Abstract

The serials of blue phosphors, CaAl2Si2O8: Eu2+ doped with different content Sr2+ and Mg2+ ions, were prepared by solid-state reaction at high temperature. And their structure and photo-luminescent properties were investigated. In Ca0.96-ySryAl2Si2O8: 0.04Eu2+ (y = 0.10, 0.30, 0.50, 0.70, 0.90) system, for y ≦ 0.03, all the compositions crystallize in triclinic structure of CaAl2Si2O8, and on further increase of y, the system undergoes a compositionally induced phase transition from triclinic to monoclinic structure. For Ca0.96-yMgyAl2Si2O8: 0.04Eu2+ (y = 0.10, 0.30, 0.50, 0.70, 0.90) system, for z ≦ 0.03, all the compositions are of triclinic structure of CaAl2Si2O8. With the further increase of z, other phase appears. The emission spectra of these phosphors show blue shift with the introduction of Sr2+ ions, and red shift with Mg2+ ions. The reason may be due to the difference ionic radii of Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+. These phosphors show excellent blue emission and broad excitation band in near-UV (ultraviolet) range. They may be potential phosphors for near-UV light-emitting diodes (LEDs).
