Abstract
The Na3LuSi2O7:Ce3+ and Na3LuSi2O7:Ce3+, Tb3+ phosphors were synthesized under a weak reducing atmosphere by the traditional high temperature solid state reaction method. The synthesized phosphors were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Photoluminescence (PL) emission and excitation spectra. The effects of Ce3+ singly doped and Ce3+/Tb3+ codoped concentrations on the structure, luminescence properties and energy transfer of Na3LuSi2O7 phosphors were studied in detail. The results indicated that the energy transfers between Ce3+ and Tb3+ in the host occurred mainly via a dipole-quadrupole mechanism, and the critical distances of the ion pairs (Rc) were calculated by the quenching concentration method and spectral overlap method. Based on the good PL properties adjusting the doping concentration of the activators (Ce3+,Tb3+) might be promising as a host material for solid-state lighting and display fields.
