Abstract

A series of $Sr_{1-x}Ca_xGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$ phosphors have been synthesized by solid-state reaction. The photoluminescence and structural properties of $Sr_{1-x}Ca_xGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$ have been examined. The $Sr_{1-x}Ca_xGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$ phosphors have a strong absorption at 400 nm, which is the emission wavelength of a violet light emitting diode (LED). The emission peaks of $SrGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$are located at 448 nm and 485 nm. The partial replacement of Sr by Ca in $Sr_{1-x}Ca_xGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$ causes a red shift of emission wavelengths. The $Sr_{1-x}Ca_xGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$ can be used as blue emitting phosphors pumped by the violet LED for fabricating the multi-band white LED.

일련의 $Sr_{1-x}Ca_xGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$ 형광체를 고상법으로 합성하였다. $Sr_{1-x}Ca_xGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$의 구조와 발광 특성을 조사하였다. $Sr_{1-x}Ca_xGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$은 보라색 발광 다이오드의 발광 파장인 400 nm에서 강한 흡수가 있다. $SrGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$의 발광 봉우리는 448 nm와 485 nm에 있다. $Sr_{1-x}Ca_xGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$에서 Sr이 Ca으로 부분 치환되면 발광 파장이 장파장으로 이동된다. 다파장 백색 LED를 제작할 때 $Sr_{1-x}Ca_xGa_2S_4:Ce,Na$은 보라색 LED로 여기하여 청색 발광 형광체로 사용 될 수 있다.
