Abstract
Multicolor-tunable materials have attracted extensive interest due to their unique advantages in applications of lighting and displays. In this paper, energy transfer from Ce3+ to Tb3+ occurred and the effective energy transfer efficiency (ηETE) of Ce3+-Tb3+ has been calculated to be as high as 36%. To obtain multicolor-tunable emissions, Eu3+ ions were successfully introduced into Ce3+–Tb3+ codoped Sr3La6(SiO4)6 samples. Furthermore, an energy transfer process from Ce3+ to Eu3+ ions has also been demonstrated by an energy transfer bridge of Tb3+. Meanwhile, we achieved the precise adjustment of purple, green, orange and red emissions of Sr3La6(SiO4)6: Ce3+, Tb3+, and Sr3La6(SiO4)6: Ce3+, Tb3+, Eu3+. In addition, Sr3La6(SiO4)6: Ce3+, Tb3+, Eu3+ phosphors exhibited a good thermal stability: their integrated emission intensities at 450 K still kept more than 90% of their initial intensity at room temperature. Therefore, these results might provide a novel multicolor-tunable phosphor for lighting and display application.
