Abstract
Novel CaSrLaSbO6: Mn4+ red-emitting phosphors with double perovskite structure were successfully synthesized by the high-temperature solid-phase method. CaSrLaSbO6:Mn4+ phosphor showed a broad excitation band with different excitation peaks from 250 nm to 600 nm owing to the Mn4+-O2- charge transfer and 4A2g → (4T1g, 2T2g, and 4T2g) transitions of Mn4+ ions and exhibited intense deep-red emission at 678 nm attributed to the 2Eg → 4A2g transition of Mn4+ ions. To further enhance the performance of the phosphor, a cation doping method was adopted in this paper to synthesize CaSrLa1-xLnxSbO6: Mn4+ (Ln = Gd, Y) phosphors. The luminescence intensity of the samples was enhanced after doping with different cations, and the related mechanism was discussed. In addition, the microstructure and crystal field environment were systematically investigated. The luminescence intensity of the CaSrLa0.85Y0.15SbO6: Mn4+ phosphor was about 1.82 times higher than that of CaSrLaSbO6: Mn4+phosphor. The emission spectrum of the sample matched well with the absorption band of plant pigments. Furthermore, the plant growth LEDs and light-conversion film were prepared by using the optimized CaSrLa0.85Y0.15SbO6: Mn4+. The results indicate that the designed phosphors have great potential applications in agricultural cultivation.
