Abstract

A series of Mg2+/Si4+ codoped Y3Al5O12:Ce3+ phosphors were synthesized by a sol-gel method. X-ray diffraction, scanning election microscope, energy dispersive spectroscopy and fluorescent spectrophotometer were used to characterize the synthesized phosphors. The influence of codoped Mg2+/Si4+ ions on luminescence of Y3Al5O12:Ce3+ was investigated. The X-ray diffraction, scanning election microscope and energy dispersive spectroscopy results indicate that Ce3+, Mg2+ and Si4+ substitute Y3+ site, Al13+ in the octahedral site and Al23+ in the tetrahedral site and the substitution has no obvious influence on the phase and microstructure. And the Mg2+/Si4+ substitution leads to the red shift of emission band and the decrease of emission intensity.
