Abstract: | Recent data on cascade transitions in the 4f shell of the Pr3+ ion in various matrices are analyzed. Spectral and kinetic characteristics of LaF3-LiF:Pr and SrAl12O19:Pr phosphors, which show photon cascade emission, were investigated. The emission intensities in the first (1 S→1 I 6 transitions) and the second (transitions from the 3 P 0 level to the 3 H and 3 F multiplets) cascade stages were measured and the temperature dependences of the intensities of the main emission lines and their kinetic characteristics were determined. The following parameters of SrAl12O19:Pr were found: the band gap width (7.5 eV), the energy gap between the 1 S 0, 4f and 5d levels (0.24 eV), and the characteristics of the 4f→5d band (6.0–7.5 eV) of the Pr3+ luminescence excitation. It is shown that the LaF3-LiF:Pr compound has a number of specific features in comparison with other Pr3+-doped phosphors. |
