Abstract
A series of Ca3Si2O4N2:Ce3+, Tb3+ phosphors were synthesized and their phase composition and luminescence properties were investigated. Results showed that an efficient energy transfer occurred between the Ce3+ and Tb3+ ions. The thermal stability of the Ce3+ emission was dramatically enhanced upon Tb3+ doping. The mechanism was attributed to a shift of the configuration coordinate and an increased energy barrier for thermal quenching, which resulted from the enhanced rigid structure of the host. Finally, a white light emitting diode lamp was fabricated, which exhibited excellent properties. These results indicate that Ca3Si2O4N2:Ce3+, Tb3+ can serve as promising blue-green emitting phosphors for w-LEDs.
