Abstract
A series of Dy3+ ion activated Bi2SiO5 nanophosphors were synthesized by the hydrothermal and coprecipitation methods. Various structural and optical characterizations were made using X-ray diffraction, Scanning and Transmission electron microscopy, UV–Visible-Infrared absorption, Raman Spectroscopy, Photoluminescence, Time resolved luminescence techniques etc. Dy3+ ion doped samples yields characteristic bright yellow and blue emissions, on resonant excitation with 349nm and 386nm. The intensity ratio of the yellow/blue peaks was found to be function of Dy ion concentration and synthesis method. We have achieved white colour emission at 1.5mol% Dy concentration, CIE coordinate (0.36, 0.4) of which fall well within gamut of white light. The time-resolved fluorescence reveals decrease in radiative lifetime values with increasing Dy3+ ions concentration. A comparison between the samples synthesized by different methods, and Dy ion concentrations has been made and detail photo-physics involved is presented in the article.
