摘要
This review summarizes recent work in nanostructured insulating materials that contain optically active lanthanide ions. These materials find applications in lasers, optical amplifiers, and optical-display phosphors. This review concentrates on the synthesis and luminescence spectroscopy of lanthanide-containing nanostructured particles, films, and composites. Spectroscopic studies range from basic luminescence spectroscopy and quantum efficiency measurements to high-resolution spectroscopic studies that investigate the phonon dynamics and electron-phonon interaction as a function of particle size. This review identifies several areas for further study, including the location, distribution, or segregation of dopants in nanoparticles; the efficiency of energy transfer across interfaces; and the effects of quantum confinement or changes in phonon dynamics and electron-phonon interactions on the radiative and nonradiative relaxation rates in localized luminescent dopants.
