Effect of Ca2+ Doping on Luminescence Properties of BaMgSiO4 ∶ Eu2+ Phosphor
-doped silicate based phosphors are very suitable for LEDs. These phosphors show broad emission colors which may vary from near UV to red light through 4f-5d transition of Eu
2+
activator and strongly depend on the host lattice
thus the emission wavelength is tunable by modifying the composition and structure of the hosts. This provides a possible way to fabricate color-tunable phosphors for LEDs.In this article

)
their luminescent properties and the influence of Ca
2+
content were investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and fluorescence spectrometer. The results showed that the emission of the phosphors turns from 498 to 450 nm
when the content of Ca
2+
increases in 0~0.05.The maximum emission and excitation intensity are reached when the content of Ca
2+
is equals to 0.075
and the shape of the excitation spectra also changes as increasing the content of Ca
2+
. The XRD curves show that the single phase limit of Ca
2+
in the phosphors is below 0.075.The results can be explained by Ca
2+
substitution for Ba
2+
in different lattice sites and the crystal field strength. As reported by Mingying Peng
et al
in the structure of BaMgSiO
4
there are three different barium sites Ba(1)
Ba(2) and Ba(3) with equal amounts in the lattice. The 498 nm emission band corresponds to the Eu
2+
emission on the Ba(1) and Ba(2) sites. And the two absorption bands at 360 and 400 nm in the excitation spectrum are assigned to the Eu
2+
centers on Ba(1) and Ba(2) sites
respectively. The Ba
2+
at the Ba(2) can be more easily substituted by Ca
2+
because of a longer average Ba-O distances . The strength of crystal field around the Eu
2+
ion on Ba(1) sites changes when Ca
2+
substitutes the Ba
2+
at Ba(2)
which leads to the change of excitation and emission spectra of the Eu
2+
ion on Ba(1) sites. Then
when the content of Ca
2+
is over 0.075
Ca
2+
at Ba(2) reaches saturation
and the CaMgSiO
4
phase occurs. This leads to impurity quenching. Ca
2+
substitution for Ba
2+
at Ba(1) also causes the change of the excitation spectrum.
