Abstract

Abstract Tunable full color emissive LiSr3.99−xDy0.01(BO3)3:xEu3+ (0≤x≤0.09) phosphors peaked at 481 nm (blue), 574 nm (yellow), 592 nm (orange), and 617 nm (red) were synthesized in air by high temperature solid-state reaction route. The as-synthesized phosphors were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence excitation (PLE) and photoluminescence (PL) spectra. The PLE spectra in the range from 200 to 500 nm include an Eu–O charge transfer band (CTB) and several 4f–4f transition peaks of Dy3+ and Eu3+, indicating its potential application in white light emitting diodes (LEDs). The effect of Eu3+ concentration on the emission intensity of LiSr3.99−xDy0.01(BO3)3:xEu3+ phosphors was investigated in detail and the optical concentration is found to be x=0.005. The CIE chromaticity coordinates for LiSr3.99−xDy0.01(BO3)3:xEu3+ phosphors are simulated. With an increase in Eu3+ ion concentration, the chromaticity color coordinates can be tuned efficiently from the border of greenish white region to its equal-energy white light point, and eventually to red region. All the results imply that the studied LiSr3.99−xDy0.01(BO3)3:xEu3+ phosphors could be potentially used as white LEDs.
