The objective of this study was to investigate the photoluminescence properties of Al4B2O9:M (M = Dy3+, Sm3+, and Tb3+). The solution combustion method was employed to prepare Al4B2O9 doped with M ions. The synthesized aluminum borates were subjected to phase analysis using X-ray diffraction, while their photoluminescence properties were evaluated using a spectrofluorometer. Under excitation at 352 nm, Al4B2O9:Dy3+ exhibited emission peaks at 484, 578, and 701 nm. Similarly, when excited at 402 nm, Al4B2O9:Sm3+ emitted light at 563, 599, 645, and 702 nm. Finally, upon excitation at 238 nm, Al4B2O9:Tb3+ emitted light at 489, 544, 588, and 622 nm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of this study was to investigate the photoluminescence properties of Bi3+-activated Sr3B2O6. Pure Sr3B2O6 and Bi3+-doped Sr3B2O6 were synthesized by a solution combustion method. The phase and photoluminescence analyses of the borates that were synthesized were determined by using X-ray diffraction and a spectrofluorometer respectively at room temperature. It was observed that the synthesized Bi3+-doped Sr3B2O6 emitted blue light (441 nm) upon excitation with 366 nm. Finally, the Stokes shift of Sr3B2O6:Bi3+ was calculated and found to be 4646 cm–1.

Dy 3+ and Sm 3+ doped Li 4 CaB 2 O 6 materials were prepared by the solid state reaction. The phase analysis of all phosphors were determined using the X- Ray Powder Diffraction Analysis. The photoluminescence (PL) properties of both phosphors were investigated using spectrofluorometer at room temperature. The first luminescent material, Li 4 CaB 2 O 6 : Dy 3+ emits 489, 577 and 674 nm upon excitation with 345 nm. The second luminescent material, Li 4 CaB 2 O 6 : Sm 3+ , emits (565–570), (602–609), 650 and 712 nm upon excitation with 404 nm. Also, the dependence of the emission intensity on the activator ions (Dy 3+ and Sm 3+ ) concentration for the Li 4 CaB 2 O 6 were studied in detail. It was observed that the concentration quenching of Dy 3+ and Sm 3+ in Li 4 CaB 2 O 6 are 0.05 and 0.06 mol, respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Pure and Pb2+ doped M2Mg(BO3)2 (M=Sr, Ba) materials were synthesized at 900°C for 12h in air. The phases of the synthesized materials were determined using the powder XRD.
