Phonon-Assisted Upconversion Photoluminescence of a Self-Trapped Exciton in the Rb 2 CuCl 3 Single Crystal.
Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters 2022 December 24
Phonon-assisted upconversion photoluminescence (UCPL) plays an important role in a wide range of fields such as optical refrigeration, sensitive optical thermometry, quantum state control, and upconversion optoelectronics. High photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and strong electron-phonon coupling are two basic prerequisites of efficient UCPL materials. The self-trapped exciton (STE) system with the above-mentioned advantages hints that it may be a good candidate for phonon-assisted UCPL. Here, we synthesized Rb2 CuCl3 single crystals (SCs) which yield a high PLQY of the STE emission at 400 nm, and an efficient phonon-assisted UCPL was demonstrated at room temperature. By exponentially fitting the intensity of temperature-dependent UCPL spectra, we obtained an optical thermometry sensitivity of SCs up to 6 mK at 295 K. We also propose that net cooling would be possible if the PLQY is improved up to 91.5% with 345 nm excitation. Our results open a new door to explore laser cooling in STE systems.
