Photon energy (eV)
• Optical band gap: ~320 nm; 3.65 eV
• Broadening of the absorption band in the doped samples likely stems from O2-/Sm3+ charge transfer
• The 4f-4f transitions of Sm3+ exhibit unusually strong absorption in LBLM
• Reflectance is close to 100% in the orange to red spectral region which is important for high efficiency
• Pumping is possible via one of themultiplets between 360 and 550 nm
December 03rd, 2015 9Florian Baur and Thomas Jüstel
Sm3+:Li3Ba2La3(MoO4)8 Emission & Excitation
• CT band consists of two components(282 nm/4.40 eV & 310 nm/4.01 eV): Sm3+ and Mo6+ CT bands

Sm3+:Li3Ba2La3(MoO4)8 Emission f(T)
• With decreasing temperature lines sharpen due to lowered vibronic interactions
• A small blue-shift can be observed, presumably caused by lattice constriction (cf. red-shift caused by high-pressure: Rad Eff Defect Solid 169 (2014) 48))
• A bi-sigmoidal behaviour was observed, likely resulting from competitive absorption of host material and Sm3+

Sm3+:Li3Ba2La3(MoO4)8 Decay
• Decay behaviour strongly depends on Sm3+ concentration
• Fast non-radiative processes (cross-relaxation 4G5/2
6F5/2 / 6H5/26F11/2)
shorten the decay time at higher Sm3+
concentrations
• Bi-exponential decay curve atconcentrations larger than 2% isassumedly linked to second doping site
• IQE = Wr/(Wr+Wnr) – begins to decrease at concentration larger than 0.25%
December 03rd, 2015 12Florian Baur and Thomas Jüstel
Sm3+:Li3Ba2La3(MoO4)8 Decay f(T)
• Decay times remain constant up to 500 K
• IQE remains constant up to 500 K,contrary to emission intensity photon escape effeciency decreases
• This observation might be explained by temperature-driven reversible formation of Mo5+ defects
• Lower decay time at 100 K might be an outlier or start of a trend
• He-cryostat measurements necessary for further investigation

Sm3+:Li3Ba2La3(MoO4)8 Quantum Efficiencies
• A relatively high QE of 44% could be realized, this is rare in crystalline materials where high phonon frequencies quench Sm3+
NIR transitions
• Decay constants (i.e. IQE) decrease with increasing Sm3+
concentration, probably caused by cross-relaxation processes
December 03rd, 2015 14Florian Baur and Thomas Jüstel
Ho3+:Li3Ba2La3(MoO4)8 Reflection
• The 4f-4f transitions of Ho3+ exhibit unusually strong absorption in LBLM
• 1% Ho3+ exhibits only 60% reflection around 450 nm, which is useful for pumping with blue laser diodes
• Reflectance approaches 100%, indicating high sample quality
• Host absorption band is broader than in the undoped material

• Relative intensities of the high energy lines of the multiplet increases
• This might be related to the emission originating from two separate levels: 5F4 & 5S2
• The position of the lines does not shift with temperature

Ho3+:Li3Ba2La3(MoO4)8 Emission f(T)
• Bi-sigmoidal behaviour similar to that of the Sm3+ doped sample
• This seems to be a characteristic property of LBLM host material and molybdates in general, see F. Baur & T. Jüstel, Aust J Chem 68 (2015) 1727

Li3Ba2La3(MoO4)8 Conclusions
• High-quality, single-phase powder samples of Li3Ba2La3(MoO4)8 doped with Sm3+, Ho3+
or Er3+ were synthesized employing conventional solid state synthesis
• SEM images revealed particles (diameter ~ 5 µm) with a relatively uniform morphology, suitable for sintering towards transparent ceramics
• Strong absorption from the forbidden 4f-4f transition could be observed even in low-doped samples
• 44% EQE was found in the LBLM:Sm3+ (2%) sample
• Temperature-dependence of IQE and EQE differ, indicating a decrease in photon escapeefficiency at elevated temperatures
• LBLM:Ho3+ exhibits very fast decay (low figure µs-range), very low dopantconcentrations will be required to increase decay times
• LBLM:Er3+ powder samples were successfully prepared and first measurements of theoptical properties conducted
