Abstract

In this study, monodisperse and uniform LaOF hollow spheres were successfully synthesized through a novel facile synthetic route employing a La(OH)CO3 sphere as a sacrificial template followed by a subsequent calcination process. The structure, morphology, formation process, and luminescence properties were well investigated using various techniques. The possible formation mechanism of evolution from the La(OH)CO3 spheres to the LaCO3F precursor, and to the final LaOF hollow spheres can be attributed to the Kirkendall effect and the decomposition of the LaCO3F precursor. Under ultraviolet excitation, the LaOF:Ln3+ (Ln = Eu,Tb) hollow spheres show their characteristic f–f emissions and exhibit red, green emissions, respectively. Moreover, by codoping the Tb3+ and Eu3+ ions into the LaOF host and tuning their relative concentration ratio, multicolor tunable emissions are obtained due to the efficient energy transfer from Tb3+ to Eu3+ at 378 nm excitation. This material may find potential application in color display fields.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
