Fluorescence enhancement of single-phase red-blue emit-ting Ba_3MgSi_2O_8:Eu^(2+),Mn^(2+) phosphors via Dy^(3+) addition for plant cultivation

Fluorescence enhancement of red and blue concurrently emitting Ba3MgSi2O8:Eu2+,Mn2+ phosphors for plant cultivation has been investigated by Dy3+ addition.The Ba3MgSi2O8:Eu2+,Mn2+,Dy3+(BMS-EMD) phosphors have two-color emissions at the wavelength peak values of 437 nm and 620 nm at the excitation of 350 nm.The two emission bands are coincident with the absorption spectrum for photosynthesis of plants.An obvious enhancement effect has been observed upon addition of Dy3+ with amount of 0.03 mol%,in which the intensities of both blue and red bands reach a maximum.The origin of red and blue emission bands is analysed.The photochromic parameters of the samples at the nearly UV excitation are tested.This fluoresence enhancement is of great significance for special solid state lighting equipment used in plant cultivation.
