Abstract
This article systematically investigates the preparation, structure, and luminescent properties of a novel Eu3+-based germanate phosphor: NaInGe2O6 (NIGO): Eu3+. NIGO: Eu3+ exhibits strong absorption in the near ultraviolet (NUV) and blue region, which enables it to be effectively excited by the blue LED chip. Under 465 nm excitation, NIGO: Eu3+ exhibits a red emission peak at 610 nm, reaching 82.60 % and 68.6 % of the emission intensity of Y3Al5O12 (YAG): Ce3+ and K2TiF6:Mn4+. NIGO: Eu3+ also has good thermal stability, retaining 76.23 % even at 150 °C. Furthermore, combining NIGO: Eu3+ with commercial YAG: Ce3+ phosphors significantly enhances the luminescent performance of blue-chip-excited white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs), including improvements in color rendering index (CRI) and correlated color temperature (CCT). This work indicates that NIGO: Eu3+ phosphors possess promising potential for WLED applications.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of the Journal of Luminescence is to provide a means of communication between scientists in different disciplines who share a common interest in the electronic excited states of molecular, ionic and covalent systems, whether crystalline, amorphous, or liquid.
We invite original papers and reviews on such subjects as: exciton and polariton dynamics, dynamics of localized excited states, energy and charge transport in ordered and disordered systems, radiative and non-radiative recombination, relaxation processes, vibronic interactions in electronic excited states, photochemistry in condensed systems, excited state resonance, double resonance, spin dynamics, selective excitation spectroscopy, hole burning, coherent processes in excited states, (e.g. coherent optical transients, photon echoes, transient gratings), multiphoton processes, optical bistability, photochromism, and new techniques for the study of excited states. This list is not intended to be exhaustive. Papers in the traditional areas of optical spectroscopy (absorption, MCD, luminescence, Raman scattering) are welcome. Papers on applications (phosphors, scintillators, electro- and cathodo-luminescence, radiography, bioimaging, solar energy, energy conversion, etc.) are also welcome if they present results of scientific, rather than only technological interest. However, papers containing purely theoretical results, not related to phenomena in the excited states, as well as papers using luminescence spectroscopy to perform routine analytical chemistry or biochemistry procedures, are outside the scope of the journal. Some exceptions will be possible at the discretion of the editors.
