| dc.description.abstract | Cerium and terbium activated white emitting yttrium silicate phosphors (Y-2-x-yCe(x)Tb(y)SiO(5)) having average size between 96 and 123 nm were synthesised by a gel-combustion, and their phase and crystal structures, morphologies and ultraviolet (UV)-visible spectroscopic properties were studied. All rare earth doped yttrium silicate (YSO) phosphors are well crystallized powders containing only monoclinic X2-Y2SiO5 phase. No significant changes in the cell parameters were observed with increasing of Tb amount as ionic radii of Tb3+ (0.923 angstrom) and Y3+ (0.9 angstrom) have almost the same. Under different excitations, YSO:Ce3+ exhibits blue emission due to the 5d-4f transitions of Ce3+ ions. The series of emission states at different wavelengths of YSO:Tb3+ associated to f-f transition of Tb3+ ion were detected from luminescence measurements. The emission observed at 544 nm (green) corresponding to D-5(4) -> F-7(5) of Tb3+ is strongest one. Incorporation of variable amounts of Tb3+ in the YSO host lattice determines the modification of emission colour from blue through light blue and eventually to bluish green. A possible energy transfer mechanism taking place from Ce3+ to Tb3+ was also discussed in terms of excitation and emission spectra. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. | |
