    Abstract:
    Ce(3+)- and/or Mn(2+)-activated Y10(Si6O22N2)O2 phosphors have been prepared via a soft-chemical ammonolysis method. Structure refinement, scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared, and thermogravimetry analysis have been employed to characterize the phase purity, crystal structure, morphology, crystallization condition, chemical composition, and thermal stability of the products. The photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence properties for Ce(3+)- and Mn(2+)-doped Y10(Si6O22N2)O2 phosphors were studied in detail. For Ce(3+)/Mn(2+) singly doped Y10(Si6O22N2)O2 phosphors, typical emissions of Ce(3+) (blue) and Mn(2+) (reddish-orange) ions can be observed. Especially, Ce(3+) emission at different lattice sites 4f and 6h has been identified and discussed. Energy transfer from Ce(3+)(I) and Ce(3+)(II) to Mn(2+) ions in Y10(Si6O22N2)O2:Ce(3+),Mn(2+) samples has been validated and confirmed by the photoluminescence spectra and luminescence decay times. A color-tunable emission in Y10(Si6O22N2)O2:Ce(3+),Mn(2+) phosphors can be achieved by an energy-transfer process and a change in the doping concentration of the activators. The temperature-dependent photoluminescence properties and degradation property of cathodoluminescence under continuous electron bombardment of as-synthesized phosphors prove that the Y10(Si6O22N2)O2 host has good stability. Therefore, the Y10(Si6O22N2)O2:Ce(3+),Mn(2+) phosphors may potentially serve as single-phase blue/reddish-orange phosphors for white-light-emitting diodes and field-emission displays.
