$Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ is an excellent red-emitting phosphor, which has been widely used for display devices due to highly luminescent property and chemical stability. In this study, $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ red phosphors were prepared using the solid state reaction and RF thermal plasma synthesis. The particle size of $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ phosphors obtained by the solid state reaction varied from 10 to $20{\mu}m$, and 30~100 nanometer sized $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ particles were obtained from a liquid form of raw material through RF thermal plasma synthesis without an additional heat treatment. Photoluminescence measurements of the obtained $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ particles showed a red emission peak at 611 nm ($^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_2$). PL intensity of red nano phosphors prepared by RF thermal plasma synthesis was comparable to that of red phosphors prepared by the solid state reaction, indicating that nano-sized $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ red phosphors could be successfully synthesized using one-step process of RF thermal plasma.

We report a purely protein-based platform for green fluorescence by mixing silk protein with green fluorescence protein, and also report its enhancement by the incorporation of TiO₂ nanoparticles. The TiO₂ nanoparticles employed have diameters of 100 and 300 nm, with a significant increase in fluorescence (by a factor of 7.5) observed when introducing 300-nm TiO₂ nanoparticles. Furthermore, an increase in particle distribution density is found to enhance fluorescence amplification. These research findings suggest that protein-based fluorescent films can be enhanced by the characteristics of nanoparticles, opening up new possibilities in the fields of optics and fluorescence applications.

A non-rare earth-based strontium-aluminate red light emitting phosphor was synthesized by a solid-state reaction method and the effect of synthesis temperature and Mn⁴⁺ activator concentration on the photoluminescence characteristics of the phosphor was studied. The synthesized SrAl₂O₄:Mn⁴⁺ phosphor showed broad band absorption characteristics in the near-ultraviolet and blue regions with peaks at wavelengths of near 330 and 460 nm, and a triple band deep red emission consisted of three peaks at near 644, 658, and 673 nm. The SrAl₂O₄:Mn⁴⁺ phosphor synthesized at a temperature 1600℃ and a Mn⁴⁺ activator concentration of 0.5 mol% showed the strongest PL emission intensity, and concentration quenching was observed at concentrations higher than 0.7 mol%. FE-SEM and DLS particle size distribution analysis showed that the synthesized SrAl₂O₄:Mn⁴⁺ phosphor had a particle size distribution of 2~6.4 ㎛ and an irregular spherical shape with an average particle size of ~4 ㎛.

전색 디스플레이의 배경조명과 일반조명으로 응용 가능한 백색 유기발광소자를 제작하기 위해서는 삼원색을 혼합하는 방법과 단색광원의 색변환을 이용하는 방법등이 제안되었다. 삼원색을 혼합하는 방법의 연구가 접근방법 및 효율개선이 용이하기 때문에 많은 연구가 진행되어왔다. 그러나 색변환 방법을 사용하는 구조는 삼원색을 혼합하는 방법에 비해 공정이 단순하며 공정 가격이 낮아지고 안정적인 구조라는 장점이 있기에, 본 연구에서는 무기물 형광체를 청색유기발광 소자에 결합하여 제작된 백색 유기발광소자의 전기적 성질과 광학적 성질을 규명하는 연구를 진행하였다. 본 연구에서는 나노크기의 균일한 형광체를 제작 할 수 있는 졸겔 방법으로 적색 형광체를 제작하였다. 졸겔 방법으로 제작된 형광체에 대한 주사현미경 측정 결과 입자의 표면이 고르며 크기가 작고 균일 하였고, 높은 온도 열처리에 따라서 용매제가 대부분 제거되었기 때문에 형광체 발광 특성이 잘 일어났음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 제작된 형광체의 광학적 성질을 조사하기 위해 형광 루미네센스 측정을 하여 발광특성을 분석하였으며 실제 청색 유기발광소자에 적용하기 위해 tris((3,5-difluoro-4-cyanophenyl)pyridine)iridium (FCNIr)-doped 3,5-bis (N-carbazolyl) benzene (mCP)를 발광층으로 사용하는 진청색의 인광 유기발광소자 배면에 무기물 형광체를 결합하여 인가한 전압에 따른 전계발광분광특성의 변화를 조사하였다. 유기발광소자와 결합된 적색 무기물 형광체는 진청색 인광 유기발광소자에서 발광된 청색빛의 일부를 흡수하여 적색으로 색변환을 하였고 이는 무기물 형광체내에 첨가된 Mn 원자에 의해 색변환이 이루어졌음을 확인하였다. 무기물 형광체를 사용한 백색 유기발광소자의 색변환 메카니즘 및 효율 증진에 대한 연구는 고효율 유기발광소자 제작을 가능하게 할 것이다.

Nano-sized $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. The effect of polymeric precursor and lithium carbonate flux on the morphology and luminescence characteristics of nano-sized $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles was investigated. When using the spray solution containing both the polymeric precursor and the flux, the $Y_2O_3:Eu$ particles with spherical shape and micron size were turned into nano-sized $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles during the post-treatment at high temperature. The mean size of $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles was affected by the contents of polymeric precursors and lithium carbonate flux, and preparation temperature. The as-prepared particles by spray pyrolysis at high temperature from solution containing high contents of polymeric precursors had good photoluminescence intensity under vacuum ultraviolet after post-treatment above $1,000^{\circ}C$. The prepared nano-sized $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles had comparable photoluminescence intensity under vacuum ultraviolet light with that of the commercial $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles prepared by solid state reaction method.

Rare earth based calcium aluminate phosphor ($CaAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+}$, $Nd^{3+}$) supported $TiO_2$ nanoparticles are synthesized by using sol-gel method, which are further characterized using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), diffuse reflectance UV-Visible spectroscopy (DRS UV-Vis) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD pattern of as-prepared and sintered phosphor supported $TiO_2$ does not show the tendency to change the crystal structure from anatase to rutile phase up to $600^{\circ}C$. This indicates that the phosphor support might inhibit the densification and crystallite growth by providing dissimilar boundaries. The diffuse reflectance spectral (DRS) measurements showed shift towards longer wavelength indicating reduction in the band-gap energy as compared to free $TiO_2$. The FT-IR spectra of phosphor supported $TiO_2$ nanoparticles show shift in the peak positions to lower wavelengths. This indicates that the $TiO_2$ nanoparticles are not free, but covalently bonded to the phosphor support. TEM micrographs show presence of crystalline and spherical $TiO_2$ nanoparticles (8 - 15 nm diameter) dispersed uniformly on the surface of phosphor.
