Key areas of research involved the development of new x-ray storage phosphors and insight into the storage mechanism (Ph.D work), probing defect dynamics by high-resolution laser spectroscopy (post-doctoral research), the electron-phonon coupling of optical transitions of lanthanides and transition metal ions and the luminescence of divalent lanthanides. Since the appointment as a professor of Solid State Chemistry two main research fields are being explored: VUV Spectroscopy of Lanthanides and Quantum Cutting In order to design new luminescent materials (phosphors) for mercury free fluorescent tubes and plasma display panels, phosphors are required that convert one high energy vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photon into two visible photons (a process called “quantum cutting”). The research in this area involves both a search for efficient quantum cutters and fundamental research on the VUV luminescence of lanthanide ions, up until ten years ago an unexplored area of research. An important breakthrough was the demonstration of a 190% quantum efficiency through downconversion in the Gd-Eu couple. On the fundamental side, the famous Dieke diagrams, showing the 4fn energy level structure of trivalent lanthanides up to 40 000 cm -1, have been extended to 65000 cm-1. The VUV spectroscopy involved experimental work at the DESY synchrotron in Hamburg. High resolution VUV spectroscopy on the 4f n→4fn-15d (fd) transitions resulted in a model to calculate the observed energy fd-level structure. Energy level calculations involve a close cooperation with prof. M. Reid (New Zealand) and prof. G. Burdick (USA). Recent research involves quantum cutting with lanthanides to increase the efficiency of solar cells and luminescence of lanthanides doped into nanocrystals. Five key publications: ‘Visible quantum cutting in LiGdF4:Eu3+ through downconversion’, R. T. Wegh, H. Donker, K. D. Oskam and A.

Optical properties of Quantum Dots Semiconductor nanoparticles of sizes smaller than the exciton Bohr radius show quantum size effects. As a result of the confinement of the charge carriers (electrons in the conduction band and/or holes in the valence band) the absorption edge shifts to higher energies as the size of the nanocrystals decreases and at the edges of the bands discrete levels develop (instead of the continuum of levels observed for bulk semiconductors). The most widely studied quantum dots are II-VI semiconductor nanocrystals where for example for CdSe the luminescence is observed to shift from the red to the blue as the particle size decreases from 6 nm to 1.5 nm. The main questions addressed in this area involve the synthesis of efficiently luminescing quantum dots, insight in the relation between optical properties and size and the use of quantum dots to resolve problems in chemistry, physics and biology. Some main results are the development of size selective photoetching (to control the particle size with the color of light), luminescence temperature antiquenching (providing insight in the role of the surface), luminescence of quantum dots doped with luminescing ions, applying quantum dots to probe the relation between the spontaneous decay rate and the refractive index and the use of paramagnetic (double) resonance techniques to probe the wavefunctions of charge carriers in quantum dots (with prof. Schmidt in Leiden). Recent research will involves doped quantum dots, bio-labeling with quantum dots, NIR-emitting quantum dots and luminescence from metal nano-clusters.
