Fine controllable blue emission and its mechanism in Ce^(3+)-doped orthosilicate solid solution phosphors for different plant growths

The designed Ce^3＋-doped alkaline-earth silicate phosphors CamSr2 m-nBanSiO4：Ce^3＋,Li^＋ （CSBS：Ce^3＋） were synthesized by a high temperature solid-state reaction. The crystal field splitting and the centroid shift from the flee ion energy of 5d configuration were approximated from the spectrum for Ca2SiO4, Sr2SiO4 and Ba2SiO4 phosphors. The single-phase purity was checked by means of X-ray diffraction. Here, when the doped concentration of Ca2. is less than 80% （m 〈 1.6）, we report the structural phase transformation from monoclinic system [3-Ca2Si04 to orthorhombic system α′-Ca2SiO4. The phosphors excited by near-ultraviolet （NUV） light at wavelengths ranging from 200 to 400 nm demonstrate a broad asymmetric blue emission band. The emission peak wavelength redshifts firstly from 417 nm of Ca2SiO4 to 438 nm of Sro.3Cal.6SiO4, and then blueshifts to 411 nm of Sr2SiO4, and the end of 401 nm of Ba2SiOa. These results indicate that the tunable blue-emission of the phosphors can he realized through changing the solid solution components, which has a potential use as a blue component for fabricated precision modulation LEDs light sources and auxiliaries of SSC plastics films for different plant growths. We discuss in detail the possible mechanism and energy diagram of the tunable blue luminescence in CamSr2-M-nBaNSiO4：Ce^3＋.Li^＋ phosphors.
