연소합성법에 의한 $SnO_{2}:Eu^{3+}$ 오렌지색 형광체의 제조

Preparation of orange-emitting $SnO_{2}:Eu^{3+}$ phosphors by combustion synthesis

A novel ceramic synthesis technique, combustion synthesis, is explored to produce a orange-emitting $SnO_{2}:Eu^{3+}$ phosphors. This technique involves a reaction of metal salts with a citric acid as an organic fuel. The variation of the ratio of citric acid to metal introduces change in reaction temperature and atmosphere of the combustion reaction, which in turn influences crystallinity and luminescence properties of the final products seriously. And, the heat treatment of the as-synthesized product increases its luminescence intensity. Especially, the samples treated at above $1100^{\circ}C$ show a orange-emission peak, which is attributed to the formation of single phase and well-crystallized $SnO_{2}:Eu$ oxides in the rutile structure
