Controlled synthesis and enhanced luminescence of BiOCl:Eu3+ ultrathin nanosheets
نویسندگان
چکیده
BiOCl:Eu ultrathin nanosheets were synthesized through a facile solvothermal method with the assistance of polyvinyl pyrrolidone. The ultrathin nanosheets showed a size ranging from 50–100 nm and a height of 2.9 nm, which is about four [Cl–Bi–O–Bi–Cl] layers. In addition, the luminescence properties and mechanism were investigated in detail, and compared with that of the nanoplate. It was found that the luminescence intensity for the BiOCl:Eu ultrathin nanosheet was 6 times stronger than that of the nanoplate. Importantly, the oxygen vacancies act as a luminescence centers, and there was effective energy transfer from BiOCl ultrathin nanosheets to Eu ions. In BiOCl:Eu ultrathin nanosheets, white-light emission was observed under near-ultraviolet (NUV) excitation. These BiOCl:Eu ultrathin nanosheets exhibit great potential as color-emitting phosphors for white lightemitting diode applications.

By using 1,5-pentanediol as a capping and structure directing agent, ultrathin Eu2O3 nanosheets (<1 nm) have been synthesized and assembled into a layered structure. The lateral dimensions of the nanosheets can be tuned by simply controlling the reaction time. These layered structures exhibit a strong quantum size effect due to the extremely small thickness of the assembled nanosheets.

High-quality ultrathin two-dimensional nanosheets of α-Ni(OH)2 are synthesized at large scale via microwave-assisted liquid-phase growth under low-temperature atmospheric conditions. After heat treatment, non-layered NiO nanosheets are obtained while maintaining their original frame structure. The well-defined and freestanding nanosheets exhibit a micron-sized planar area and ultrathin thicknes...
