Eu2+ and Mn2+ codoped Ba2Mg(BO3)2--new red phosphor for white LEDs.
A new red phosphor, Ba(2)Mg(BO(3))(2):Eu,Mn, was synthesized by the solid-state reaction method and its photoluminescence properties were investigated by excitation and emission spectra and decay curves. Its excitation band is extending from 250-450 nm, which is adaptable to the emission band of near-ultraviolet LED chips (350-420 nm). Upon the excitation of 365 nm light, the phosphor exhibits strong red emission centered at 615 nm. The relationship between Eu(2+) and Mn(2+) dopants was studied from the viewpoint of a crystal structure and by photoluminescence spectra and decay curves. The results show that the characteristic Eu(2+) emission predominate in the emission band and Mn(2+) promote the redistribution of Eu(2+) at the cation sites of the host crystal.
