Effect of electron traps on long afterglow behavior of Sr3Al2O6:Eu0.012+,Dy0.02-x3+,Hox3+

The long persistent phosphors Sr3Al2O6:Eu0.012+,Dy0.02-x3+,Hox3+ (x=0, 0.01, 0.02) were prepared by a high temperature solid state reaction. All samples showed a broad band emission peaking at ~510 nm, which could be ascribed to Eu2+ transition between 4f65d1 and 4f7 electron configurations. With the increase of substitution of Ho3+ ions for the Dy3+ ions in the as-prepared phosphors Sr3Al2O6:Eu0.012+,Dy0.02-x3+,Hox3+ (x=0, 0.01, 0.02), the initial intensity of the afterglow obviously decreased. From the thermoluminescence (TL) curves of the samples, we concluded that codoped Ho3+ ions led to a decline of the trap depth and redistribution of the trap. This may be responsible for the change of afterglow of Sr3Al2O6:Eu0.012+,Dy0.02-x3+,Hox3+ (x=0, 0.01, 0.02).     

Photoluminescence properties of M2ZnSi2O7:Eu2+（M=Sr,Ba）

Luminescence properties of Mn2） ions doped Lu2CaMg2Si3O1） garnet phosphors

Yttrium aluminum garnet structure phosphors Lu2CaMg2Si3O12:Mn2+ were synthesized by conventional high temperature solid-state reaction in reductive atmosphere. The structure and optical properties of samples were characterized by application of powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Results of X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that the phosphors mainly presented garnet structure with a few weak peaks of impurity phases. Lu2-xCaMg2Si3O12:xMn2+ (x=0.01-0.8) phosphors showed a broad emission band peaking at around 590 nm under ultraviolet (UV) light of 408 nm when Mn2+ concentration was less than 0.08 mol. With an increase in the Mn2+ concentration (above 0.08), another broad emission band peaking at 720 nm besides 590 nm was observed, which may be due to manganese ion having different valence and occupying different host lattice. The critical quenching concentrations of manganese ion in the wavelength of 590 and 720 nm were about 0.06 and 0.2 mol, respectively. With 408 nm excitation wavelength, emission color of the samples had a red shift trend as the Mn2+ concentration increased. All the results indicated that the Lu2CaMg2Si3O12:Mn2+ phosphors could be applicable to n-UV based white LEDs.     

Enhancement of photoluminescence of Ba2SiO4：Eu^2＋ by co-doping of La^3＋ or Y^3＋

Green light-emitting Ba2SiO4:Eu2+ phosphors co-doped with La or Y were synthesized by conventional solid-state reaction technique in reductive atmosphere (a mixture of 5% H2 and 95% N2). The results showed that the co-doping of La and Y could greatly enhance the fluorescence intensity of Ba2SiO4:Eu2+ phosphors. The optimum doping concentration expressed by the x value in (Ba0.985-1.5xREx)2SiO4: 0.03Eu2+ (RE=La or Y) was determined to be of 0.05. The excitation and emission peaks of all as-synthesized phosphors were wide bands. The excitation bands ranged from 250 to 400 nm, which matched well with the wavelength of near ultraviolet white light-emitting diodes (LED) chip and could be used as a potential candidate for the fabrication of white LED. The emission bands from 450 to 550 nm were typical 5d-4f transition emission of Eu2+ and displayed un-symmetry profiles because of the two substitution sites of Ba2+ with Eu2+.

Eu3+-doped (Y,Gd)NbO4 phosphor was synthesized by solid-state reaction for possible application in cold cathode fluorescent lamps. A broad absorption band with peak maximum at 272 nm was observed which was due to the charge transfer between Eu3+ ions and neighboring oxygen anions. A deep red emission at the peak wavelength of 612 nm was observed which could be attributed to the 5D0→7F2 transition in Eu3+ ions. The highest luminance for Y1-x-yGdyNbO4:Eux3+ under 254 nm excitation was achieved at Eu3+ concentration of 18 mol.% (x=0.18) and Gd3+ concentration of 8.2 mol.% (y=0.082). The luminance of Y0.738Gd0.082NbO4:Eu3+0.18 was higher than that of a typical commercial phosphor Y2O3:Eu3+ and the CIE chromaticity coordinate was (0.6490, 0.3506), which was deeper than that of Y2O3:Eu3+.

The Ba1-xSrxMgSiO4:Eu2+,Mn2+ phosphors were prepared by solid-state reaction. Their photoluminescence properties were inves-tigated with fluorescence spectrum and CIE chromaticity. The emission color of Eu2+ in Ba0.98-xSrxMgSiO4:0.02Eu2+ could be tuned from green to blue by adjusting the content of Sr2+. The blue emission of Eu2+ overlapped well with the excitation spectra of Mn2+, leading to an ef-ficient energy transfer from Eu2+ to Mn2+ in Ba0.98-xSrxMg1-ySiO4:0.02Eu2+,yMn2+. Ba0.93Sr0.03Mg1-ySiO4:0.02Eu2+,yMn2+ could emit three ef-ficient broad bands at 440, 530 and 640 nm. The emission color of Ba0.93Sr0.03Mg1-ySiO4:0.02Eu2+,yMn2+ could be tuned from greenish blue to yellowish white by increasing the content of Mn2+ from 0 to 0.1. By changing the content of Sr2+/Mn2+, white-light with different hues could be conveniently obtained in the Ba1-xSrxMgSiO4:Eu2+,Mn2+ phosphors. The results showed that Ba1-xSrxMgSiO4:Eu2+,Mn2+ is a promising single-phased tricolor phosphor in the fabrication of W-LED.     

Luminescent properties of Ca2SiO4:Eu3+ red phosphor for trichromatic white light emitting diodes

The luminescent properties of Eu3 doped Ca2SiO4 red phosphors synthesized by the flux fusion reaction method were investigated. It was found that the excitation spectrum included two regions: the weak excitation band below 325 nm and strong narrow peaks above 325 nm. The main peak of the excitation band was located at 400 nm. The peaks located at 290 nm were assigned to the combination of the charge transfer transition of O-Eu, peaks above 325 nm (325, 385, 400, 470, 511, and 539 nm) were assigned to the f–f transitions of Eu3 . The emission spectrum was dominated by the red peak located at 612 nm due to the electric dipole transition of 5D0–7F2. In addition, the ef- fects of the Eu3 content and charge compensators of Li , Na , K , and Cl– ions on the emission intensity were investigated. The experiment results suggested that the strongest emission was obtained when the concentration of the Eu3 ions was 0.3 mol–1, and Li ions gave the best improvement to enhance the emission intensity. Ca2SiO4:Eu3 , Li was thus suitable for low-cost trichromatic white light emitting diodes (WLED) based on UV InGaN chip.     

Photoluminescence Characteristics of Gd2Mo3O9 ： Eu Phosphor Particles by Solid State Reaction Method

Eu^3＋-doped Gd2Mo3O9 was prepared by solid-state reaction method using Na2CO3 as flux and characterized by powder X-ray diffractometry. According to X-ray diffraction, this material belonged to a tetragonal system with space group I41/α. The effects of flux content and sintering temperature on the luminescent properties were investigated with the emission and excitation spectra. The results showed that flux content and sintering temperature had effects on the luminescent properties, the optimized flux content and the best temperature was 3 % and 800 ℃ respectively. The excitation and emission spectra also showed that this phosphor could be effectively excited by C-T band （280 nm）, ultraviolet light 395 nm and blue light 465 nm. The wavelengths at 395 and 465 nm were nicely fitting in with the widely applied output wavelengths of ultraviolet or blue LED chips. Integrated emission intensity of Gd2Mo3O9 ： Eu was twice higher than that of Y2O2S ： Eu^3 ＋ under 395 nm excitation. The Eu^3＋ doped Gd2Mo309 phosphor may be a better candidate in solid-state lighting applications.     

Synthesis and Luminescent Properties of Superfine Sr2CeO4 Phosphors by Sol-Gel Auto- Combustion Method

Citric acid complexing sol-gel auto-combustion method was explored to synthesize superfine Sr2CeO4 phosphors using the inorganic salts Sr（NO3）2 and Ce（NO3）3 as raw materials together with citric acid （CA） as a chelating agent. TGDTA, XRD, SEM and photoluminescence spectra were used to investigate the formation process, microstructure and luminescent properties of the synthesized Sr2CeO4. The results show that the crystallization of Sr2CeO4 begins at about 800 ℃ and completes around 900 ℃ with an orthorhombic structure. When the calcination temperature is above 1000 ℃, Sr2CeO4 partly decomposes into SrCeO3. SEM studies show that the particles of Sr2CeO4 obtained at 900 ℃ are sphericallike shape and superfine with diameter below 100 nm. The excitation spectrum of the superfine Sr2CeO4 phosphors displays a broad band with two peaks around 290 and 350 nm respectively. The former peak is stronger than the latter one. This broad band is due to the charge transfer （CT） band of the Ce^4＋ ion. Excited by a radiation of 290 nm, the superfine phosphors emit a strong blue-white fluorescence, and the emission spectrum shows a broad band with a peak around 470 nm, which can be assigned to the f→t1g transition of Ce^4＋ . It is found that the emission intensity is affected by the calcination temperature.
