研究目的
Investigating the properties of high concentration Eu3+ doped Sr2CeO4 phosphors and determining the site occupancy of Eu3+ ions using the bond-energy method.
研究成果
High concentration Eu3+ doping in Sr2CeO4 leads to enhanced red emission due to energy transfer from Ce4+ to Eu3+, with Eu3+ preferentially occupying Ce sites as confirmed by bond-energy calculations, indicating potential for improved phosphor materials in LED applications.
研究不足
The study is limited to specific Eu3+ concentrations (up to 20%) and uses theoretical bond-energy methods that may have assumptions; further experimental validation or higher concentration studies could be beneficial.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses a traditional solid-state reaction method to synthesize Sr2Ce(1?x)Eu4?x/2 phosphors with varying Eu3+ concentrations (x = 0, 1%, 10%, 20%). Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy is employed to characterize the optical properties, and the bond-energy method is applied to analyze site occupancy.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Samples are synthesized from stoichiometric amounts of SrCO3 (A.R.), CeO2 (99.99%), and Eu2O3 (A.R.), heated at 1100°C for 6 hours in air.
