In this paper,a new upconversion luminescent material co-doped with Erbium and Ytterbium is reported. The upconversion luminescence transition routes and related properties are studied. The results show that the absorption and emission intensities under excitation of 980 nm laser increase with the increase of the Yb3+ concentration. The red emission is stronger than the green emission. The energy transfer process plays an important role in the upconversion mechanism.

The properties of poly(3-hexylthiophene):(6,6)-phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester(P3HT:PCBM) organic photovoltaic devices(OPVs) with an indium tin oxide(ITO) anode treated by a KMnO4 solution are investigated.The optimized KMnO4 solution has a concentration of 50 mg/L,and ITO is treated for 15 min.The modification of ITO anode results in an enhancement of the power conversion efficiency(PCE) of the device,which is responsible for the increase of the photocurrent.The performance enhancement is attributed to the work function modification of the ITO substrate through the strong oxygenation of KMnO4,and then the charge collection efficiency is improved.
