微波场对(Ba,Sr)3MgSi2O8：Eu2+,Mn2+荧光粉中Mn2+ 660 nm红光能量传递的影响

研究了2.45 GHz微波灼烧(Ba,Sr)₃MgSi₂O₈：Eu²⁺,Mn²⁺荧光粉的非热效应对Mn²⁺离子660 nm红光发射强度的影响。在相同的加热温度条件下,增加微波场的输出功率,微波非热效应导致Eu²⁺离子蓝光的跃迁概率增加,Eu²⁺通过(Ba,Sr)₃MgSi₂O₈基质晶格把能量传递给Mn²⁺,进而使Mn²⁺的跃迁概率增加,导致红光发射增强。提出了一种微波场非热效应对能量传递影响的新观点,认为在微波加热过程中强微波磁场可能会对像Mn²⁺这样具有顺磁性的激活剂离子的能级结构和能量传递性质产生干扰作用。     

Microwave-promoted pure host phase for red emission CaS：Eu2＋ phosphor from single CaSO4 precursor and the photoluminescence property

We report a novel approach to obtaining a classical blue-green excitable CaS：Eu2＋ phosphor with desired red emission by microwave （MW） firing procedure in the absence of adding elemental sulphur. The disturbing effect of MW electro- magnetic field on decomposition of CaSO4 into CaS activated by europium is distinctly observed to give pure host phase without adding any elemental sulphur and carbon. The host phase evolution is observed to be highly dependent on the variation of applied MW power from X-ray diffraction （XRD） patterns and the corresponding photoluminescence （PL）, and a maximum PL intensity at 1100 W of MW power is acquired for the obtained purer host phase. The non-thermal and non-equilibrium effects by MW are revealed to correlate with the interaction between polar structure of the host and applied electromagnetic field. The results demonstrate an optional procedure to prepare this red-emitting phosphor in an effective, environment-friendly and scalable approach for phosphor production in the application of bio-illumination for plant cultivation and artificial photosynthesis.
