Self-standing membranes composed of luminescent rare-earth hydroxide and semiconducting oxide nanosheets were fabricated, exhibiting significantly enhanced emission intensity, color purity, and lifetime. The integrated membranes showed tunable color under different excitations. Strong and stable cathodoluminescence was observed under continuous cathode-ray radiation.
Self-standing membranes are fabricated by filtrating corresponding superlattice units of luminescent rare-earth hydroxide (e.g., europium doped gadolinium hydroxide (GdEu), terbium doped gadolinium hydroxide (GdTb)) nanosheets, and semiconducting oxide (e.g., Ti0.87O20.52- (TiO), TaO3- (TaO)) nanosheets. The superlattice membrane of GdEu/TiO and GdTb/TaO shows drastically enhanced emission intensity 21.5 and 38.6 times higher than that of GdEu and GdTb, respectively, as well as a higher color purity and longer lifetime. By further integrating both GdEu/TiO and GdTb/TaO superlattices, the (GdEu/TiO)/(GdTb/TaO) integrated membrane exhibits tunable color under different excitations. The superior performance is ascribed to the enhanced energy absorption by the semiconducting oxide nanosheets and efficient energy transfer to rare-earth hydroxide nanosheets across the nanointerface. Moreover, the superlattice membrane displays strong and stable cathodoluminescence under continuous cathode-ray radiation. This work demonstrates a new strategy for large-scale fabrication of self-standing membranes, which are promising for practical applications in multicolor display fields.
