm and the sintering temperature, and the optimal sintering temperature is 1250 °C.

[0062] On this basis, in order to further improve the luminescence performance, we sintered at 1250℃ for different times to prepare a series of Ga 1.985 Er 0.015 O3 phosphor. Figure 4 Shows Ga 1.985 Er 0.015 The curve of the luminescence intensity of O3 phosphor changing with sintering time. When the sintering time increases from 0.5 hours to 32 hours, the intensity of both the green and red luminescence peaks changes. Figure 4 The illustration shows the relationship between the luminescence intensity at 543, 555 and 673 nm and the sintering time. When the sintering time is 8 hours, the phosphor shows the strongest luminescence intensity, so it can be concluded that the optimal sintering time is 8 hours.

[0063] Therefore, determine Ga 1.985 Er 0.015 Best Er for O3 phosphor 3+ The ion doping concentration, sintering temperature and sintering time are x=0.015, 1250°C and 8 hours, respectively.

[0064] On this basis, in order to obtain the best 3+ Ion doping concentration, at the optimal sintering temperature, sintering time and Er 3+ A series of different In doping concentrations (1250 ° C, 8 hours, x = 0.015) were prepared. 3+ Ga ion doping concentration 1.985- y Er 0.015 In y O3 phosphor.

[0065] Figure 5 Shows In 3+ Ion-doped Ga 1.985-y Er 0.015 In y The luminescence spectrum of O3 phosphor under the laser excitation of 980nm wavelength and 400mW power. All samples showed green luminescence at 543nm and 555nm, and red luminescence at 673nm, which is consistent with In 3+ Ion-undoped Ga2-x Er x The luminescence peak position of O3 phosphor is consistent, but the luminescence intensity is different when doped with In. 3+ ions changed, indicating that In 3+ The introduction of ions into the sample does not change Er 3+ ions, but strongly changes the wavelength of Er 3+ The luminescence intensity of the ions. Figure 5 The inset shows the luminescence intensity (543, 555 and 673 nm) versus In 3 + The relationship between ion doping concentration. As y increases, the luminous intensity of the three bands gradually increases, reaches the maximum value when y = 0.035, and decreases as y further increases. 3+ The effect of ion concentration on luminescence intensity can be distinguished intuitively by the naked eye, such as Figure 6 As shown in the photo. Therefore, Ga 1.985-y Er 0.015 In y Best In 3+ The ion doping concentration is y=0.035.

[0066] Figure 7 Ga 1.985 Er 0.015 O3 and Ga 1.95 Er 0.015 In 0.035 The photon lifetime decay curve of O3 phosphor at 555 and 673nm. The results show that at a wavelength of 555nm, Ga 1.985 Er 0.015 O3 and Ga 1.95 Er 0.015 In 0.035 The photon lifetimes of O3 are 0.020ms and 0.067ms respectively. Indium doping increases the photon lifetime of this wavelength by 235%. At a wavelength of 673nm, Ga 1.985 Er 0.015 O3 and Ga 1.95 Er 0.015 In 0.035 The photon lifetimes of O3 are 0.029ms and 0.1076ms respectively, and indium doping increases the photon lifetime of this wavelength by 271%. These results show that under the same sample preparation conditions, the introduction of In 3+ ions, the fluorescence decay time increased significantly, which is attributed to the 3+ The interaction between ions and lattice defects reduces non-radiative recombination and decay processes, allowing more electrons to transition from the excited state back to the ground state, thereby extending the fluorescence lifetime.

It can be seen that Er 3+ Ion-doped gallium oxide phosphor emits green light with a wavelength of 555nm under laser excitation. Its luminous intensity is still weak after multiplying by 20 times, while Er 3+ ions and In 3+ The luminescence intensity of the ion-co-doped gallium oxide phosphor at a wavelength of 555 nm is greatly enhanced, and its luminescence intensity is Er 3+ The luminescence intensity of the single-ion doped gallium oxide phosphor is 60 times that of the In 3+ Ion doping can effectively transfer energy to Er 3+ ions, thereby improving the luminescence intensity of Er-doped gallium oxide phosphor.
