Exploring Near-Infrared Emission and Optical Properties of Er3+Activated Na2BiMg2(VO4)3 Phosphors: Synthesis, Characterization, and Potential NIR Applications
摘要
A series of Er3+-doped Na2BiMg2(VO4)3 phosphor materials, abbreviated as NBMVO, were synthesized via the conventional solid-state reaction method and investigated for their near-infrared (NIR) luminescence properties. Samples with varying Er3+ concentrations (1 mol%, 2 mol%, 5 mol%, and 7 mol%) were characterized using structural and optical techniques. Under 524 nm excitation, all compositions exhibited strong and stable NIR emission centered at 1536 nm, corresponding to the 4I13/2 → 4I15/2 transition of Er3+ ions. The findings demonstrated efficient NIR emission with good structural integrity and photoluminescence stability across different doping levels. Na2BiMg2(VO4)3:Er3+ is a potential phosphor material for optical communication, biomedical imaging, and advanced photonic devices, such as C-band telecommunication and eye-safe laser technologies.
