Abstract
Luminescence and luminescence excitation under VUV radiation of ABP 2 O 7 ( A = Na , K, Cs; B = Al , In) double phosphates are studied. Two emission bands peaking near 330 and 420 nm are common for investigated ABP 2 O 7 crystals. The band structure and partial densities of electronic states of perfect KAlP 2 O 7 , LiInP 2 O 7 and NaTiP 2 O 7 crystals are calculated by the full-potential linear-augmented-plane-wave (FLAPW) method. It is found that the structures of the conduction bands of ABP 2 O 7 crystals, which have different B cations, are appreciably different. Experimental results are compared with results of calculations of the electronic structure. Assumptions concerning the origin of luminescence in double phosphates are made.
