Advances in solid state white lighting technologies witness the explosive development of
phosphor materials (down-conversion luminescent materials). A large amount of evidence …

Trivalent Pr3+-doped oxynitirde red phosphors β-SiAlON with composition Si6–z Al z O z N8–
z: Pr x (z= 0–2.0, x= 0.016) were synthesized by gas pressure sintering (GPS) at 1950° C for …

We have synthesized Yb 2+-activated Si 6− z Al z O z N 8− z (0.05⩽ z⩽ 2.3, 0.03 mol%⩽ Yb
2+⩽ 0.7 mol%) green phosphors by solid-state reaction at 1900 C for 2 h under a nitrogen …

The host structure and composition of rare earth doped phosphors play important roles in
tuning luminescence properties. The energy of the 5d levels of Ce 3+ in nitrides has recently …

A series of novel Eu2+/Ce3+/Tb3+ ion doped La8Ca2 (Si4P2O22N2) O2-based apatite
structure oxynitride phosphors have been synthesized by a solid-state method. The phase …

By estimating the trap depth from the relative position of the zigzag curve of divalent
lanthanoid ions and conduction band bottom, the YSiO2N: Ce3+‐based blue persistent …

In this paper we report on the Ce 3+ and Tb 3+ ions co-doped bismuth phosphate (BiPO 4)
nanostructures that were synthesized by a simple precipitation method using different …

The monoclinic YSiO 2 N activated with Ce 3+ ions was synthesized, and its luminescence
spectra were investigated to reveal the energy level structure of the Ce 3+: 5d excited states …

A series of newly developed color‐tunable Ca 3 La 6 (SiO 4) 6: Ce 3+, Tb 3+ phosphors
were successfully prepared in this study. The crystal structures of the prepared phosphors …

New tuneable light-emitting Ca3Al8Si4O17N4: Ce3+/Tb3+/Eu2+ oxynitride phosphors with
high brightness have been prepared. When doped with trivalent cerium or divalent europium …
