Sumario: | Abstract The conversion of NIR light into visible light has been studied in Ho3+/Yb3+/Bi3+ co-doped ZnGa2O4 phosphor for the first time. The crystallinity and particles size of the phosphor increase through Bi3+ doping. The absorption characteristics of Ho3+, Yb3+ and Bi3+ ions are identified by the UV–vis-NIR measurements. The Ho3+ doped phosphor produces intense green upconversion (UC) emission under 980 nm excitations. The emission intensity ~ excitation power density plots show contribution of two photons for the UC emissions. The UC intensity of green emission is weak in the Ho3+ doped phosphor, which enhances upto 128 and 228 times through co-doping of Yb3+ and Yb3+/Bi3+ ions, respectively. The relative and absolute temperature sensing sensitivities of Ho3+/Yb3+/5Bi3+ co-doped ZnGa2O4 phosphor are calculated to be 13.6 × 10−4 and 14.3 × 10−4 K−1, respectively. The variation in concentration of Bi3+ ion and power density produces excellent color tunability from green to red via yellow regions. The CCT also varies with concentration of Bi3+ ion and power density from cool to warm light. The color purity of phosphor is achieved to 98.6% through Bi3+ doping. Therefore, the Ho3+/Yb3+/Bi3+:ZnGa2O4 phosphors can be suitable for UC-based color tunable devices, green light emitting diodes and temperature sensing. |
