Abstract

The trivalent samarium doped Sr2CeO4 color-tunable phosphors were successfully synthesized by solid state reaction at 1200℃ for 6h and their luminescent characteristics were studied. The results indicate that the host can transfer its exciting energy to rare earth ion Sm3+ when excited with 365nm light. The emission color can be changed by tuning activator’s concentration in Sr2CeO4:Sm3+ phosphors. The doped compound emits strong white light when the concentration of the doped Sm3+ is lower than 3%. When the Sm3+ concentration is increased from 3% to 15%, it emits red light. The chromaticity coordinate of Sr2CeO4: 1% Sm3+ phosphor is measured
to be (x, y) (0.334, 0.320), which is closed to the pure white (0.33, 0.33). It shows that Sr2CeO4: 1% Sm3+ phosphor is a promising single white phosphor for ultraviolet light-emitting diode.
