Abstract

Rare earth-doped glass is regarded as an excellent luminescent material and has been widely used in solid-state lighting. Here, the Tm3+/Dy3+ co-doped phosphate glasses revealed an increasing trend in density as the raising of Tm3+ contents, and the Urbach energies were 0.242∼0.374 eV based on transmission spectra. Under the 362 nm excitation, the white light with the chromaticity coordinates that were close to the value of standard white light was produced. The electric dipole-dipole interaction plays a major role in the energy transfer process from Tm3+ to Dy3+, and the glass exhibited a very high energy transfer efficiency of 64.44% according to the fluorescence spectra. Furthermore, the luminescent intensity of Tm3+/Dy3+ co-doped glasses at 150°C can still keep approximately 85.4% of its initial intensity and the glasses displayed excellent moisture-resistance (99.2%). Overall, the prepared Tm3+/Dy3+ co-doped glass exhibited potential applications in the field of W-LED and display devices.
