Presentation Title:<br />

Preparation and photoluminescence characterizations of Ln-photoactivated oxide nanosheets for<br />

new phosphor development<br />

<strong>Abstract</strong>:<br />

Nanomaterials have many practical properties for developing phosphor materials. Especially,<br />

those with the sheet morphology are suitable for optical device fabrications. We have recently<br />

prepared a new kind of nanosheet-based phosphors. These new phosphors consist of transition<br />

metal oxide nanosheets as hosts and intrananosheet site Ln (rare earth) ions as photoactivators.<br />

The emission wavelength of the Ln photoactivators is characteristic to the f-f transitions of each<br />

Ln ion. Thus, phosphors with a desired emission wavelength can be designed utilizing the Ln<br />

activators. In addition, the morphology of the nanosheet host can be utilized to effectively absorb<br />

excitation energy and to reduce the cross relaxation among the nearby photoactivators.<br />

Moreover, by incorporating the Ln activators in intrananosheet sites rather than in internanosheet<br />

sites, efficient host-to-activator transfer of excitation energy is expected due to the close<br />

interaction between the nanosheet hosts and the activators. The concept of new nanosheet-based<br />

phosphor design, and preparation and characterizations of the new nanosheet phosphors will be<br />

presented.<br />
