Their microstructures and morphologies are characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and transmission electronic microscope, and the results show that each of all the samples has a monophasic zircon-type structure. The absorption spectrum of the prepared phosphor shows a blue-shift of the fundamental absorption band edge with increasing the gadolinium content. Under UV-light and visible-light excitation, all the prepared phosphors show the typical luminescence properties of Eu3＋ in the zircon-type structure. The emission intensity of GdxBi0.95-xVO4：0.05Eu3＋ （x = 0.55） is strongest in all samples under UV-light and visible-light excitations. Finally, the mechanisms of luminescence of Eu3＋ in the GdxBi0.95-xVO4：0.05Eu3＋ （x = 0-0.95） solid solutions are analyzed and discussed.展开更多

The crystal structure, surface morphology and luminescence properties were investigated. It was found that the sintered samples crystallized in a tetragonal crystal system with space group I_(41)/amd(a = b = 0.7119 nm, c = 0.6290 nm). The products presented rod-like morphology with length of 100-150 nm and width of 50-100 nm. A maximum peak at 619 nm(~5D_0 →~7F_2) was observed in emission spectrum of the phosphors. It was also found that co-doping of Bi^(3+)+, P5+and Gd^(3+)ions into YVO_4:Eu^(3+)can not only made the right edge of the excitation band shift to the long-wavelength region, but also increased the emission intensity at 619 nm sharply and decreased the lifetime of fluorescence decay. These results may expand the application scope of the phosphors.展开更多

An absorption band centering at 450 nm is observed from the diffuse reflection spectra and the excitation spectra, indicating that the phosphor can match perfectly with the blue light of InGaN light-emitting diodes. A broad red emission band at 620 nm is found from the emission spectra, originating from the 4f^65d-4f^7 transition of the Eu^2＋ ions. The best doping content of Eu in this material is about 5%. S Sr2ScAlO5：Eu^2＋ is a highly promising red phosphor for use in white light-emitting diodes.展开更多

By tracing the formation process of the sol-gel, it is found that it is necessary to reduce the amount of NO3 by dropping ethanol into the solution for forming a stable and homogeneous sol-gel. Thermogravimetric and Differential Scanning Calorimeter Analysis, x-ray diffractionmeter, scanning electron microscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy are used to investigate the luminescent properties of the as-synthesised Sr3A1206：Eu2＋, Dy3＋. The results reveal that the Sr3Al2O6 crystallises completely when the combustion ash is sintered at 1250℃. The excitation and the emission spectra indicate that the excitation broadband lies mainly in a visible range and the phosphors emit a strong light at 618 nm under the excitation of 472 nm. The afterglow of （Sr0.94Eu0.03Dy0.03）3Al2O6 phosphors sintered at 1250℃ lasts for over 1000 s when the excited source is cut off.展开更多

Upon doping Pr3＋ into lattices of LSAF：Ce host, a shoulder emission peak is observed at about 620 nm, owing to the transition of 1D2 →3H4. Addition of Eu3＋ to LSAF：Ce3＋, Pr3＋ phosphor results in a sharp emission peaked at 675 nm for the 5D0 →TF3 transition and an increase of the intensity of red emission for Pr3＋ with increasing Eu3＋ concentration. The pathways of energy transfer among Ce3＋, Pr3＋, and Eu3＋ are proposed to be responsible for color addition of a red component to the primary yellow emission, enabling a potential adjustable color for blue excitable warm white.展开更多
