Abstract

A series of Ca3La6(SiO4)6:Eu2+ and Ca3La6(SiO4)6:Eu2+/Mn2+ phosphors were fabricated by a solid state reaction. The phase composition and luminescent properties of the fabricated phosphors were investigated. The XRD patterns show that Eu2+ and Mn2+ were doped into the Ca3La6(SiO4)6 host in the present experiment. The Ca3La6(SiO4)6:Eu2+ phosphors show the emission band in blue region and the Ca3La6(SiO4)6:Mn2+ phosphors exhibit the emission band in yellow region. The excitation band of Ca3La6(SiO4)6:Mn2+ overlaps with the emission band of Ca3La6(SiO4)6:Eu2+ that means a possibility for the energy transfer process from Eu2+ to Mn2+ in the Ca3La6(SiO4)6:Eu2+/Mn2+ phosphors. Tunable luminescence was obtained due to this energy transfer process and warm white light was emitted by Ca3La6(SiO4)6:0.05Eu2+/0.04Mn2+ and Ca3La6(SiO4)6:0.05Eu2+/0.05Mn2+ phosphors.
