A novel white-bluish emitting phosphor of (Ba0.49Sr0.49)2-B2P2O10:0.02Eu2+ for white LEDs

Abstract:

A novel white-bluish emitting phosphor of (Ba_0.49Sr_0.49)₂B₂P₂O₁₀:0.02Eu²⁺ is synthesized by the solid state reaction. (Ba_0.49Sr_0.49)₂B₂P₂O₁₀:0.02Eu²⁺ can be effectively excited by 370 nm ultraviolet (UV) light, and exhibits two emission bands at 430 nm and 522 nm which are attributed to the d-f transitions of the Eu²⁺ ions in two different cation sites in the host lattices. And the chromaticity coordinate of (Ba_0.49Sr_0.49)₂B₂P₂O₁₀:0.02Eu²⁺ phosphor is (0.29, 0.25).
