[ $SrTiO_3:Al,Pr$ ] red phosphors doped with Y and Er were synthesized by solid state reaction method. The luminescence properties of $SrTiO_3:Al,Pr$ phosphors before and after doping were examined by photoluminescence. Efforts were paid to elucidate the cause of the increase of green luminescence in $(Sr_{0.95}Y_{0.05})TiO_3:Pr,Er\;and\;(Sr_{0.95}Y_{0.05})TiO_3:Pr,Al$ phosphors. The enhanced green luminescence was interpreted by the energy transfer between $Er^{3+}\;and\;Pr^{3+}$ ions, and the change of bandgap in the $(Sr_{0.95}Y_{0.05})TiO_3:Pr$ phosphors.

[ $Sr_xCa_{(1-x)}TiO_3$ ] red phosphors doped with Pr(0.13 mol%) and Al(0.23 mol%) were synthesized by solid state reaction method. Change of crystal structure occurred in $Sr_xCa_{(1-x)}TiO_3:Pr,Al$ phosphors with increasing value of x. Green and red luminescence were observed from $SrTiO_3:Pr,Al$ phosphors at low temperature. However, only red luminescence in the case of $CaTiO_3:Pr,Al$ phosphors was measured at low temperature. The main cause of green luminescence was explained by the bandgap reduction.

Photoluminescenc (PL) and low-voltage cathodoluminescence (CL) characteristics of $[xSrTiO_3+(1-x)Li_2TiO_3]:Pr^{3+}$ and $[xSrTiO_3+(1-x)Na_2TiO_3]:Pr^{3+}$ systems were investigated. The red luminescence intensities of these compounds are enhanced remarkably by the incorporation of $Li^+$ or $Na^+$ ion as compared to that of $SrTiO_3:Pr^{3+}$. The enhanced luminescence is speculated to result from both the charge compensation of $Pr^{3+}$ site and oxygen vacancies generated in the lattices by $Li^+$ or $Na^+$ ion.

$Sr_xBa_{(1-x)}TiO_3$ red phosphors doped with Pr(0.13 mol%) and Al(O.23 mol%) were synthesized by solid state reaction method. Orthorhombic perovskite structure with increasing value of x in $Sr_xBa_{(1-x)}TiO_3$:Pr,Al phosphors changed to cubic perovskite structure. Emission bands at 615 nm and 492 nm in $Sr_{0.25}Ba_{0.75}TiO_3$:Pr,Al and $BaTiO_3$:Pr,Al phosphors were observed at room temperature. The main cause of green luminescence at 492 nm was explained by the change of the 4f5d band.

The luminescence properties of $Sr_{1-x}Ba_xTiO_3:Pr$, Al red phosphor for Field Emission Displays (FEDs) have been investigated in powders prepared though solid-state reactions. $Sr_{1-x}Ba_xTiO_3:Pr$, Al red phosphors indicate a higher luminescent intensity, and have been found to have potential for field emission displays. The addition of Ba increased the luminescence intensity at 617 nm by up to 30%. Ba ions are effective in producing the energy transfers from host-to-activator in 4f-5d transitions.

In this article, the effect of the crystal structural environment of $Pr^{3+}$ ions on the photoluminescence (PL) characteristics of double tungstates, such as $A(M_{1-X}Pr_X)W_2O_8$ (A=Li, Cs, M = In, Y, Sc, La; $0.007{\leq}x{\leq}0.1$) and $La_{1.96}Pr_{0.04}W_3O_{12}$ are characterized. By varying the ion radius in A and M sites, the structural environment of $Pr^{3+}$ ions were modified. The structural criteria, that is, the point charge electrostatic potentials V around the $Pr^{3+}$ activator, were calculated using the crystal structural parameters. The point charge potential V can be a valid criterion for $^3P_o$ quenching in various double tungstates. When the calculated V values are large (> 6.0), the luminescence from the $^3P_0$ level becomes dominant. When the calculated V values are about 3.8, the $^1D_2$ line appears weakly but $^3P_0$-level luminescence is absent. When the calculated V values are small (< 2.0), the luminescence from the $^1D_2$ level becomes dominant and $^3P_0$-level luminescence is absent. At 2.0$^3P_o$ quenching to $^1D_2$ level occurs substantially in accordance with the structural criterion of the point charge potential model.

In this present study, the luminescence characteristics and mechanism of energy $CaTiO_3$:Pr phosphor were studied using disk specimens sintered at various temperatures and envirenment. A single-phase $CaTiO_3$:Pr was synthesized by sintering above 140$0^{\circ}C$ and its crystal structure was found to be perovskite orthorhombic. A dominant peak around 360 nm and a broad peak around 395 nm were observed in the PLE(Photoluminescence Excitation) spectrum of $CaTiO_3$:Pr with fixed emission wavelength at 612 nm, the decay time of 360 nm excitation was found to be longer than that of 395 nm excitation. From this result, it is assumed that the free carrier excited to 360 nm is transferred to 395 nm energy level. Therefore, the decrease in 395 nm intensity observed in CaTiO$_3$:Pr specimens sintered in Ar gas environment induced shorter decay time and improved CL luminescence.

In the present study, the luminescence characteristics and the effect of conductivity on cathodoluminescene of CaTiO$_3$:Pr was studied using dick specimens sintered at various temperatures and atmosphere. As a sintering temperature was increased from 1100 to 1400 $^{\circ}C$, conductivity of CaTiO$_3$:Pr phosphor was improved and CL brightness was also increased about four times and decay times was reduced from 0.29 to 0.21 msec. And all samples prepared in Ar showed high conductivity, CL brightness and short decay time in comparison with those sintered in air.

Sr$_{(1-x)}$Ca$_{x}$TiO$_3$: Pr$^{3+}$ , Ga$^{3+}$ (0$\leq$x$\leq$1) 형광체의 여기 및 발광 스펙트럼과 분광 반사율을 조사하여 발광 메커니즘을 규명하고자 하였다. 발광 스펙트럼에서는 611~614nm 사이에서 peak을 가지는 하나의 적색 발광 밴드가 관찰되었으며, 조성에 따라 발광밴드의 모양이 달랐다. 이는 조성에 따른 모체의 결정 구조 변화 때문으로 생각된다. 여기 스펙트럼 끝단과 분광 반사율 스펙트럼의 흡수단은 서로 일치하였으며, 이 결과로부터 모체에 흡수된 에너지가 Pr$^{3+}$ 에 전달되어 적색광을 방출하는 것이 주된 메커니즘으로 생각된다. 한편 120$0^{\circ}C$에서 4시간동안 열처리하여 합성한 Sr$_{0.4}$Ca$_{0.6}$TiO$_3$:(0.1 mol%)Pr$^{3+}$ , (0.2 mol%)Ga$^{3+}$ 는 우수한 색순도와 휘도를 나타내었다.다.

Ca_1-xZrO₃:xPr phosphor with perovskite structure was successfully synthesized by using skull melting method. The crystal structure, morphology and optical properties of synthesized phosphor were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), ultraviolet fluorescence reaction and photoluminescence. The XRD results indicated that single crystals of CaZrO₃:Pr³⁺ belongs to orthorhombic perovskite system. The synthesized phosphor could be excited by UV light (254 nm) and the emission spectra results indicated that green luminescence of CaZrO₃:Pr³⁺ due to charge transfer transition ³P₀ → ³H₄, ³P₁ → ³H₅ and ³P₀ → ³H₅ at 506, 536 and 548 nm was dominant.
