The fluorescence quantum yield of khellin is sensitive to temperature and to the nature of solvents, especially the proton-donating ability in solute-to-solvent hydrogen bonding. The intersystem crossing quantum yields are 0.4 and 0.15 in acetonitrile and ethanol, respectively. The fluorescence quantum yields in ethanol and isopentane at 77 K are 0.61 and 0.07, respectively, both of which are much larger than the values at room temperature. The phosphorescence lifetime is relatively long and decreases with decreasing solvent polarity. The phosphorescence to fluorescence quantum yield ratio is very small and remains unchanged in various solvents. The results suggest that internal conversion is an important decay channel of the excited singlet state of khellin, especially in the hydrogen-bonding hydroxyl solvents.

Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) operates at high temperatures in range of 600-800℃. Since layers of SOFC are composed of different substances, different thermal expansion in SOFC can result in defects under high temperature conditions. For understanding relation between temperature field and the thermal deformation in SOFC, temperature and strain field were simultaneously estimated using thermographic phosphors by optical measurement. Temperature fields were obtained by the life-time method, and the temperature differences of one specimen was checked with thermocouple. The thermal deformation was estimated by digital image correlation (DIC) method with extracted phosphorescence images. To investigate the deformation accuracy of DIC measurement, thermographic phosphors were coated with and without grid pattern on aluminum surface. Simultaneous measurement of temperature fields and thermal deformation were carried out for YSZ. This study will be helpful to multi-sensing of temperature field and thermal deformation on SOFC cells.

We have grown the long persistent $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+},\;Dy^{3+}$ phosphor single crystal by Verneuil method. The obtained single crystals were long persistent phosphorescence peaking at ${\lambda}=520nm$ with a size of about 5 mm diameter, 55 mm length. The melting temperature of $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+},\;Dy^{3+}$ measured $T_{mp}=1968^{\circ}C$. The optimum composition was $SrCO_3:Al(OH)_3:Eu_2O_3:Dy_2O_3$ = 1 : 2 : 0.015 : 0.02. Flow rate of $H_2:O_2$ is about 4 : 1. Growthing rate is about 5 mm/hr. The spectra of the phosphorescence from the crystals are quite similar to those obtained with sintered powders used for luminous pigments. The crystalline structure of long persistent $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+},\;Dy^{3+}$ phosphor single crystal was determined by X-ray diffraction.

In this study, the $Sr_{1-x}Ba_{x}Al_{2}O_{4}:Eu^{2+},Dy^{3+}$ phosphor were prepared by the solid-state reaction method and its photoluminescence properties were investigated. Starting powders of $SrCO_3,\;BaCO_3,\;and\;Al_{2}O_3$ were mixed with $Eu_{2}O_3$ as activator, $Dy_{2}O_3$ as co-activator and $B_{2}O_3$ as flux. Then, the mixed powders were heated at the temperature of $1100{\sim}1400^{\circ}C$ for 3 h under the reducing ambient atmosphere of $95%Ar+5%H_2$. The effect of Ba addition from 0.0 to 1.0 mol on photoluminescence was investigated. As the amount of Ba increased, the intensity of emission increased and the optimum long phosphorescence occurred at the amount of 0.1 mol Ba. The optimum sintering condition for long phosphorescent phosphor of $Sr_{1-x}Ba_{x}Al_{2}O_{4}:Eu^{2+},Dy^{3+}$($x=0{\sim}1.0mol$) was found at $1400^{\circ}C$. The excitation spectra showed a broad band of $250{\sim}450nm$ with maximum peak at 360 nm. The maximum peak intensity of emission spectra occurred at the range of $480{\sim}520nm$, depending on Ba content.

The luminescence of N-methyllutidone is studied in ethanol matrix at $77^{\circ}C$K. No fluorescence is observed but a strong phosphorescence with the quantum yield of 0.1 and the lifetime of 0.2 sec is recorded. An unusually high triplet energy of 85.1 kcal/mole is determined for the compound from the O-O band of phosphorescence. The cis ${\leftrightarrow}$ trans photoisomerization of high triplet energy olefins such as 2-hexene and trans-1,4-dichlorobutene-2 is efficiently sensitized by N-methyllutidone substantiating the high triplet energy of the compound. The negative polarization of O-O band reveals the emitting triplet state to be $({\pi},{\pi}^*)^3$ state. Alkaline metal salts such as lithium chloride enhances the phosphorescence intensity through cation-N-methyllutidone coordination widening the gap between $({\pi},{\pi}^*)^3$and $(n,{\pi}^*)^3$ states.

Recently, Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) synthetic diamonds have been introduced to the jewelry gem market, as CVD technology has been making considerable advances. Unfortunately, CVD diamonds are not distinguishable from natural diamonds when using the conventional gemological characterization method. Therefore, we need to develop a new identification method that is non-destructive, fast, and inexpensive. In our study, we employed optical microscopy and spectroscopy techniques, including Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR), UV-VIS-NIR, photoluminescence (PL), micro Raman, and cathodoluminescent (CL) spectroscopy, to determine the differences between a natural diamond (0.30 cts) and a CVD diamond (0.43 cts). The identification of a CVD diamond was difficult when using standard gemological techniques, UV-VIS-NIR, or micro-Raman spectroscopy. However, a CVD diamond could be identified using a FT-IR by the Type II peaks. In addition, we identified a CVD diamond conclusively with the uneven UV fluorescent local bands, additional satellite PL peaks, longer phosphorescence life time, and uneven streaks in the CL images. Our results suggest that using FT-IR combined with UV fluorescent images, PL, and CL analysis might be an appropriate method for identifying CVD diamonds.
