Synthesis and optical characterization of Eu2+,Tb3+-codoped Sr3Y(PO4)3 green phosphors

A series of Eu~(2+),Tb~(3+)-codoped Sr_3 Y(PO_4)_3(SYP) green phosphors were synthesized by hightemperature solid-state reaction. Several techniques, such as X-ray diffraction, UV-vis spectrum,and photoluminescence spectrum, were used to investigate the obtained phosphors. The present study investigates in detail photoluminescence excitation and emission properties, energy transfer between the two dopants, and effects of doping ions on optical band gap. SYP:0.05 Eu2+ phosphor shows an intense and broad excitation band ranging from 220 to 400 nm and exhibits a bright green emission band with CIE chromaticity coordinates(0.189, 0.359) under 350 nm excitation. Green emission of SYP:0.03 Tb3+ is intensified by codoping with Eu~(2+), and energy transfer mechanism between them is demonstrated to be a dipole-dipole interaction. Upon 350 nm excitation, SYP:Eu~(2+),Tb~(3+) phosphors exhibits two dominating bands peaking at 466 and 545 nm, which are assigned to 4 f~65 d~1→4 f~7 transition of Eu~(2+) ions and ~5 D_4→~7 F_5 transition of Tb~(3+) ions, respectively. Optimal doping concentrations of Eu~(2+) and Tb~(3+) in the SYP host are 5 mol% and 15 mol%, respectively. Results indicate that SYP:Eu~(2+),Tb~(3+) phosphors are potentially used as green-emitting phosphors for white light-emitting diodes.     

A single-phase full-color phosphor Sr2Ca2La(PO4)3O:Eu2+,Tb3+,Mn2+: Photoluminescence and energy transfer

A single-phase full-color emitting phosphor Sr₂Ca₂La(PO₄)₃O:Eu²⁺,Tb³⁺,Mn²⁺ was synthesized by the high temperature solid-state method. The phase formation, luminescence properties, thermal stability, and energy transfer from Eu²⁺ to Tb³⁺ and Eu²⁺ to Mn²⁺ in Sr₂Ca₂La(PO₄)₃O were investigated in details. Tunable emission color from blue to blueish green or orange can be observed under 365 nm near-ultraviolet excitation based on the energy transfer from Eu²⁺ to Tb³⁺ or Mn²⁺ ions by varying the ratio of Eu²⁺/Tb³⁺ or Eu²⁺/Mn²⁺ ions. White light was obtained with chromaticity coordinates of (0.3558, 0.3500) in the Sr₂Ca₂La(PO₄)₃O:0.04Eu²⁺,0.08Tb³⁺,0.40Mn²⁺ phosphor, suggesting their potential applications in white light emitting diodes.     

Single-phase white-emitting and tunable color phosphor Na3Sc2(PO4)3:Eu2+,Dy3+: Synthesis,luminescence and energy transfer

A series of Eu²⁺/Dy³⁺ single doped and co-doped Na₃Sc₂(PO₄)₃ phosphors were synthesized by the high-temperature solid-state method, and their phase, morphology, and luminescence properties were characterized. Under the excitation of 370 nm, the Na₃Sc₂(PO₄)₃:Eu²⁺,Dy³⁺ phosphor can emit white light whose spectrum is composed of a broad emission band centered at 460 nm and the other three peaks at 483, 577, and 672 nm, respectively. There is energy transfer from Eu²⁺ to Dy³⁺ ion in Na₃Sc₂(PO₄)₃:Eu²⁺,Dy³⁺ phosphor due to the good overlap between the emission spectrum of Na₃Sc₂(PO₄)₃:Eu²⁺ and the excitation spectrum of Na₃Sc₂(PO₄)₃:Dy³⁺, which is further confirmed by the fluorescence lifetime decrease of Eu²⁺ ion with the increase of Dy³⁺ concentration. The process of energy transfer is via dipole–quadruple interaction which is confirmed by applying Dexter's theory. By increasing the Dy³⁺ concentration, the color coordinates of the Na₃Sc₂(PO₄)₃:0.01Eu²⁺,xDy³⁺ phosphors can be adjusted from blue to white, and then to yellow. The optimized concentration of Dy³⁺ ions is 4.0 mol%, beyond which the concentration quenching will take place. The Na₃Sc₂(PO₄)₃:Eu²⁺,Dy³⁺ phosphor shows fairly good resistance to thermal quenching behavior, of which the emission intensity at 423 K can maintain 90.3% of the initial value (298 K). These results suggest that the Na₃Sc₂(PO₄)₃:0.01Eu²⁺,xDy³⁺ phosphors have potential applications as the color-tunable or a single-phase white emitting phosphor in white LEDs.     

Synthesis and luminescence properties of Tb3+/Eu3+ co-doped GdAlO3 phosphors with enhanced red emission

The(Gd_(0.97-x)Eu_xTb_(0.03))AIO_3(x= 0.005-0.07) phosphors were synthesized by the co-precipitation method,using ammonium bicarbonate as a precipitant.The combined technologies of FT-IR,XRD,FESEM,PLE/PL and photo luminescence decay analysis were used to study the phase evolution,morphologies and luminescent properties.The phosphors with good dispersion exhibit strong vivid red emission located at 617 nm(~5 D_0-~7 F_2 transition of Eu~(3+)) under the optimal excitation wavelength of 275 nm(~4 f~8-4 f~75 d~1 transition of Tb~(3+),~8 S_(7/2)→6~I_J transition of Gd~(3+)).The presence of Gd~(3+) and Tb~(3+) excitation bands on the PLE spectra monitoring the Eu~(3+) emission directly gives an evidence of Tb~(3+) → Eu~(3+) and Gd~(3+) → Eu~(~(3+)) energy transfer,The emission intensity varies with the Eu~(3+) amount,and the quenching concentration is ～5 at% which is close to the calculated value.The quenching mechanism is determined to be the exchange reaction between Eu~(3+).The temperature-dependent PL analysis indicates that the best(Gd_(0.92)Eu_(0.05)Tb_(0.03))AlO_3 sample possesses good thermally stable properties.All the(Gd_(0.97-x)Eu_xTb_(0.03))AIO_3 phosphors in this work have similar CIE chromaticity coordinates and color temperatures,which are(0.65 ± 0.02,0.35 ± 0.02) and ～2558 K,respectively.Fluorescence decay analysis shows that the lifetime for～617 nm emission decreases with the content of Eu~(3+) and temperature increasing.Owing to the Tb~(3+)→ Eu~(3+) energy transfer,the luminescent properties of the(Gd_(0.92)Eu_(0.05)Tb_(0.03))AlO_3 phosphors are superior to the single Eu~(~(3+)) doped sample(Gd_(0.95)Eu_(0.05))AlO_3.As a result,the prepared phosphors may be widely used in solid-state display and light emitting devices.

The phosphors emit warm-white luminescence under vacuum ultraviolet excitation of 147 nm, which consists of three main emission peaks located at 475, 570 and 662 nm, respectively.According to the luminescence and color chromaticity of the optimal sample KSrPO_4:1 mol%Dy~(3+),1.3 mol%Li~+, it can be a potential candidate for mercury-free fluorescent lamps.

Effect of Eu3+ doping on luminescence properties of a KAlSiO4:Sm3+ phosphor

This study presents the photoluminescence characteristic analysis of a series of red phosphors of KAlSiO₄:1.5 mol%Sm³⁺,x mol%Eu³⁺ (x = 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) prepared via high-temperature solid-phase reaction. The results show that the X-ray diffraction (XRD) refinement results are reliable. The unit cell parameters and volume gradually decrease as the Eu³⁺ concentration increases, resulting in a grain size reduction of 10.22%. When x = 6, the emission peaks of Sm³⁺ at 564, 601, and 651 nm disappear completely, and the corresponding full width at half maximum becomes 0. At 610 nm, the emission peak intensity of Eu³⁺ is increased by a factor of 4.8. The resonant non-radiative energy transfer effect is greater than the co-excitation effect. A maximum energy transfer efficiency of 97.8% is achieved. The integral area at 610 nm is as high as 85%. The color purity of the phosphor is as high as 92.97%, and the internal quantum yield gradually changes from 32% to 51%. Ultimately, these results confirm that the silicate phosphor is suitable for the red component in the three primary color phosphors of white light-emitting diodes.

This paper investigates the photoluminescence properties of NaCaTiNbO_6:Pr~(3+) and NaCaTiNbO_6:Pr~(3+),Bi~(3+) phosphors. NaCaTiNbO_6:Pr~(3+) and NaCaTiNbO_6:Pr~(3+),Bi~(3+) powder were synthesized successfully by solid state reaction method. Phase purity was checked using X-ray powder diffractometry(XRD). The excitation and emission spectra were recorded to elucidate the photoluminescence properties of NaCaTiNbO_6:Pr~(3+) and NaCaTiNbO_6:Pr~(3+),Bi~(3+). Furthermore,fluorescence lifetime measurements were performed. The excitation spectra of NaCaTiNbO_6:Pr~(3+) show a main band centered at around 357 nm.The luminescence spectra of NaCaTiNbO_6:Pr~(3+) exhibit a red emission peak at 615 nm from the ~1 D_2→~3 H_4 transition of Pr~(3+) ions. With the introduction of the Bi~(3+) ion into NaCaTiNbO_6:Pr~(3+), the luminescence intensity is enhanced nearly two times. Meanwhile,the absorption band edge of NaCaTiNbO_6:Pr~(3+) is shifted from 380 to 420 nm. Thus, this study shows that the red phosphor NaCaTiNbO_6:Pr~(3+) incorporated with Bi~(3+) is advantageous for light-emitting diode applications.     

Eu2+-doped Sr5(PO4)3Br blue-emitting phosphor with high color purity for near-UV-pumped white light-emitting diodes

Eu²⁺-doped bromophosphateapatite Sr₅(PO₄)₃Br phosphors were synthesized by the conventional high-temperature solid-state reaction. The crystal structure and luminescence properties of the phosphors, as well as their thermal stability and CIE chromaticity coordinates were systematically investigated. Photoluminescence spectra of Sr₅(PO₄)₃Br:Eu²⁺ exhibit a single blue emission at 450 nm under the excitation of 345 nm, which is ascribed to the 4f–5d transition of Eu²⁺. The phosphor shows very good thermal stability. The CIE color coordinates are very close to those of BaMgAl₁₀O₁₇:Eu²⁺ (BAM). All the properties indicate that the blue-emitting Sr₅(PO₄)₃Br:Eu²⁺ phosphor has potential application in white LEDs.     

Synthesis and characterization of Ca0.9Mg0.1TiO3:Pr3+,Ag+ phosphor

Ca_(0.9)Mg_(0.1)TiO_3:Pr~(3+),Ag~+ phosphors were synthesized by solid-state reaction technique. The crystalline phase and luminescence performances of Ca_(0.9)Mg_(0.1)TiO_3:Pr~(3+),Ag~+ were observed by X-ray powder diffractometer(XRD), transmission electron microscope(TEM), photoluminescence spectrometer and brightness meter, respectively. The addition of Ag~+ can diminish in the crystal particle sizes of Ca_(0.9)Mg_(0.1)TiO_3:Pr~(3+). Because Ag+ can reduce the concentration of the undesirable defects in the phosphor, luminescence intensity of Ca_(0.9)Mg_(0.1)TiO_3:Pr~(3+),Ag~+ is 2.3 times as high as that of Ca_(0.9)Mg_(0.1)TiO_3:Pr~(3+)at the same preparation condition. The effect of Ag+ on the persistent afterglow properties is to deepen the energy storage traps and enhance the energy transfer efficiency from Ca_(0.9)Mg_(0.1)TiO_3 to Pr~(3+). The persistent afterglow properties of Ca_(0.9)Mg_(0.1)TiO_3:Pr~(3+),Ag~+ are better than those of Ca_(0.9)Mg_(0.1)TiO_3:Pr~(3+) at the same preparation condition. In conclusion,Ca_(0.9)Mg_(0.1)TiO_3:Pr~(3+),Ag~+ phosphor with molar ratio of Ag~+to Pr~(3+) 3:1 obtained at 900 ℃ for 4 h exhibits the optimal photoluminescence performances.

Novel trivalent europium(Eu~(3+))-activated La_7 Ta_3 W_4 O_(30):xEu~(3+)(x=0.5 mol%-40 mol%) red-emitting phosphors were synthesized by means of a high-temperature solid-state reaction.The structure,morphology,photoluminescence,thermal-stability properties,lifetime,and color-rendering of the prepared phosphors were investigated in detail.The La_7 Ta_3 W_4 O_(30):Eu~(3+) phosphors show five emission peaks under near-ultraviolet(n-UV) at 397 nm,and these peaks are ascribed to the transitions of ~5 D_0-~7 F_j(j=0,1,2,3 and 4) by Eu~(3+) ions.The optimal doping concentration of Eu~(3+) is 20 mol%,and the critical distance of the energy transfer between the Eu3+ions was calculated to be 1.768 nm.The quenching temperature(T_(0.5)) of La_7 Ta_3 W_4 O_(30):20 mol%Eu~(3+) is about 440 K.The quantum yield(QY) was measured to be 85.85%.The fabricated white-light-emitting diodes(w-LEDs) possess high color-rendering index(R_a) of 90,and high correlated color temperature(CCT) of 5810 K,respectively.The Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage(CIE) coordinates are(0.311,0.322).Therefore,the prepared phosphor has a promising application for w-LEDs.

Novel yellow-emitting phosphors of Dy~(3+)-doped double perovskite Ca_2 MgTeO_6 were synthesized by using a conventional high-temperature solid-state reaction.The phase purity,particle morphology,size distribution,elemental composition,luminescence properties,and luminescence decay curves of the resulting products were then analyzed in detail.The Ca2 MgTeO_6:Dy~(3+),Na~+ phosphors show three emission peaks after near-ultraviolet excitation at 350 nm,which correspond to ~4 F_(9/2)→~6 H_(11/2),~4 F_(9/2)→~6 H_(13/2),and ~4 F_(9/2)→~6 H_(13/2) transitions,respectively.Among them,the strongest peak is observed at 573 nm.The best doping content of Dy~(3+)in Ca_2 MgTeO_6:xDy~(3+),xNa~+ phosphors is x=5 mol%.The calculated critical distance of energy transfer between Dy~(3+) ions is 1.6 nm.Luminescence quenching is confirmed to be due to dipole-dipole interactions among Dy~(3+) ions.The phosphors show excellent thermal stability with high activation energy(0.27 eV).The Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage(CIE) chromaticity coordinates of the Ca_2 MgTeO_6 Dy~(3+),Na~+ phosphors are located in the yellow region.White light-emitting diodes(w-LEDs) were fabricated with a high color rendering index(R_a) of 88 and a good correlated color temperature(CCT) of 5440 K.All observed properties indicate that Ca_2 MgTeO_6:Dy~(3+),Na~+ phosphors have potential applications in display and photonic devices.     

Tunable emission,energy transfer and thermal stability of Ce3+, Tb3+ co-doped Na2BaCa(PO4)2 phosphors

A series of single Ce³⁺ doped and Ce³⁺ and Tb³⁺ co-doped Na₂BaCa(PO₄)₂ (NBCP) phosphors was synthesized by conventional solid-stated reaction method. The crystal structure, luminescence properties, thermal stability and energy transfer were carefully investigated. Ce³⁺ is inferred to substitute the Ba²⁺ site in NBCP lattice. The color-tunable emission from blue to green is observed by adjusting Tb³⁺ concentration among NBCP:0.03Ce³⁺,yTb³⁺ phosphors. The energy transfer behavior from Ce³⁺ to Tb³⁺ ions is both illustrated by co-doped PL spectra and decay curves. The energy transfer efficiency is as high as 91.5%. The mechanism of energy transfer is resonance type of dipole-dipole transition. In this work, the optimal phosphor exhibits the excellent thermal stability which keeps at 94.9% of that initial value at room temperature when temperature reaches to 150 °C. The Ce³⁺ and Tb³⁺ co-doped NBCP phosphor is a promising candidate for the application in the general lighting and display fields.     

A NIR to NIR rechargeable long persistent luminescence phosphor Ca2Ga2GeO7:Yb3+,Tb3+

Near infrared to near infrared (NIR–NIR) photo-stimulated persistent luminescence (PSPL) has shown excellent potential in high-resolution bioimaging for deep tissues. However, the PSPL in NIR-Ⅱ region (900–1700 nm) is still lacking. In this work, Ca₂Ga₂GeO₇:Yb³⁺,Tb³⁺ (CGGYT) phosphor with unique low-dimensional crystal structure was synthesized by high-temperature solid–state reaction. Thanks to the carriers transferring from deep traps to shallow ones induced by low energy light, the 978 nm PSPL originating from ²F_5/2 to ²F_7/2 transition of Yb³⁺ induced by multimode stimulating (980 nm or WLED) is successfully realized after pre-excited by UV lamp. The NIR PSPL of the specimen can be repeatedly stimulated after placed in dark for 12 h. Moreover, the results indicate that codoping with Tb³⁺ can significantly enhance the NIR-II PSPL owing to the quantum cutting persistent energy transfer (QC PET) from Tb³⁺ to Yb³⁺. Our study points to a new direction for the future development of multimode PSPL materials for bioimaging or multimode optical storage applications.
