Abstract
A series of Eu2+-doped ternary nitride phosphors, with a formula of (Sr1–xCax)2Si5N8: Eu2+, were synthesized by high-temperature solid-state method. The structure and luminescence properties were characterized, indicating the potential application as a red phosphor in the phosphor-converted white light-emitting diodes. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the Sr2Si5N8 and Ca2Si5N8 phases were generated at each end of (Sr1–xCax)2Si5N8: Eu2+ and coexisted in the range of 0.5≤x≤0.75. The emission spectra showed broad emission bands originating from the 4f65d1→4f7 transition of Eu2+ ions. The emission peak changed with the variations in Ca2+ concentration.
