  • Title: Luminescence properties and energy transfer of Eu/Mn-coactivated Mg2Al4Si5O18 as a potential phosphor for white-light LEDs.

    Journal: Inorg Chem; 2014 Nov 03; 53(21):11396-403. PubMed ID: 25325837.
    Abstract:
    A series of blue-to-white emitting Mg2Al4Si5O18: Eu(2+), Mn(2+) phosphors were synthesized via high-temperature solid-state method, and their luminescence properties were investigated in detail. Under near-ultraviolet (UV) light excitation of 365 nm, Eu(2+)-doped Mg2Al4Si5O18 exhibits a broad blue emission band peaked at 469 nm, and Mn(2+)-doped Mg2Al4Si5O18 shows a broad orange-red emission band near 600 nm. The energy transfer from Eu(2+) to Mn(2+) in Mg2Al4Si5O18 host matrix can be found, and the resonant type is demonstrated by a dipole-quadrupole mechanism. The emission hue can be tuned from blue (0.17, 0.17) to bluish green (0.22, 0.29) and finally to white (0.31, 0.33) by properly varying the ratio of Eu(2+)/Mn(2+). The thermal quenching property of the sample was investigated, and the activation energy ΔE was estimated to be 0.30 eV. Additionally, the energy transfer critical distance between Eu(2+) and Mn(2+) was calculated. With appropriate tuning of activator content, the Mg2Al4Si5O18: Eu(2+), Mn(2+) phosphor may have potential application for UV light-emitting diodes.
