The time dependence of Sm2+ fluorescence in orthorhombic BaCl2 was investigated between 77 and 300 K. The thermal quenching mechanism of the 4f-4f emissions Of Sm2+ was examined. The position of the lowest level of Sm2+ 4f(5)5d states was calculated from the temperature dependence of D-5(1) lifetime by the two-step quenching model and was estimated in good approximation from the emission and excitation peaks by the electron-phonon coupling theory. A growing process of D-5(0)-F-7(0) emission and a double-decay process of 5d-4f emission were observed in the time-resolved fluorescence. They show clearly the population transfer among the Sm2+ excited states via thermal transition. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
