Site Occupancies, VUV-UV-vis Photoluminescence, and X-ray Radioluminescence of Eu²⁺-Doped RbBaPO₄

RbBaPO4:Eu2+ phosphors have been prepared by a high-temperature solid-state reaction method, and the structure was determined by Rietveld refinement based on powder X-ray diffraction (P-XRD) data. Their VUV-UV-vis photoluminescence properties are systematically investigated with three objectives: (1) based on low-temperature spectra, we...

A numerical Bayesian-calibrated characterization method for multiscale prepreg preforming simulations with tension-shear coupling

Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs) are attracting growing attention in industry because of their enhanced properties. Preforming of thermoset carbon fiber prepregs is one of the most common production techniques of CFRPs. To simulate preforming, several computational methods have been developed. Most of these methods, however, obtain...

Vacuum ultraviolet-ultraviolet and x-ray excited luminescence properties of Ba3Gd(BO3)3:Ce3+

The phosphors Ba3Gd(BO3)3:Ce3+ were prepared by a solid-state reaction technique at high temperature. The vacuum ultraviolet-ultraviolet and visible spectroscopic properties of the phosphors together with decay time curves are investigated and discussed. The spectroscopic properties are explained by occupancy of Ce3+ at two different Gd sites in...
