Abstract:

A single-phased Ca9Y(PO4)7: Dy3+,Eu3+ white-light-emitting phosphors were synthesized by solid-state reaction. X-ray diffractometer and fluorescence spectrophotometer were used to character their structures and photoluminescence properties. XRD results exhibit that Ca9Y(PO4)7: Dy3+,Eu3+ phosphors belong to rhombohedra structure, Dy3+ and Eu3+ in the host of Ca9Y(PO4)7 replace the site of Y3+. The emission and excitation spectra show that Dy3+ and Eu3+ can be effectively excited by UV light. The luminescence intensities and chromaticity coordinates can be modified by controlling the concentration and the ratio of doping agent Dy3+ and Eu3+, and all samples’ chromaticity coordinates are located in white light area. Therefore, the as-fabricated single-phased Ca9Y(PO4)7: Dy3+, Eu3+ have potential applications in the field of white light emitting diodes(LEDs).
