Abstract

Lead-free metal halide double perovskites with non-toxicity and stable self-trapped excitons (STEs) have received considerable attention in the field of photoelectric applications. However, it is difficult to achieve independent control of its photoluminescence performance to meet the requirements of multi-band emission. Herein, a doping strategy was employed to introduce lanthanide ions (Ln3+) into Cs2NaInCl6:Sb3+ nanocrystals (NCs), enabling the multicolor emission modulation ranging from blue to red and even white light. Benefiting from the efficient energy transfer from Sb-related self-trapped excitons to Ln3+ ions, green and red emissions originate from the 5D0→7FJ (J = 1, 2, 3, 4) transition of Eu3+ ions and 5D4-7FJ (J = 6, 5, 4, 3) transition of Tb3+ ions, respectively. According to the tunable polychromatic photoluminescence characteristics of doped NCs, the dual-mode fluorescent anti-counterfeiting applications were exhibited. Furthermore, the distinct temperature sensitivities exhibited by blue (453 nm) and red (617 nm) emission in Cs2NaInCl6:Sb3+/Eu3+ NCs provide the opportunity for the optical thermometry, which demonstrates the maximum absolute and relative sensitivity are 0.0018 and 0.43 % K−1, respectively. These results indicate that the synthesized codoped NCs have the potential applications in multifunctional fields, such as optical thermometer, fluorescence anti-counterfeiting, and multicolor-LEDs.
