In this study, divalent europium-activated $NaCaPO_4$ green phosphor powders were prepared by the chemical synthetic method followed by heat treatment in reduced atmosphere, and the crystal structures, morphologies and photoluminescent properties of the powders were investigated by x-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscope and spectrometer for the first time. The effects of Ca/P and Na/Ca mole ratios on the final products were also investigated. The influences of input amount change of europium as the activator on the light emission intensity were studied, and the resulting concentration quenching phenomenon was observed. The optimized synthesis conditions obtained in this study were Ca/P mole ratio 1.2, Na/Ca mole ratio 3.0 and 4 mole%Eu. The peak wavelength was 505 nm for all the samples. The result of excitation spectrum measurement indicated that the excitation efficiency was high for the long-wavelength UV region. It was thus concluded that the samples prepared in this study can be successfully applied for the light-emitting devices such as LED excited with long-wavelength UV light sources.

The mechanochemical process were employed to prepare the red phosphors (Y,Gd)$BO_3:Eu^{3+}$. The main factors affecting particle size, particle distribution, and luminescent properties of the product were investigated in details. Particles sized around 200-600 nm are formed after intensive milling. The phosphors were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and photoluminescence spectrum. Results revealed that phosphors with different morphology, small particle size and high luminescence intensity could be obtained by mechanochemical process.

Flat panel display devices are mainly used as information display devices in the 21st century. The worldwide waste flat panel displays are expected at 2-3 million units but most of them are land-filled for want of a proper recycling technology More specifically, rare earth metals of La and Eu are used as fluorescent materials of Cold Cathode Flourscent Lamp(CCFL)s in the waste flat panel displays and they are critically vulnerable and irreplaceable strategic mineral resources. At present, most of the waste CCFLs are disposed of by land-filling and incineration and proper recovery of 80-plus tons per annum of the rare earth fluorescent materials will significantly contribute to steady supply of them. A dearth of Korean domestic research results on recovery and recycling of rare earth elements in the CCFLs prompts to initiate this status report on overseas research trends and noteworthy research results in related fields.

Powder electroluminescent device (PELD) structured conventionally dielectric and phosphor layer, between electrode and their layer fabricated by screen printing splaying or spin coating method. To promote performance of PELDs, we approached the experiments for different structure and thickness variation of PELD. Thickness variation($30{\mu}m{\sim}130{\mu}m$) was taken. To investigate electrical and optical properties of PELDs, EL spectrum, transferred charge density using Sawyer-Tower's circuit brightness was measured. Variation of structure in PELDs was as follows: WK-1 (ITO/BaTiO3/ZnS:Cu/Silver paste), WK-2 (ITO/BaTiO3/ZnS:Cu/BaTiO3/ZnS:Silver paste), WK-3 (ITO/BaTiO3/ZnS:Cu/BaTiO3/Silver paste), WK-4(ITO/BaTiO3+ZnS:Cu/Silver paste) As a result, structure of the highest brightness appeared WK-4 possessed 60 ${\mu}m$ thickness. The brightness was 2719 cd/$m^2$ at 100V, 400Hz.

For this study, terbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG:Tb) phosphor powders were prepared via the combustion process using the varous reagents. The characteristics of the synthesized nano powder were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM), and photoluminescence (PL). Single-phase cubic YAG:Tb crystalline powder was obtained at $1000^{\circ}C$ by directly crystallizing it from amorphous materials, as determined by XRD techniques. The SEM image showed that the resulting YAG:Tb powders had uniform sizes and good homogeneity. The photoluminescence spectra of the YAG:Tb nanoparticles were investigated to determinethe energy level of electron transition related to luminescence processes. There were three peaks in the excited spectrum, and the major one was a broad band of around 274 nm. Also, the YAG:Tb nanoparticles showed two emission peaks in the range of 450~500 nm and 525~560 nm, respectively, and had maximum intensity at 545 nm.

이 연구에서는 알코올과 증류수를 특정비율로 혼합한 특수용매를 사용하여 합성한 Gd2O3:Eu 나노 분말이 Europium(Eu)함량에 따라 어떤 입자특성과 발광특성을 가지게 되는지에 대하여 조사하였다. 액상법에 사용된 이 용매는 Gadolinium(Gd)과 Europium(Eu)의 용해되는 시간을 현저히 줄임으로써, 실험시간이 단축됨을 확인하였다. 이번 실험에서 Gd2O3:Eu 나노 powder 형광체의 입자특성은 SEM(scanning electron microscope)과 EDX(Energy Dispersive X-ray)를 사용하였으며, 나노 powder의 발광특성은 PL(Photoluminescence), CL(CathodeLuminescence)을 사용하여 측정하였다. 결정들은 30nm~40nm의 크기의 결정을 가졌고 발광특성은 약 620nm의 특정 파장에서 크게 반응함을 알 수 있었으며, Europium(Eu)함량이 1wt%에서 3wt%, 5wt%로 늘어날수록 Photon의 count가 증가하게 되어 발광효율이 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

Willemite ($Zn_2SiO_4$) are a wide range of applications such as a phosphor host and an important crystalline phase in glass ceramics, electrical insulators, glazes, and pigments. In this study, Willemite precursors were synthesized with zinc silicate gels from mixture of zinc nitrate solution and various sodium silicate solution by the geopolymer technique. To examine the crystallization behavior, precursors were have been monitored by the XRD. A pure willemite phase was obtained at $900^{\circ}C$. TEM investigations revealed that the sample with 50 nm particle size was obtained via heat-treated at $900^{\circ}C$ for W-3.

The structural and optical properties on $Tb^{3+}$ addition into LiGd$(PO_3)_4$ compound were investigated by X-ray powder diffraction and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The emission spectrum shows the strongest peak corresponding to the $^5D_4{\rightarrow}^7F_5$ transition of $Tb^{3+}$ at 546 nm under 147 nm and 173 nm excitation. 85 mol% concentration of $Tb^{3+}$ for LiGd$(PO_3)_4$ is much higher than other Tb-doped phosphors.

$Eu^{3+}$ -doped $Y_2$$O_3$ phosphors has been prepared by a polymerized complex method and investigated their powder and luminescence properties. They were compared with phosphors prepared by a solid state reac-thion method. The phosphors synthesized have been characterized by X-ray diffraction low-voltage lu-minescent emission spectroscopy etc. Under low-voltage electron excitation $Eu^{3+}$-doped $Y_2$$O_3$ exhibited a strong narrow-band red emission peaking at 612nm. On the other hand the critical value for concentration quenching of sample prepared by the polymerized complex method fired at $1400^{\circ}C$ is x=0.05 for $(Y_{1-x}Eu_x__2O_3$ The emission intensity of phosphors prepared by the polymerized complex method was higher than that of phosphors prepared by the solid state reaction method.
