Abstract: | The luminescence of Mn2+, Bi3+, Ce3+ and Tb3+ in GdMgB5O10 and some codoped materials is reported. Energy transfer rates are derived from the experiments. The Bi3+ → Gd3+ and Gd3+ → Bi3+ transfer rates are about equal at room temperature. The excitation energy is able to migrate among the Gd3+ sublattice. The Ce3+ ion is a good sensitizer for this sublattice. By diluting the Gd3+ sublattice with La3+ ions, the energy migration in Gd3+ zig-zag chains was blocked and interchain energy transfer occurred. Very efficient phosphors can be obtained by using Ce3+ as a sensitizer, the Gd3+ sublattice as an intermediary and Tb3+ as an activator. |
