Abstract
A new type of bismuth doped Ba2B5O9Cl crystal is reported to exhibit broadband near infrared (NIR) photoluminescence at room temperature, which has been identified here originating from elementary bismuth atom. Rietveld refining, static and dynamic spectroscopic properties reveal two types of Bi0 centers in the doped compound due to the successful substitution for two different nine-coordinated barium lattice sites. These centers can be created only in a reducing condition, and when treated in air and N2/H2 flow in turn, they can be removed and restored reversely. As the dwelling time is prolonged in N2/H2 at high temperature, conversion from Bi2+ to Bi0, as reflected by changes of their relative emission intensities, is witnessed in the crystal of Ba2B5O9Cl:Bi. The lifetime of the NIR luminescence was observed in a magnitude of ~30 μs, rather different from bismuth doped either glasses or crystals reported previously.
