We investigate the influence of precursor molar ratio of [S^2-]/[Zn^2+] on particle size and photoluminescence (PL) of ZnS:Mn^2+ nanocrystMs. By changing the [S^2-]/[Zn^2+] ratio from 0.6 (Zn-rich) to 2.0 (S-...We investigate the influence of precursor molar ratio of [S^2-]/[Zn^2+] on particle size and photoluminescence (PL) of ZnS:Mn^2+ nanocrystMs. By changing the [S^2-]/[Zn^2+] ratio from 0.6 (Zn-rich) to 2.0 (S-rich), the particle size increases from nearly 2. 7nm to about 4.Ohm. The increase in the ratio of [S^2-]/[Zn^2+] cadses a decrease of PL emission intensity of ZnS host while a distinct increase of Mn^2+ emission. The maximum intensity for the luminescence of Mn^2+ emission is observed at the ratio of [S^2-]/[Zn^2+] ≈ 1.5. The possible mechanism for the results is discussed by filling of S^2- vacancies and the increase of Mn^2+ ions incorporated into ZnS lattices.展开更多

The photoluminescence spectrum of sample ([S^2-]/[Zn^2+] = 1.0) shows a strong white emission with a peak at 490nm and - 170 nm full widths at half maximum. By Gauss fitting, the white emission is attributed to the overlap of a blue emission and a green-yellow emission, originating from electronic transitions from internal S^2- vacancies level to valence band and to the internal Zn^2+ vacancy level, respectively. After sealingZnS nanocrystals onto InGaN chips, the device shows CIE coordinates of (0.29,0.30), which indicates their potential applications for white light emitting diodes.展开更多
