Abstract

Eu²⁺, Dy³⁺, and Er³⁺ ions codoped SrAl₂ O₄ phosphors with near infrared (NIR) (at 1530 nm) long-persistent phosphorescence were synthesized by a combustion method. The NIR phosphorescence emission was realized through a persistent energy transfer process from Eu²⁺ ions to Er³⁺ ions. Optimal Er ³⁺ concentration for the maximum energy transfer efficiency was determined and NIR phosphorescence persisting for more than 10 min was achieved. A model of charge trapping and energy transfer process among Eu, Dy, and Er ions in SrAl₂ O₄ host was proposed.
