We report the cathodoluminescence and aging properties of a series of green phosphors of formula $Sr_{1-x}M_xGa_2S_4$:Eu (x = 0.0-1.0, M = Ba or Ca) that have potential applications in field emission displays (FEDs). The series of phosphors was synthesized via NaBr-aided solid-state reactions in a flowing $H_2S$ stream. A low level ($\sim$20%) of Ba or Ca substitution for Sr in $SrGa_2S_4$:Eu maintains the orthorhombic phase of pure $SrGa_2S_4$:Eu phosphors. Further, a low level ($\sim$20%) of Ba or Ca substitution for Sr in $SrGa_2S_4$:Eu provides various green colors and sufficient brightness for FED applications. Substitution of Ba or Ca for Sr in $SrGa_2S_4$:Eu also improved the stability of the phosphor when it was operated under electron-beam irradiation of 5 kV.

A series of Ca1-xSrxS:Eu (x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) phosphors were synthesized by solid-state reactions. The Ca1-xSrxS:Eu phosphors have a strong absorption at 455 nm, which corresponds to the emission wavelength of a blue LED. The emission peak of Ca1-xSrxS:Eu is blue shifted from 655 to 618 nm with increasing Sr content. The characteristics of Ca1-xSrxS:Eu phosphors make them suitable for use as wavelengthtunable red-emitting phosphors for three-band white LEDs pumped by a blue LED. In support of this, we fabricated a three-band white LED by coating SrGa2S4:Eu and Ca0.6Sr0.4S:Eu phosphors onto a blue LED chip, and characterized its optical properties.

$Ba_{1-x}M_xGa_2S_4:Eu^{2+}$ (M = Ca, Sr) phosphor was prepared for white light emitting diodes application. Photoluminescence (PL) emission and excitation bands were red-shifted with increase of Ca and Sr content due to the crystal field effect. Moreover, the PL intensity under 450 nm was increased by substitution of Ca and Sr.

형광체-변환 3파장 백색 발광 다이오드(LED)의 응용을 위하여 일련의 $CaS_{1-x}Se_x:Eu$ 형광체를 합성하였다. $CaS_{1-x}Se_x:Eu$의 구조와 발광 특성을 조사하였다. $CaS_{1-x}Se_x:Eu$ 형광체는 청색 발광 다이오드의 발광 파장인 455nm에서 강한 흡수가 있다. $Eu^{2+}$의 $4f^65d^1(T_{2g}){\rightarrow}4f^7(^8S_{7/2})$ 전이 때문에 CaS:Eu는 651nm에서 적색 발광 봉우리를 가지고 있다. $CaS_{1-x}Se_x:Eu$의 발광 봉우리는 Se이 증가함에 따라서 651nm에서 598nm으로 이동이 된다. $CaS_{1-x}Se_x:Eu$ 형광체는 청색 LED로 여기하면 가변 파장의 적색 발광을 하는 형광체로 사용될 수 있다. $SrGa_2S_4:Eu$와 $CaS_{0.50}Se_{0.50}:Eu$ 형광체를 청색 발광 다이오드에 도포하여 백색 발광 다이오드를 제작하였다.
