The diffuse reflection absorption, excitation and emission spectra of yb3＋：Ba2YB＇O6 （B＇= Ta5＋, Nb5＋） were measured at room temperature. Under the excitation of ultraviolet light, these phosphors exhibit broad charge transfer band emissions of TaO6 or NbO6 centre with large Stokes shift. The Yb3＋ doped into these hosts are situated at y3＋ sites of cubic symmetry （Oh）. The experimental energy levels of Yb3＋ in Ba2YTaO6 and Ba2YNbO6 were determined by photoluminescence and diffuse reflection absorption spectra. Their wavefunctions and theoretical energy levels were obtained by diagonalising the Hamiltonian matrix. The experimental energy levels were fitted by Levenberg-Marquardt iteration algorithm to determine crystal field parameters. Then, the magnetic-pole transition line strengths of yb3＋：Ba2YB＇O6 （B＇=Ta5＋, Nb5＋） from （2F5/2）Г8-to the low-energy states were calculated.展开更多

X-Ray Powder Diffraction （XRD） analysis confirmed the formation of Sr2Al2SiO7：Ce^3＋, Tb^3＋. Scanning Electron Microscopy （SEM） observation indicated that the microstructure of the phosphor consisted of regular fine grains with an average size of about 0.5-1 μm. Luminescence properties were analyzed by measuring the photoluminescence spectra. The Ce^3＋, Tb^3＋-codoped Sr2Al2SiO7 phosphors showed four main emission peaks： one at 414 nm for Ce^3＋ and three at 482, 543, and 588 nm for Tb^3＋. The emission spectra of the samples with different doping concentrations showed that the Tb^3＋ emission was dominant because of the persistent energy transfer from Ce^3＋. The decay characteristic was better than that prepared by the solid-state process in the comparable condition. The codoped phosphor displayed long persistent white phosphorescence.展开更多
