Abstract

SrAl 2O 4:Eu 2+ phosphor was prepared by a solid-state reaction in CO-reductive atmosphere. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the formation of SrAl 2O 4:Eu 2+. Field-emission scanning electron-microscopy (FE-SEM) observation indicated that the microstructure of the phosphor consisted of irregular fine grains with an average size of about 7–8 μm. Photoluminescence measurements showed that the phosphor can be efficiently excited by UV–visible light from 350 to 430 nm, and exhibited bright green emission peaked at about 516 nm. Bright green LEDs were fabricated by incorporating the phosphor with an InGaN-based UV chip. All the characteristics indicated that SrAl 2O 4:Eu 2+ is a good candidate phosphor applied in white LEDs.
