Samples with nominal compositions of $RuSr_2(Eu_{1.34-x}Tb_xCe_{0.66})Cu_2O_z$ (x = 0, 0.67) were prepared and their superconductivity and magnetic properties were compared to shed light on the effect of Tb substitution for Eu. X-ray diffraction measurements indicate that the Tb substitution resulted in a decrease in both a and c lattice parameters in consistent with ionic size difference between Eu and Tb. Contrary to the Tb-free sample, no superconducting transition behavior is observed in the Tb-sustituted sample. It is also found that the Tb substitution for Eu significantly increases the weak-ferromagnetic component of the field-cooled magnetic susceptibility as well as an increase in the magnetic ordering temperature. These results suggest that the magnetic state of the Ru sublattice is significantly affected by the Tb substitution for Eu.

최근에 백색 발광 소자와 조명 장치에 응용하기 위하여 희토류 이온이 도핑된 산화물 형광체의 제조에 많은 노력이 경주되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $Eu^{3+}$ 이온이 첨가된 $La_2MoO_6$ 형광체를 고상반응법을 사용하여 합성하였다. $La_2MoO_6:Eu^{3+}$ 형광체 분말 시료는 활성체 $Eu^{3+}$ 이온의 함량을 0, 0.01, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.2 mol로 변화시켜 볼밀과 건조 작업을 거쳐 $400^{\circ}C$에서 3시간 동안 하소 공정과 $1100^{\circ}C$에서 5시간 동안 소결 공정을 수행하여 합성하였다. 흡광 스펙트럼의 경우에, 양이온 $Eu^{3+}$와 음이온 $O^{2-}$ 사이의 전하 전달 밴드에 의해 250~370 nm 영역에 폭넓게 발생한 흡광 신호와 370~450 nm 파장 영역에 발생한 다수의 약한 $Eu^{3+}$ 이온의 흡광 스펙트럼으로 구성되었다. 발광 스펙트럼의 경우에, 파장 333 nm로 여기시켰을 때, 620 nm에서 최대 세기를 갖는 적색 발광 신호, 593 nm의 주황색 발광 스펙트럼과 704 nm의 적색 발광 스펙트럼이 관측되었다. 620 nm에서 관측된 적색 발광 신호의 세기는 활성체 이온 $Eu^{3+}$의 함량이 0.20 mol일 때 최대이었다.

$BaMg_2Al_16O_27:Eu,\SrGa_2S_4:Eu$, and ZnCdS:Ag,Cl phosphors were chosen to produce blue, green, and red emissions, respectively, under excitation from a violet light emitting diode (LED). A four-band white LED was obtained by a combination of nonabsorbed violet emission from a violet LED and blue, green, and red emissions from $BaMg_2Al_16O_27:Eu,\SrGa_2S_4:Eu$, and ZnCdS:Ag,Cl phosphors. The luminescent properties of the four-band white LED were also discussed.

Nano-sized phosphor powders were synthesized by the liquid phase method to confirm the size and morphology. By using the process, red phosphor particles with a size of 80 nm were obtained. The characteristic comparison of $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ and $YBO_3:Eu^{3+}$ was carried out and, as a result, $YBO_3:Eu^{3+}$ powders using boric salt showed an aggregated morphology and lower PL performance compared to $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$.

Blue phosphor of Ba-Mg-Al-O:Eu$^{2+}$ phase was fabricated by conventional firing techniques under reducing atmosphere and its photoluminescence properties are studied with varying Eu concentration and phost-annealing temperature under air atmosphere. This phosphors were well crystallized with particle size in the range of 3~5um and emitted a blue light at a dominent wavelength 450nm for 254nm UV irradiation. The concentration quenching wit Eu$^{2+}$ was that with increasing Eu concentration the energy transfer between the activator ions steadily improves, so that the excitation energy is transported over larger distances through the lattice before luminescence can occur. Thermal quenching also occurred in this phosphor means that in a host lattice with the $\beta$-alumina structure the bond of an Eu$^{2+}$ ion with the nearest-neighbour oxygen ion is much stronger than in a lattice with the magnetoplumbite structure.cture.

The effect of Cu substitution on the structural and superconducting properties of the $(Ru_{1-x}Cu_x)Sr_2(Eu_{1.34{\cdot}}Ce_{0.66})Cu_2O_z$ system with x = 0, 0.25 and 0.5 prepared under ambient pressure have been investigated. The X-ray diffraction patterns indicated that the Ru ions are replaced by the Cu ions. It is found that the Cu substitution for Ru significantly reduces the ferromagnetic component of field-cooled magnetic susceptibility, but results in a small change in diamagnetic onset transition temperature of zero-field-cooled magnetic susceptibility. In contrast to the Ru $Sr_2(Eu_{1.34{\cdot}}Ce_{0.66})Cu_2O_z$, bulk Meissner effect is observed in the field-cooled magnetization measurements of the Cu doped samples. The experimental results are discussed in connection with the spontaneous vortex phase interpretation.

MgAl2O4:Eu3+ red-light emitting powder phosphor was prepared at temperature as low as 500 oC within a few minutes by using the combustion route. The prepared powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectrometry. The luminescence of Eu3+-activated MgAl2O4 shows a strong red emission dominant peak around 611 nm, which can be attributed to the 5D0-7F2 transition of Eu3+ ions from the synthesized phosphor particles under excitation (394 nm). Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements at the X-band showed that no signal could be attributed to Eu2+ ions in MgAl2O4.

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

We uniformly coated Eu(III)- and Tb(III)-doped yttrium oxide onto the surface of $SiO_2$ spheres and then characterized them by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction crystallography and UV-Visible absorption. 2D and 3D photoluminescence image map profiles were reported for the core-shell type structure. Red emission peaks of Eu(III) were observed between 580 to 730 nm and assigned to $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_J$ (J = 0 - 4) transitions. The green emission peaks of Tb(III) between 450 and 650 nm were attributed to the $^5D_4{\rightarrow}^7F_J$ (J = 6, 5, 4, 3) transitions. For annealed samples, Eu(III) ions were embedded at a $C_2$ symmetry site in $Y_2O_3$, which was accompanied by an increase in luminescence intensity and redness, while Tb(III) was changed to Tb(IV), which resulted in no green emission.

$SrSnO_3$ phosphor powders were synthesized with two different contents of activator ions $Eu^{3+}$ and $Tb^{3+}$ using the solid-state reaction method. The structural, morphological, and optical properties of the phosphors were investigated using X-ray diffractometry, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, and fluorescence spectrophotometry, respectively. All the phosphors showed a cubic structure, irrespective of the type and the content ratio of activator ions. For $Eu^{3+}$-doped $SrSnO_3$ phosphors, the intensity of the 620 nm red emission spectrum resulting from the $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_2$ transition of $Eu^{3+}$ was stronger than that of the 595 nm orange emission signal due to the $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_1$ transition in the range 0.01-0.05 mol of $Eu^{3+}$, but the ratio of the intensity was reversed in the range 0.10-0.20 mol of $Eu^{3+}$. The variation in the emission intensity indicates that the site symmetry of the $Eu^{3+}$ ions around the host crystal was changed from non-inversion symmetry to inversion. For the $Tb^{3+}$-doped $SrSnO_3$ phosphors under excitation at 281 nm, one strong green emission band at 550 nm and several weak bands were observed. These results suggest that the optimum red and green emission signals can be realized when the activator ion content for $Eu^{3+}$- or $Tb^{3+}$-doped $SrSnO_3$ phosphors is 0.20 mol and 0.15 mol, respectively.
