Abstract

Ca₁₅(PO₄)₂(SiO₄) ₆:Eu²⁺,Ce³⁺ phosphor was synthesized by a solid-state reaction. Doping of Ce³⁺ into the Ca²⁺ site of the Ca₁₅(PO₄)₂(SiO₄) ₆:Eu²⁺ phosphor enhanced the Eu²⁺ emission greatly, as observed by measuring the photoluminescence properties and the quantum efficiency levels. The mechanism of the enhancement of the Eu ²⁺ emission by Ce³⁺ doping was investigated by comparing the normalized photoluminescence (PL) spectra with the normalized photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectra and analyzing the absorbance and the fluorescence lifetime of the Ca₁₅(PO₄) ₂(SiO₄)₆:Eu²⁺,Ce³⁺ phosphors. Furthermore, the thermoluminescence properties were measured to confirm the thermal stability of the synthesized phosphor when exposed to the high junction temperature of recent high-power LED chips, showing a thermal activation energy barrier of 0.213 eV.
