Abstract
Eu2+ doped M-thiogallate (MGa2S4, M: Zn, Ca, Sr) phosphors were prepared by solid-state reaction. The dependence of luminescent properties, photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence, on M2+ ions was investigated. ZnGa2S4: Eu2+, CaGa2S4: Eu2+, and SrGa2S4: Eu2+ exhibited a green emission band at 540 nm, 560 nm, and 535 nm, respectively. The red-shift between CaGa2S4: Eu2+ and SrGa2S4: Eu2+ was originated from the radius difference of Ca2+ and Sr2+ ions. However, it did not apply to ZnGa2S4 : Eu2+ despite of smaller radius of Zn2+ ion. The particle size of ZnGa2S4 : Eu2+ was much smaller than those of the other thiogallates, leading to extremely low CL emission.
