The products were measured by powder X-ray diffraction（PXRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, transmission electron microscopy（TEM）, photoluminescence, and fluorescent decay test. The results showed that reaction time, temperature, p H values and Eu^3＋ doped concentration played important roles in determining the morphologies and photoluminescent properties. And we also investigated its use in Ga N LED, warm-white-light could be obtained by the combination of the bright blue light originated from the charge transfer transition in the tungstate groups and the near UV light from LED chip with the red emission from 4f-4f transition of Eu^3＋, respectively. By properly tuning the doping concentration of Eu^3＋, chromaticity coordinates（0.30 0.22） could be achieved under the 380 nm excitation and its color rendering index was 80.6. So it has potential application in warm-WLED and replacing the commercial YAG：Ce phosphor which absence of red band emission.展开更多

This glass can be excited from 394 nm-peaked near ultraviolet light, 466 nm-peaked blue light, to 534 nm- peaked green light to emit the desired red light with an excellent transmission in the wavelength range of 400-700 nm which makes this glass suitable for color conversion without a great cost of luminous power loss. In particular, when assembling this glass for commercial white light-emitting diodes, the tested results show that the color rendering index is improved to 84 with a loss of luminous power by 12 percent at average, making this variety of glass promising for inorganic ＂remote-phosphor＂ color conversion.展开更多
