M5(PO4)3F:Eu(2+) (M = Ca and Ba) co-doped with Ce(3+) phosphors were successfully prepared by the combustion synthesis method. The introduction of co-dopant (Ce(3+)) into the host enhanced the luminescent intensity of the M5(PO4)3F:Eu(2+) (M = Ca and Ba) efficiently. Previously, we have reported the synthesis and photoluminescence properties of same phosphors. The aim of this article is to report energy transfer mechanism between Ce(3+) ➔Eu(2+) ions in M5(PO4)3F:Eu(2+) (M = Ca and Ba) phosphors, where Ce(3+) ions act as sensitizers and Eu(2+) ions act as activators. The M5(PO4)3F:Eu(2+) (M = Ca and Ba) co-doped with Ce(3+) phosphor exhibits great potential for use in white ultraviolet (UV) light-emitting diode applications to serve as a single-phased phosphor that can be pumped with near-UV or UV light-emitting diodes.
通过燃烧合成法成功制备了共掺杂Ce(3+)的M5(PO4)3F:Eu(2+)(M = Ca和Ba)荧光粉。向基质中引入共掺杂剂(Ce(3+))有效地增强了M5(PO4)3F:Eu(2+)(M = Ca和Ba)的发光强度。此前,我们已经报道了相同荧光粉的合成及光致发光性质。本文的目的是报道M5(PO4)3F:Eu(2+)(M = Ca和Ba)荧光粉中Ce(3+)→Eu(2+)离子之间的能量转移机制,其中Ce(3+)离子作为敏化剂,Eu(2+)离子作为激活剂。共掺杂Ce(3+)的M5(PO4)3F:Eu(2+)(M = Ca和Ba)荧光粉在白色紫外(UV)发光二极管应用中具有巨大潜力,可作为一种能被近紫外或紫外发光二极管激发的单相荧光粉。
