Luminescence Properties of Sr5-x(PO4)2SiO4:xEu2+ Apatite Phosphors and Its Application in LED
were prepared by a high temperature solid-state reaction method in a reducing atmosphere. The crystal structure
excitation and emission spectra and morphology of the samples were characterized by XRD
PL and SEM methods
respectively. The effect of Eu
2+
doping concentration on the luminescence properties of Sr

Eu
2+
was also investigated. Two different luminescence centers were formed because Eu
2+
occupied two different crystallographic site in the crystal structure. Two emission bands located in blue and yellow light region were observed in a low concentration of Eu
2+
. Along with the increase of Eu
2+
doping concentration
the PL intensity of emission peak in yellow light region gradually increased because of the energy transfer between Eu
2+
ions
and reached the maximum value when
x
=0.075. Red shift of the emission peak may be due to the joint action of crystal field strength and the mechanism of energy transfer. The application of these phosphors to the white LED was also explored. It is found that the phosphors with double emission peaks are beneficial to the improvement of color rendering properties to the LED light sources.
