Abstract Lanthanides (Ln 3+) are a unique class of optical materials and are extensively
used as building blocks for optoelectronic device architectures due to their outstanding …

Rare earth doped/codoped phosphors have been extensively studied for different types of
applications based on their intense luminescence features. For this, researchers have tried …

At present, near-ultraviolet-pumped white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) based on tri-color
(blue, green, and red) phosphors still suffer from insufficient color rendering index (CRI), due …

Utilization of the whole solar spectrum for the photocatalysis is still a challenge and
interesting topic. A series of novel photocatalysts are fabricated by combination of core–shell …

The unique optical characteristics of lanthanides (Ln3+) such as high color purity, long
excited-state lifetimes, less perturbation of excited states by the crystal field environment …

The synthesis of multi-wavelength emission fluorescent metal–organic framework sensors
has received widespread attention in recent years. Under solvothermal conditions, a series …

Metal clusters confined inside zeolite materials display remarkable luminescent properties,
making them very suitable as potential alternative phosphors in white LED applications …

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) combining UV-emitting LEDs (UV-LED) with multi-coloured
phosphors is one of the main strategies in solid-state lighting, opening new frontiers for the …

Bright white light emission (CIE values 0.32 and 0.33) has been achieved by a single
excitation source (254 nm) from a monodispersed nanocomposite composed of Ce3+, Tb3+ …

During this decade, solid-state lighting (SSL) has advanced rapidly for general lighting
applications. The currently used standard architecture of SSL is the most popular phosphor …
