Abstract: | Calcium magnesium chlorosilicate doped by europium, Ca8Mg(SiO4)4Cl2:Eu2 , was prepared by the solid state reaction at high temperature. 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. The luminescent intensity reaches to the maximum when the concentration of Eu2 is 2%. The wavelength of emission and excitation of the phosphor with various Eu2 contents keeps constant. 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. |
