Abstract
- The development of thermally stable and efficient broadband near-infrared (NIR) phosphors suffers from severe hindrance. Herein, a unique anti-fluorescence quenching is realized in a novel Cs 2 NaGaF 6 : Cr3+ NIR fluoride phosphor with a strategy of integrating the structural confinement effect with weak electron-phonon coupling effect. Upon blue light excitation, this phosphor exhibits a wide emission band with a peak wavelength of ∼789 nm and a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 117 nm. Thanks to the structural confinement effect, a large quenching content of 20 mol% and a high internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of 87.4% are achieved, showing a suppressed concentration quenching behavior. Significantly, Cs 2 NaGaF 6 : 0.20Cr3+ phosphor possesses an abnormal zero thermal quenching, which could be related with the weaker electron-phonon coupling effect. The emission intensity of Cs 2 NaGaF 6 : 0.20Cr3+ at 423 K can maintain up to 101.96% of that at 298 K. A fabricated NIR phosphor-converted light-emitting diode (pc-LED) exhibits an output power of 57.71 mW and a photoelectric conversion efficiency as high as 19.24% at 100 mA. Finally, utilizing a high-power NIR LED as the illuminant for traffic surveillance, significant information can be captured even in low-visibility environments. As a result, Cs 2 NaGaF 6 : Cr3+ possesses tremendous prospects in high-power NIR LEDs. [Display omitted] • A novel structure-confined fluoride NIR phosphor Cs 2 NaGaF 6 : Cr3+ was obtained. • Suppressed concentration quenching and high internal quantum efficiency of 87.4% were realized. • This phosphor possesses an abnormal zero thermal quenching effect (101.96% @423 K). • The NIR pc-LED device can be applied in traffic surveillance.
