Blue-Orange Emission from Sm3+ Activated LaCePO4 Phosphor for Display Applications
Abstract
We discuss new features of Sm3+ doped LaCePO4 phosphor as a potential candidate for display applications. Mainly, the traditional modified solid-state synthesis technique was used to prepare the samples. The X-ray diffraction technique was used for the structural studies. LaCePO4:Sm3+ phosphor production was verified by Fourier transform infrared studies. It was customary to use scanning electron microscopy to learn more about the morphology of the prepared samples. Additionally, photoluminescence (PL) analysis of the phosphor samples was presented for different doping ion concentrations with various excitations. In the presence of Sm3+, LaCePO4 emits powerful blue and orange emissions. In-depth research was carried out on the transitions between the concentration quenching effect and the doping ion. The distribution of the spectral region estimated from PL emission spectra was shown in the 1931 Commission International de l'Éclairage (x,y) chromaticity coordinates and was located (0.20,0.22) in the blue region. According to our research, as-prepared phosphor may find useful application in display devices, especially because of its blue and orange content.
