RESUMO
We report novel efficient Mn4+ phosphors of composition K3HF2MO2F4:Mn4+ (M = Mo, W) containing [HF2]- and octahedral [MO2F4]2- building units. The phosphor exhibits strong absorption at 450 nm and an external quantum yield of 90%. K3HF2WO2F4:0.01Mn4+ provides a sufficiently high quenching temperature T1/2 of about 400 K and is applicable as a converter for (In,Ga)N LEDs. The EPR spectrum is consistent with the presence of a MnF62- species at giso = 1.983. 19F MAS NMR results confirm the 2 : 1 ratio of the metal-bound fluoride species to the hydrogen difluoride group as predicted from the chemical formula. There are two distinct M-bonded species in a 1 : 1 ratio, indicating that the W and Mo octahedra are exclusively of the MO2F42- type, with the two oxygen atoms in cis-position. Their extremely sharp 19F resonances indicate a fast, near-isotropic reorientational process at room temperature that is on the millisecond timescale. For the HF2- group, the 19F and 1H MAS NMR spinning sideband profiles reveal the geometry of a linear centrosymmetric three-spin system with an H-F bond distance of 1.14 Å.
RESUMO
The case of rotational echo double resonance (REDOR) experiments on the observe nuclei 11B and 31P interacting with multiple I=1 quadrupolar nuclei is analyzed in detail by SIMPSON simulations and experimental studies. The simulations define the region within the parameter space spanned by nutation frequency, quadrupolar coupling constant and spinning frequency where the parabolic analysis of the initial REDOR curve in terms of dipolar second moments has validity. The predictions are tested by experimental studies on the crystalline model compounds lithium diborate and lithium pyrophosphate, which are subsequently extended to measure dipolar second moments M2(11B{6Li}) and M2(31P{6Li}) in three borophosphate glasses. The data indicate that the lithium cations interact significantly more strongly with the phosphate than with the borate species, despite the formally anionic character of four-coordinate boron and the formally neutral character of the ultraphosphate (P(3)) units to which they are linked.
