| dc.description.abstract | A novel green-emitting phosphor copper-doped barium aluminate was synthesized by the conventional ceramic method. The crystallographic phase and microstructure identification were performed by powder X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the sample confirms the formation of the phosphor, and the scanning electron microscope image was recorded to observe the surface morphology. Differential thermal analysis results show that the initiatory decomposition temperature of barium carbonate starts at about 728 degrees C. Cathodoluminescence studies have been undertaken to ensure the successful incorporation of copper ions in the barium aluminate host lattice. Under the excitation of the electron beam, the phosphor can efficiently display a broad green emission centered at 490nm, corresponding to the transition from the conduction band edge to the excited state of copper in the barium aluminate host. However, there are no data available on copper luminescence in barium aluminate. New results on 3d activators of copper emission in the barium aluminate host are reported in this article, thus extending the list of copper-activated phosphors. These results strongly indicate that the copper-activated barium aluminate is a potential material used as a new high-brightness green phosphor for ultraviolet light-emitting diode and display devices. | |
