Abstract

Ce3+/Eu2+ co-doped Li2SrSiO4 phosphor yields two emission bands consisted of blue and yellow components, which shows great potential as single host white phosphor for white LEDs. Effective energy transfer occurs in Ce3+/Eu2+ co-doped Li2SrSiO4 due to large spectral overlap between the emission of Ce3+ and excitation of Eu2+. Co-doping of Ce3+ enhances the emission intensity of Eu2+ greatly by transferring its excitation energy to Eu2+. The Ce3+ → Eu2+ energy transfer, thoroughly investigated by their absorption, excitation and photoluminescence decay behaviors, is demonstrated to be in the mechanism of electric dipole–dipole interaction.
