The bismuth doped aluminosilicate phases leucite (KAlSi2O6), gallium leucite (KGaSi2O6)
and pollucite (CsAlSi2O6) display broadband NIR photoluminescence. The active center …

Thermal treatment of bismuth-embedded zeolite Y yields luminescent Bi+ substructures
without the formation of metallic nanoparticles. The structural and photophysical features of …

The absorption, excitation, and ultrabroadband near-infrared luminescence spectra of
Bismuth were investigated in H_2-annealed and γ-irradiated Bi: α-BaB_2O_4 (α-BBO) …

Synthesizing highly luminescent active iondoped phosphors is desirable for many related
applications but, remains challenging when a conventional solid-state reaction method is …

Glasses with compositions of 34.5 SiO2–25AlPO4–12.5 Al2O3–12.5 B2O3–15R2O–0.5
Bi2O3 (R= Li, Na, K) were synthesized. Characteristic absorption bands of bismuth centered …

Ultrabroadband near-IR (NIR) emission has been realized in bismuth-embedded sodalite
nanocrystals. Steady-state and time-resolved photoluminescence and Raman results …

The optical properties of zeolites annealed at various temperatures are investigated for the
first time. The annealed zeolites exhibit strong white photoluminescence (PL) under …

The effect of P2O5 on infrared luminescence properties of bismuth-doped SiO2–Al2O3–CaO
(SAC) glass was investigated. Under excitation of 690 and 808nm LD, two infrared …
