X-ray diffraction, photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, reflectance spectra and chromaticity coordinates were carried out in this study. The CaTb4(SiO4)3O host has been known to crystallize in a hexagonal structure with disordering found in the Ca2+ and Tb3+ cation sites. The phosphors exhibited highly green-emitting band centered at 541 nm under ultraviolet excitation, which corresponds to the 5D4→7F5 transition. The optimal doping concentration of Tb3+ was observed to be at 20 mol%, and the PL intensity was found to decline dramatically when the content of Tb3+ exceeds 20m01% due to concentration quenching. Based on the results, we are currently evaluating the potential application of Ca(Tb,La)4(SiO4)30 as a new green-emitting near-UV LED convertible phosphor.展开更多
