The luminescent colors of tungstate nanowires primarily depend on their crystal structure, types of cations, purity of the compounds, and the presence of activators. Based on existing research, tungstate nanowires can emit various colors of light under specific conditions, mainly including the following:
- Blue Light
- Self-Activated Emission: Many tungstate nanowires, such as ZnWO₄ and BaWO₄, can emit efficient blue light when excited by UV, X-rays, or cathode rays (CR). This blue emission primarily originates from the intrinsic emission of tungstate ions (WO₄²⁻), specifically from the charge transfer transitions between oxygen and tungsten atoms.
- Impurity Activation: In some cases, incorporating specific rare earth elements or other impurities into the tungstate nanowires can further enhance or modulate their blue light emission.
- Green Light
- Emission Under Specific Conditions: Although blue light is the more common luminescent color of tungstate nanowires, under certain specific conditions (such as different excitation sources, nanowire sizes, or preparation methods), some tungstate nanowires may also emit green light. This could be related to the internal energy level structure and electronic transition processes within the nanowires.
- Other Colors
- Multicolor Emission: Notably, some tungstate nanowires may exhibit multiple luminescent colors simultaneously (such as blue-green or blue-red combinations), depending on the types and quantities of internal luminescent centers. Additionally, by altering the composition, structure, and excitation conditions of the nanowires, a wider range of luminescent colors may be achieved.
In summary, the luminescent colors of tungstate nanowires mainly include blue and green light, with the possibility of other colors under certain conditions. These luminescent colors not only enrich the application fields of tungstate nanowires (such as in lighting, displays, and detection) but also provide scientists with more opportunities to explore their underlying luminescent mechanisms and optimize their performance. It is important to note that the specific luminescent color can vary based on factors such as the type, size, purity of the nanowires, and the excitation conditions.
