Fabrication and Luminescence Properties of Ca2Gd8(SiO4)6O2:Er3+ Phosphors via Sol-Gel Process

Ca2RE8(SiO4)6O2 (RE=Y, Gd, La) is a kind of ternary rare-earth-metal silicate with the oxyapatite structure, which was used as host materials for the luminescence of various rare earth and mercury-like ions. Ca2Gd8(SiO4)6O2:Er3 phosphors were prepared through the sol-gel process. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and photoluminescence spectra were used to characterize the resulting phosphors. The results of XRD indicate that the phosphors crystallized completely at 1000 ℃. SEM study reveals that the average grain size is 400～1000 nm. In Ca2Gd8(SiO4)6O2:Er3 phosphors, the Er3 shows its characteristic green emission at 528 nm (2H11/2-4I15/2) and 548 nm(4S3/2-4I15/2) upon excitation into 382 nm, with an optimum doping concentration of 5% (mole fraction) of Gd3 in the host lattices.     

Luminescence and Energy Transfer Properties of Ca2Gd8(SiO4)6O2∶ A (A=Pb2+,Tm3+)Phosphors

Ca2Gd8(SiO4)6O2∶ A(A=Pb2 , Tm3 )phosphors were prepared through the sol-gel process. X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and photoluminescence spectra were used to characterize the resulting phosphors. The results of XRD indicate that the phosphors crystallized completely at 1000 ℃. SEM study reveals that the average grain size is 300～1000 nm. In Ca2Gd8(SiO4)6O2∶ Tm3 phosphors, the Tm3 shows its characteristic blue emission at 456 nm(1D2-3F4)upon excitation into its 3H6 - 1D2(361 nm), with an optimum doping concentration of 1mol% of Gd3 in the host lattices. In Ca2Gd8(SiO4)6O2∶ Pb2 , Tm3 phosphors, excitation into the Pb2 at 266 nm(1S0-3P1)yields the emissions of Gd3 at 311 nm(6P-8S)and Tm3 at 367 nm(1D2 -3H6)and 456 nm(1D2-3F4), indicating that energy transfer processes of Pb2 - Gd3 and Pb2 - Tm3 have occurred in the host lattices.     

Spherical YAG:Ce3+ Phosphor Particles Prepared by Spray Pyrolysis

Spherical YAG:Ce3 phosphor particles with narrow size distribution were prepared by spray pyrolysis. The effects of the concentration of solution, the flow rate of carrier gas and the annealing temperature on the phosphor morphology were studied. The productivity of precursor particles shows a trend of drop after rising with the increase of concentration. Raising the flow rate of nitrogen can improve the productivity of the precursor particles. Phosphor prepared by spray pyrolysis has obviously higher emission intensity than that synthesized by solid state reaction, spray pyrolysis makes Ce3 ions well distributed in the crystal lattice as the luminescent centers, and phosphor particles have regular sphericity and narrow size distribution.     

Luminescence Properties of Green-Emitting Phosphor (Ba1-x,Srx)2SiO4:Eu2+ for White LEDS

The (Ba1-xSrx)2SiO4∶Eu2 green-emitting phosphors were synthesized by conventional solid-state reaction in a CO-reductive atmosphere, and their luminescent properties were investigated. The XRD data show that the Ba/Sr ratio not only affects the lattice parameters, but also influences the emission peak. The excitation spectra indicate that this phosphor can be effectively excited by UV light from 370 to 470 nm. The emission band is due to the 4f65d1→4f7 transition of the Eu2 ion. With an increase in x, the emission band shifts to longer wavelength and the reason was discussed. The emission spectra exhibit a satisfactory green performance under different excitation wavelength(380, 398, 412, 420, 460 nm). (Ba1-xSrx)2SiO4∶Eu2 is a promising phosphor for green white-lighting-emission diode by ultraviolet chip.

The compound obtained is pure Ca8Mg(SiO4)4Cl2 phase with cubic structure. Its average particle size is 5 μm, and it has good dispersity and morphological form. The excitation spectrum of Ca8Mg(SiO4)4Cl2:Eu2 is a wide band, which covers from 270 to 480 nm. The emission spectrum is also a wide band peaked at 510 nm.

This spectrum range matches violet and blue LED chips very well, and its strong luminescence intensity is suitable for a green phosphor of tricolor phosphor of white light LED.     

Synthesis and Luminescence Properties of Red Phosphors:Mn2+ Doped MgSiO3 and Mg2SiO4 Prepared by Sol-Gel Method

Sol-gel method was utilized to synthesize two different series of red silicate phosphors:MgSiO3 and Mg2SiO4 powder samples doped with Mn2 , conducted the investigation of red long-lasting phosphor: MgSiO3:Eu2 , Dy3 , Mn2 . TGA curves of the gel precursor for two series depicted that the loss of residual organic groups and NO3 groups occurs below 450 ℃. According to the XRD patterns, the major diffraction peaks of the MgSiO3 and Mg2SiO4 series are consistent with a proto-enstatite structure (JCPDS No.11-0273) and a forsterite structure (JCPDS No.85-1364) respectively. With the excitation at 415 nm, the red emission band of Mn2 ions is peaked at 661 nm for MgSiO3:1%(atom fraction) Mn2 or 644 nm for Mg2SiO4:1%(atom fraction) Mn2 . Compared with Mg2SiO4:Mn2 samples, MgSiO3:Mn2 samples exhibit higher luminescence intensity and higher quenching concentration. In addition, the two series co-doped with Eu2 , Dy3 , Mn2 were also prepared. Photo-luminescence and afterglow properties of the two co-doped series were analyzed, which show that MgSiO3:Eu2 , Dy3 , Mn2 is more suitable for a red long-lasting phosphor.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Y0.9-x GdxEu0.1 BO3 Phosphors by Spray Drying Process

Y0.9-xGdxEu0. 1 BO3 phosphors were synthesized by spray drying (SD) method, and the results were compared with those by conventional solid state (SS) and citrate gel (CG) methods. The PL intensity of phosphors increases with the increase of x value in Y0.9-xGdxEu0.1BO3(prepared by SD) due to an energy migration process like Gd^3 - (Gd^3 )nEu^3 occurred in the material. Conlpared with the latter two methods, the phosphor particles prepared by spray drying method have a better morphology, such as homogeneous size (about 1 - 3μm) with spherical shape and smooth surface.Furthermore, the spray drying-derived phosphors have higher photoluminescence (PL) intensity than those by citrate gel method, but still a little lower than those by the solid state method.

The sample excited by ultraviolet visible light could emit bright green light.     

Luminescence Properties of Eu~(2 ) and Mn~(2 ) Co-Doped Ca_8Mg(SiO_4)_4Cl_2

The green phosphor for white LED, Ca8Mg(SiO4)4Cl2∶Eu2+, Mn2+, was synthesized by high temperature solid state reaction under reducing atmosphere.

The experimental results indicate that there is an effective energy transfer from Eu2+ to Mn2+in Ca8Mg(SiO4)4Cl2 host. This kind of energy transfer may be due to resonance transfer, and this energy transfer is limited.

SrAl2O4 :Eu2+, Dy3+ Long Afterglow Phosphors Prepared by Chemical Coprecipitation Method

SrAl2 O4: Eu2 , Dy3 long afterglow phosphors were prepared by chemical coprecipitation method. Ammonium carbonate and ammonium hydrogen carbonate were used as the precipitants. The preparation of the SrAl2 O4: Eu2 ,Dy3 precursor was completed at room temperature by controlling the concentration of the metal-salt solution, pH value of the system, etc. The phosphors were prepared by sintering the precursor at 1000 ～ 1200 ℃ in a weak reducing atmosphere for 2 h.

The phosphor which had good luminescent properties is prepared and its persistent time can reach more than 1600 min. In the coprecipitation process, a small amount of glucose operates to refe the luminescent powders. The particle size of the phosphor can be less than 1 μm. The sintering temperature of the sample prepared by the coprecipitation method is much lower than that of the one prepared by the high temperature solid state method.Compared with the high temperature solid state method, a clear blue shift occurs in the excitation and emission spectra of the samples.

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.
