Abstract

Oxygen-assisted high temperature solid-state reaction approach was employed for the fabrication of Pr activated Ba(Mg0.28Zr0.16Ta0.56)O3 transparent ceramic phosphor. Retiveld refinement of X-ray diffraction pattern was carried out to reveal the lattice parameters and crystal structural information. Under the blue-light excitation of λex = 473 nm, the phosphor exhibits a sharp intense red emission centered at 645 nm, accompanied by several other weak peaks. PL evolution with temperature shows a significant luminescence quenching behavior, and the underlying multi-phonon interaction with optical center is revealed by proposing an unprecedent theoretical calculation work. Such a phonon effect is further confirmed from the red-shift of peak position with temperature, and the involved phonon energy of 50.7 meV is determined from Raman scattering measurement. More interestingly, the fitted results of transient-state PL spectra show a fluctuation of luminescence lifetime at various temperatures, further indicating a significant effect of phonon vibration in the system.
