Abstract:
Red phosphors K
1−xAlSi
2O
6∶
xEu
3+ and K
0.93−xAlSi
2O
6∶(0.07Eu
3++
xLa
3+) (
x=0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07, 0.09, 0.11,mole fraction) were prepared by high temperature solid-state method. The effects of La
3+/Eu
3+ doping on luminescence intensity, fluorescence lifetime and color coordinate were studied. The results show that after Eu
3+ single doping or Eu
3++La
3+ co-doping,the red phosphors were all composed of a leucite phase, and no new phase was found. With the increase of Eu
3+ doping amount, the leucite phase changed from tetragonal structures to cubic structures. With the increase of Eu
3+ doping amount, the luminous intensity of KAlSi
2O
6 red phosphor increased first and then decreased, and the intensity was the highest when the mole fraction of Eu
3+ was 0.07. With the increase of La
3+ doping amount, the luminous intensity of K
0.93AlSi
2O
6∶0.07Eu
3+ red phosphor increased first and then decreased. When the mole fraction of La
3+ was 0.09, the intensity was the highest, which was more than twice as much as that without La
3+ doping. Compared with that of the single doping 0.07 mole fraction of Eu
3+, the fluorescence lifetime of KAlSi
2O
6 based red phosphor co-doped with 0.07 Eu
3+ and 0.09 La
3+ was longer. The color coordinate under co-doping Eu
3++La
3+ moved from orange of single doping Eu
3+ to red, and the red component was more obvious, showing excellent red emission performance.
