Abstract:
Blue emitting phosphor SrZn2(PO4)2:Eu2+ is synthesized by a high temperature solid state method, and the luminescent properties are investigated. At the 330 nm radiation excitation, SrZn2(PO4)2:Eu2+ presents an emission band at 416 nm, which is assigned to the 4f65d1→4f7 transition of Eu2+ ion. The concentration quenching effect of Eu2+ in SrZn2(PO4)2 has been validated and proved to be a resonant type via a dipole-dipole interaction. The critical distance (Rc) of Eu2+ in SrZn2(PO4)2 is calculated to be 3.244 nm. The Commission International de I’Eclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates of SrZn2(PO4)2:Eu2+ locate at the blue region, such as (0.150, 0.072). The results indicate that the SrZn2(PO4)2:Eu2+ phosphor may have potential applications in white light emitting diodes (LEDs).
