PAA-assisted synthesis of color-tunable Zn2SiO4:Mn2+ phosphors
摘要
Color-tunable Zn2SiO4:Mn2+ phosphors were synthesized by solvothermal method with the assistance of polyacrylic acid (PAA). The structure, morphology and photoluminescence properties of phosphors were characterised by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The results show that the PAA-assisted synthesis has no effect on the structure and morphology, but creates a new characteristic peak at 610 nm in the emission spectrum. Based on the luminescent properties of the prepared phosphors, their applications in light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and potential fingerprint identification were further explored. The results indicated that the color-tunable Zn2SiO4:Mn2+ phosphors could be applied to LEDs and fingerprint identification.
