Abstract

Y3−yAl5−xGaxO12:Ce3+y phosphors were prepared by high temperature solid state reaction method. The crystal structures, the influence of Ga3+ concentration on the photoluminescence (PL), cathodoluminescence, thermal stability and morphology of the phosphors were studied in detail. The results indicated that diffraction angle of the samples decreased gradually with the increase of Ga3+ ions content in XRD pattern. The emission peak of the spectra show a progressive blue-shift, the intensity increased first and then decreased and the optimal Ga3+ concentration in Y2.94Al5−xGaxO12:Ce3+0.06 phosphors is x = 0.75. The critical concentration of Ce3+ in YAGG:Ce3+ phosphors is affected with the ratio of Ga3+ to Al3+ and the Y2.9Al4.25Ga0.75O12:Ce3+0.1 phosphor showed the best performance on PL. However, the optimum concentration of Y3−yAl5−xGaxO12:Ce3+y phosphors is x = 1.5 and y = 0.04 when they were excited by cathode ray.
