title: Emission analysis of Sm(3+) and Dy(3+):MgLaLiSi(2)O(7) powder phosphors.
abstract: This paper reports on the structural and emission properties of newly synthesized Sm(3+) and Dy(3+):MgLaLiSi(2)O(7) powder phosphors based on the measurement of their XRD, SEM, FTIR and photoluminescence spectra. Emission spectra of the Sm(3+):MgLaLiSi(2)O(7) phosphors with lambda(exci)=402 nm ((6)H(5/2)-->(4)F(7/2)) and Dy(3+):MgLaLiSi(2)O(7) phosphors with lambda(exci)=385 nm ((6)H(15/2)-->(4)I(13/2)) have been analyzed. Emission mechanisms of these phosphors have also been explained.
