Abstract: | A novel red-emitting phosphor CaSrAl2SiO7:Eu3+ was firstly synthesized through the high temperature solid state reaction at 1300 °C. The structure, diffuse reflection spectra, photoluminescence spectra, color-coordinate parameters and quantum efficiencies (QE) of phosphors were investigated. The obtained CaSrAl2SiO7:Eu3+ phosphors have the same structure with that of the Ca2Al2SiO7 and Sr2Al2SiO7 phosphor, which have the melilite structure. Optical properties were studied as a function of Eu3+ concentration x, when x>0.14, the intensity of absorption of the f–f transitions of Eu3+ at 393 nm is stronger than that of the broad charge transfer transition band (CTB) around 254 nm, and which matches well with the output lights of NUV–LEDs, whereas, the concentration of Eu3+x≤0.14, the absorption of 393 nm is weaker than that of CTB. The underlying reason of Eu3+ concentration on their luminescent properties was investigated and discussed in detail. As a result, comparing with the commercial red phosphor Y2O2S:Eu3+, the CaSrAl2SiO7:xEu3+ (x>0.14) phosphor exhibited excellent color purity and much higher brightness and could be considered as promising red phosphors for NUV–LEDs. |
