Abstract: | Efficiency of sol-gel derived Y3−xAl5O12:Cex3+ (YAG:Ce) and Y3−xMg2AlSi2O12:Cex3+ (YMASG:Ce) phosphors, which are prospective for application in white light emitting diodes (LED), is studied. Sets of samples containing different cerium amount x from 0.015 to 0.06 and sintered at different temperatures (1400-1550 °C) were investigated. Importance of absorption peculiarities in agglomerates of phosphor nanocrystals is demonstrated by studying the excitation wavelength dependence of quantum efficiency and by applying PL measurements in confocal mode. Emission saturation is demonstrated to occur at higher excitation intensities than those typical for operating white LEDs. |
