摘要
We report on a novel elastico-mechanoluminescence (EML) phosphor of CaZr(PO4)(2):Eu2+ for simultaneous luminescent sensing and imaging to mechanical load by the light-emitting of Eu2+ ions. The EML properties of CaZr(PO4)(2):Eu2+ show an intense luminance (above 15 mcd m(-2)), a low load threshold (below 5 N), a broad measurement range for the dynamic load (up to 2000 N), and an accurate linear relationship of EML intensity against the applied load. The excellent EML characteristics are considered to originate from the piezoelectric crystal structure and the multiple trap levels with appropriate depths. An EML mechanism based on the electrons as the main charge carriers is proposed. (C) 2013 Optical Society of America
