Abstract

Eu2+ and Mn2+ singly doped and codoped Na(Sr,Ba)PO4 phosphors were synthesized, and their luminescent properties were investigated. A broad blue emission and a broad orange emission band were observed in Na(Sr,Ba)PO4:Eu2+, Mn2+ phosphor. The resonant-type energy transfer from Eu2+ to Mn2+ was demonstrated, and the energy transfer efficiency was also calculated according to their emission spectra. Based on the principle of energy transfer, the emission intensity ration of Eu2+ and Mn2+ could be appropriately tuned by adjusting the contents of activators. Due to the strong absorption in the 250–400 nm range, Na(Sr,Ba)PO4:Eu2+, Mn2+ phosphor could be used as a potential candidate for near-UV white light-emitting diodes (LEDs).
