Abstract

Application of pressure to the nonemitting system Lu₂O₃:Ce³⁺ leads to the generation of luminescence in the visible. The luminescence is assigned to the 5d→4f transition of Ce³⁺, and is attributed to a pressure-induced electronic-crossover of the excited 5d state of Ce³⁺ and the conduction-band edge of Lu₂O³. The results yield insight into the emission efficiency of 5d→4f transitions, and provide a foundation for advancing new phosphors and tunable laser materials in the visible and ultraviolet based on the broad 5d→4f emission of lanthanides.
