Abstract: | Laponite-derived materials represent promising materials for optical applications. In this work, Eu^3+- or Er^3+-doped laponite xerogels and films were prepared from colloidal dispersion. Homogeneous, crack-free and transparent single layers were deposited on soda-lime substrates with a thickness of 10 μm. Structural and spectroscopic properties were analyzed by thermal analyses, X-ray diffractometry, transmission electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and luminescence spectroscopy. The addition of a rare earth ion to the laponite does not promote any changes in thermal stability or phase transition. Laponite clay was identified after annealing up to 500 °C, with a decrease in basal spacing when the annealing temperature is changed from 100 °C to 500 °C. Enstatite polymorphs and amorphous silicate phases were observed after heat treatment at 700 °C and 900 °C. Stationary and time-dependent luminescence spectra in the visible region for Eu^3+, and 5D0 lifetime are discussed in terms of thermal treatment and structural evolution. In the layered host, the Eu^3+ ions are distributed in many different local environments. However, Eu^3+ ions were found to occupy at least two symmetry sites, and the ions are preferentially incorporated into the crystalline enstatite for the materials annealed at 700 °C and 900 °C. A 5D0 lifetime of 1.3 ms and 3.1 ms was obtained for Eu^3+ ions in an amorphous silicate and crystalline MgSiO3 local environment, respectively. Strong Er^3+ emission at the 1550 nm region was observed for the materials annealed at 900 °C, with a bandwidth of 44 nm. |
