The luminescence intensity of calcium sulfide codoped with $Eu^{2+},\;Si^{4+}\;and\;Ga^{3+}$ was investigated as a function of the dopant concentration. An enhancement of the red luminescence resulted from the incorporation of $Si^{4+}\;and\;Ga^{3+}\;into\;CaS:Eu^{2+}.\;The\;non-codoped\;CaS:Eu^{2+}$ converted only 3.0% of the absorbed blue light into luminescence. As the $Si^{4+}\;and\;Ga^{3+}$ were embedded into the host lattice, the luminescence intensity increased and reached a maximum of Q = 10.0% at optimized concentrations of the codopants in CaS. Optimized CaS:$Eu^{2+},Si^{4+},Ga^{3+}$ phosphors were fabricated with blue GaN LED and the chromaticity index of the phosphor-formulated GaN LED was investigated as a function of the wt% of the optimized phosphor.

Red phosphors $Ca_{1-1.5x}WO_4:{Eu_x}^{3+}$ were synthesized with different concentrations of $Eu^{3+}$ ions by using a solid-state reaction method. The crystal structure of the red phosphors was found to be a tetragonal system. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results showed the (112) main diffraction peak centered at $2{\theta}=28.71^{\circ}$, and the size of crystalline particles exhibited an overall decreasing tendency according to the concentration of $Eu^{3+}$ ions. The excitation spectra of all the phosphors were composed of a broad band centered at 275 nm in the range of 230-310 nm due to $O^{2-}{\rightarrow}W^{6+}$ and a narrow band having a peak at 307 nm caused by $O^{2-}{\rightarrow}Eu^{3+}$. Also, the excitation spectrum presents several strong lines in the range of 305-420 nm, which are assigned to the 4f-4f transitions of the $Eu^{3+}$ ion. In the case of the emission spectrum, all the phosphor powders, irrespective of $Eu^{3+}$ ion concentration, indicated an orange emission peak at 594 nm and a strong red emission spectrum centered at 615 nm, with two weak lines at 648 and 700 nm. The highest red emission intensity occurred at x = 0.10 mol of Eu3+ ion concentration with an asymmetry ratio of 12.5. Especially, the presence of $Eu^{3+}$ in the $Ca_{1-1.5x}WO_4:{Eu_x}^{3+}$ shows very effective use of excitation energy in the range of 305-420 nm, and finally yields a strong emission of red light.

고상 반응법을 사용하여 $Eu^{3+}$ 이온의 함량비를 변화시키면서 $Y_{1-x}PO_4:{Eu_x}^{3+}$ 적색 형광체를 합성하였다. 모든 적색 형광체의 결정 구조는 $25.88^{\circ}$에 중심을 갖는 (200) 주 회절 피크로 구성되는 정방정계이었으며, 결정 입자의 형상은 $Eu^{3+}$ 이온의 함량비가 증가함에 따라 구형에 근접하고 균일한 크기 분포를 나타내었다. 형광 특성의 경우에, $Eu^{3+}$ 이온의 함량비에 관계없이 모든 세라믹은 파장 593.0과 619.2 nm에 피크를 갖는 각각 적주황색과 적색 형광을 나타내었다. $Eu^{3+}$ 이온의 함량비가 증가함에 따라 여기 스펙트럼의 파장은 약간씩 장파장 쪽으로 이동하면서 흡수 세기는 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, $Eu^{3+}$ 이온의 함량비가 0.15 mol일 때 최대 흡수 및 발광 스펙트럼이 관측되었다.

분무열분해법을 이용하여 서브 미크론 크기의 $CeO_2:Er^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ 상향 변환 형광체 입자를 합성하고 $Er^{3+}$ 및 $Yb^{3+}$ 농도 변화에 따른 발광특성을 조사하였다. 합성한 $CeO_2:Er^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$는 $Er^{3+}$ 활성이온의 $^4S_{3/2}/^2H_{11/2}{\rightarrow}^4I_{15/2}$ 및 $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^4I_{15/2}$ 전이에 기인한 강한 녹색 및 적색 발광을 보였다. 가장 높은 발광을 보이는 활성제 농도는 Er = 1.0% 그리고 Yb = 2.0%이며, 농도소광 현상은 쌍극자-쌍극자 상호작용을 통해 일어남이 확인되었다. 레이저 다이오드 여기 광 세기에 대한 발광강도 의존성을 활성이온 농도에 따라 조사하였고, 발광 중간 에너지 레벨의 주 소멸과정을 고려하여 발광 메커니즘을 조사하였다. $Yb^{3+}$에서 $Er^{3+}$으로 에너지 전달은 바닥 상태 흡수(ground state absorption, GSA)에 기여하고, $Yb^{3+}$ 도핑은 $^4I_{11/2}{\rightarrow}^4I_{13/2}$ 전이를 가속화시켜 적색/녹색 발광세기 비를 상승시킨다. 최종적으로 분무열분해법으로 제조된 $CeO_2:Er^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ 형광체의 발광은 선형 감쇠가 중간 에너지 레벨의 고갈을 지배하는 2 광자 프로세스에 의해 일어남을 확인하였다.

Optimized volume production of nanoscale phosphor powders synthesized by radio frequency (RF) plasma process was developed for the application to plasma display panels. The nano powders were synthesized by feeding the both solid and liquid type precursors, and nanoparticle phosphors were characterized in terms of particle size, shape, and photoluminescence (PL) intensities. Computer simulation was performed in advance to determine the process parameters, and nano phosphors were evaluated by comparing with current commercial micron-sized phosphor powders. Practical feeding of both solid and liquid type precursor was proved to be effective for volume production.The developed process showed a potential as a production method for red, blue and green phosphor although the PL intensity still needs further improvement.

High luminance 3D built-in PDP panel was developed with newly adopted fast-decaying phosphor. Luminance of 3D PDP was increased about 40% by reducing the particle size of RGB phosphors and using $Y_3(Al,Ga)_5O_{12}:Ce^{3+}$ phosphor. Decay time of developed 3D PDP was 5.2ms/4.9ms for Red/Green color.

$(Y,Gd)BO_3$: Eu, $Zn_2$$SiO_4$ : Mn and $BaMgAl_{10}$ $O_{17}$ : Eu phosphors used in PDP were continuously irradiated by vacuum ultra violet generated from the penning gas (96%Ar+4%Xe) discharge and then the change of emitting intensity with time was investigated. The brightness of these phosphors decreased exponentially with VUV excitation time. The experimental data showed that the degradation rate increased in the order of $Zn_2$$SiO_4$ : Mn>(Y,Gd)$BO_3$: Eu>$BaMgAl_{10}$ $O_{17}$ : Eu phosphor. This different degradation property of phosphors was interpreted in terms of brightness saturation and stability against VUV irradiation. It was found that the degradation property of $(Y,Gd)BO_3$ : Eu red phosphor synthesized by ultrasonic thermal spray was superior to commercial phosphor.

White LEDs (light-emitting diodes) are promising new-generation light sources which can replace conventional lamps due to their high reliability, low energy consumption and eco-friendly effects. This paper briefly reviews recent progress of oxy/nitride host phosphor and quantum dot materials with broad excitation band characteristics for phosphor-converted white LEDs. Among oxy/nitride host materials, $M_2Si_5N_8:Eu^{2+}$, $MAlSiN_3:Eu^{2+}$ M-SiON(M=Ca, Sr, Ba), ${\alpha}/{\beta}-SiAlON:Eu^{2+}$ are excellent phosphors for white LED using blue-emitting chip. They have very broad excitation bands in the range of 440-460 nm and exhibit emission from green to red. In this paper, In this review we focus on recent developments in the crystal structure, luminescence and applications of the oxy/nitride phosphors for white LEDs. In addition, the application prospects and current trends of research and development of quantum dot phosphors are also discussed.

Monochromatic amber phosphor in glasses (PiGs) for automotive LED applications were fabricated with $YAG:Ce^{3+}$, $CaAlSiN_3:Eu^{2+}$ phosphors and Pb-free silicate glass. After synthesis and thickness-thinning process, PiGs were mounted on high-power blue LED to make monochromatic amber LEDs. PiGs were simple mixtures of 566 nm yellow YAG, 615 nm red $CaAlSiN_3:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor and transparent glass frit. The powders were uniaxially pressed and treated again through CIP (cold isostatic pressing) at 200 MPa for 20 min to increase packing density. After conventional thermal treatment at $550^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, PiGs were applied by using GPS (gas pressure sintering) to obtain a fully dense PiG plate. As the phosphor content increased, the density of the sintered body decreased and PiGs containing 30 wt% phosphor had full sintered density. Changes in photoluminescence spectra and color coordination were investigated by varying the ratio of $YAG/CaAlSiN_3$ and the thickness of the plates. Considering the optical spectrum and color coordinates, PiG plates with $240{\mu}m$ thickness showed a color purity of 98% and a wavelength of about 605 nm. Plates exhibit suitable optical characteristics as amber light-converting material for automotive LED applications.
