Crystallization and Luminescence Properties of Sm3＋-Doped SrO-Al2O3-SiO2 Glass-Ceramics

The Sm^（3＋）-doped SrO-Al2O3-SiO2（SAS） glass-ceramics with excellent luminescence properties were prepared by batch melting and heat treatment. The crystallization behavior and luminescent properties of the glass-ceramics were investigated by DTA, XRD, SEM and luminescence spectroscopy. The results indicate that the crystal phase precipitated in this system is monocelsian（SrAl2Si2O） and with the increase of nucleation/crystallization temperature, the crystallite increases from 66 % to 79 %. The Sm（3＋）-doped SAS glass-ceramics emit green, orange and red lights centered at 565, 605, 650 and 715 nm under the excitation of 475 nm blue light which can be assigned to the 4 G5/2→6 Hj/2（j=5, 7, 9, 11） transitions ofSm^（3＋）, respectively. Besides, by increasing the crystallization temperature or the concentration ofSm^（3＋）, the emission lights of the samples located at 565, 605 and 650 nm are intensified significantly. The present results demonstrate that theSm^（3＋）-doped SAS glassceramics are promising luminescence materials for white LED devices by fine controlling and combining of these three green, orange and red lights in appropriate proportion.

SPECTRAL VARIATION AND CHARACTERISTICS OF LOW VALENCY RARE EARTH IONS IN COMPLEX OXIDESⅢ.EFFECT OF THE CRYSTAL ENVIRONMENT AND CHEMICAL FACTORS ON LUMINESCENCE PROPERTIES OF EUROPIUM (Ⅱ) ION

In this paper,the influence of crystal-field on the Luminescence properties of Eu^(2+) in complex oxides are studied theoretically by using purely electrostatic model,the dependence of the 4f^65d levels on Eu-O bond distance is given.Quantum chemistry calculation shows that the splitting extent of 4f^65d energy band in cubic or in octahedral fields will be inversely proportional to R^5,where R is the distance of Eu^(2+) to oxygen ligand.The value of R affects slightly the location of the centre of 4f^65d energy band.According to the exper- imental spectrum data,we have discussed the influence of the host chemical composition,the replaced sites of Eu^(2+) and degree of covalency of Eu-O bond on luminescence properties of Eu^(2+).Some regularity of fluorescence spectrum was observed. In alkali-alkaline earth-phosphates,the splitting extent of 4f^65d band (△E) becomes smaller as the Eu-O bond distance (R) increases.In Na_(3-x)(PO_4)_(1-x)(SO_4)_x and Na_(2-x)CaSi_(1-x)P_xO_4 hosts,d-d emission peak of Eu^(2+) will shift to shorter wavelength with the increase of x's value. The crystal structure data show that Eu^(2+) in K_2Mg_2(SO_4)_3 is affected more strongly by crystal-field and covalancy than in KMgF_3,so K_2Mg_2(SO_4)_3:Eu^(2+) emits blue light (E_(em)~m=400nm) and KMgF_3:Eu^(2+) produces ultraviolet fluorescence.

In addition,complex 1 is found to show photoluminescence in the solid state at room temperature,which can be ascribed to the intraligand π→π＊ transitions.

All the samples emitted both 660 nm red light and 543/523 nm green light which originated from Er^3＋-4f^n electronic transitions ~4F（9/2-~4I（15/2 and ~4S（3/2/~2H（11/2-~4I（15/2, respectively.
