Abstract
A novel warm-white phosphor KSrPO4 co-doped with Dy3+ and Li+ ions was prepared by solid state reaction. A strategy of Li+ doping was used with the aim of enhancing the luminescence of 475nm and 570nm emission bands under NUV excitation. Compared to lithium-free KSrPO4:Dy3+, the intensities of the 570nm emission peaks were increased by 4.32 times and 2.84 times excited by 351nm and 388nm with 6mol% Li+ ions co-doping, respectively. The mechanism of the enhancement was discussed, that is due to the improvement of the phosphors’ crystallinity and charge compensation when the Li+ ions were introduced. Furthermore, the thermal stability of KSrPO4:0.01Dy3+, 0.06Li+ was measured and discussed, demonstrating it can be applied for high-powered LED. And the chromaticity coordinates of KSrPO4:0.01Dy3+, xLi+ can be tuned efficiently from the cold-white region to warm-white region with Li+ ions increasing, presenting its potential applied value as a new warm-white LED phosphor.
