In this study, a compositional engineering strategy for highly efficient Cu+-doped zero-dimensional A(2)ZnX(4) (A = Rb, Cs; X = Cl, Br) blue emitters was developed. It was found that Cu+-doped Cs2ZnBr4 showed the best scintillation performance among these zinc halides, making it a potential candidate for sensitive X-ray detection and imaging.
Recently, doped ternary zinc halides with high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) have demonstrated great potential in light emitting applications. However, the composition-dependent photophysical properties of ternary zinc halides have not been investigated, and their X-ray scintillation performances remain unexplored. Here, a compositional engineering strategy for highly efficient Cu+-doped zero-dimensional A(2)ZnX(4) (A = Rb, Cs; X = Cl, Br) blue emitters is presented. It is found that the A-site cations show a negligible influence on the emission spectra of both pure A(2)ZnX(4) and Cu+-doped A(2)ZnX(4), while the change of the halide anion slightly shifts the emission peak of doped A(2)ZnX(4). The detailed photoluminescence (PL) studies indicate that the emission of Cu+-doped A(2)ZnX(4) may come from two self-trapped exciton (STE) emission centers, namely Zn-related and Cu-related STEs. An energy transfer process from the Zn-related STE to the Cu-related STE is proposed. Based on the composition dependent photophysical and scintillation property study, Cu+-doped Cs2ZnBr4 is found to show the best scintillation performance among these zinc halides. Cu+-doped Cs2ZnBr4 shows a relatively high light yield of similar to 10 000 photons MeV-1, a low detection limit of 57 nGy(air) s(-1), and good radiation stability. The X-ray imaging results based on a doped Cs2ZnBr4 scintillation screen show a high spatial resolution of up to 9 line pairs per millimeter. These results demonstrate that the doped Cs2ZnBr4 scintillator could be a potential candidate for sensitive X-ray detection and imaging.
