摘要

A series of singly doped Er3+ and Tb3+ ions are used to generate green emission from the Na5Y(MoO4)4 host matrix. These phosphors were prepared using the solid-state reaction (SSR) route. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results confirm the Scheelite-type tetragonal structure with a I41/a space group. Photoluminescence (PL) behavior in the visible region has been studied. Host excitation at 292 nm is also observed in this phosphor owing to the charge transfer band (CTB). Under 292 nm and 377 nm excitation, the highly intense emission for Er3+ doped Na5Y(MoO4)4 was obtained at 554 nm (4S3/2 → 4I15/2). For Tb3+ ions, dominant emission was obtained at 545 nm (5D4 → 7F5) for the excitation of 292 nm and 487 nm. Generally, these rare earth ions are extracted from mineral ores including monazite from mining. CIE coordinates are noticed in the range of 0.246 to 0.73 and correlated color temperature (CCT) and color purity (CP) values are also obtained for quenched concentrations of Er3+ and Tb3+ ions. CIE coordinates, CCT, and CP values confirm this phosphor as a cool green-emitting phosphor with maximum color purity near 90% in optimum concentrations of sample. Luminescence lifetime measurements were also performed for 4S3/2 → 4I15/2 transition causing emission at 554 nm. From this study, the synthesized phosphors can be considered as a viable material for green-emitting LEDs, white light-emitting diodes (wLEDs), and other optoelectronic devices.
