“…Lanthanoid ion-doped glasses or glass ceramics are considered as a novel generation of luminescence materials and potentially have many applications in optical fibres, solid-state lasers, optical thermometry sensors, waveguides, infrared detectors, and display devices. Two recent reviews show the progress of lanthanoid-doped fluorosilicate glasses [206] and of Dy 3+ -doped glasses for white light emission [207].…”

Rare earths, scandium, yttrium, and the fifteen lanthanoids from lanthanum to lutetium, are classified as critical metals because of their ubiquity in daily life. They are present in magnets in cars, especially electric cars; green electricity generating systems and computers; in steel manufacturing; in glass and light emission materials especially for safety lighting and lasers; in exhaust emission catalysts and supports; catalysts in artificial rubber production; in agriculture and animal husbandry; in health and especially cancer diagnosis and treatment; and in a variety of materials and electronic products essential to modern living. They have the potential to replace toxic chromates for corrosion inhibition, in magnetic refrigeration, a variety of new materials, and their role in agriculture may expand. This review examines their role in sustainability, the environment, recycling, corrosion inhibition, crop production, animal feedstocks, catalysis, health, and materials, as well as considering future uses.

“…In recent years, considerable efforts have been devoted to the luminescent materials with mid‐infrared emission spectral region, which has shown great potential in broad applications of communication, molecular spectroscopy, eye‐safe radar, and biomedicine. [ 1–7 ] Among rare‐earth ions, Tm 3+ is an important luminescent emitter that is able to generate infrared emission at around 1.8 μm through its 3 F 4 → 3 H 6 transition, [ 8 ] and the emission band can cover a broad spectral range of 1700–2000 nm. [ 9 ] Tm 3+ has absorption at around 808 nm due to its 3 H 6 → 3 H 4 absorption transition, and consequently is excitable by commercial ≈800 nm semiconductor laser in early works.…”

“…[7,25] These bulk host materials also limit their applications in nanophotonics. [4] In contrast, rare-earth-doped nanocrystals have advantages of small particle size, good physical and chemical stability, high doping concentration, high visible and infrared luminescence efficiency, mature synthesis method, and low cost.

Enabling Efficient Mid‐Infrared Luminescence of Tm³⁺ in a Single Core–Shell Nanocrystal through Erbium Sublattice

Mid‐infrared luminescence at around 1.8 μm has shown great potential in many frontier photonic fields. However, how to realize the 1.8 μm emission of Tm3+ with multiple pump wavelengths and in particular in nanosized hosts has remained a challenge so far. Herein, an erbium sublattice–based core–shell nanostructure is proposed to achieve the multiwavelength excitable mid‐infrared emission of Tm3+ at around 1.8 μm from its 3F4 → 3H6 transition. The core–shell engineering and cross‐relaxation help to improve the population of Er3+ at its 4I13/2 energy level and subsequent energy transfer to Tm3+ (3F4) for its efficient 1.8 μm emission upon 808, 980, and 1530 nm excitations. The modulation of energy‐transfer channels by codoping other rare‐earth ions shows that introducing a small amount of Ce3+ into the erbium sublattice can enhance the 1.8 μm emission of Tm3+ through favorable cross‐relaxation processes. Moreover, the 1.8 μm emission is further significantly enhanced by designing a core–shell–shell nanostructure with a NaYF4:Yb‐sensitizing interlayer, which is able to maximize the absorption of 980 nm excitation energy. These results provide a new conceptual nanosized model for mid‐infrared luminescent materials toward infrared biophotonics and microlasers.
