Up-Conversion Luminescence Property of Er3+ Doped and Er3+/Yb3+ Co-Doped NBT-CT Lead-Free Piezoelectric Ceramics

Abstract

Abstract: A series of Er³⁺ doped and Er³⁺/Yb³⁺ co-doped 0.96Na_0.5Bi_0.5TiO₃-0.04CaTiO₃(NBT-CT∶xEr³⁺/yYb³⁺,x=0.002~0.015, y=0.010) lead-free piezoelectric ceramics were prepared by a solid-state sintering method. The phase structure and up-conversion luminescence properties of the samples were characterized and analyzed by X-ray diffraction and fluorescence spectrofluorometer, respectively. These results show that the main crystal phase of the samples is that of NBT. Under the excitation of a 980 nm near-infrared light, the Er³⁺ doped and Er³⁺/Yb³⁺ co-doped NBT-CT ceramics exhibit characteristic emission of Er³⁺ with strong dominant green up-conversion emissions. The optimal up-conversion luminescence performance with x=0.010 in NBT-CT∶xEr³⁺ ceramics are obtained. Yb³⁺ can act as sensitizer and significantly enhance the up-conversion luminescence intensity of Er³⁺.

Key words: lead-free piezoelectric ceramics, Na_0.5Bi_0.5TiO₃, Er³⁺/Yb³⁺, solid-state sintering method, up-conversion luminescence
