Synthesis and photoluminescence properties of high thermal stability Mn4+ in orthorhombic SrLa2Mg2W2O12 red phosphor for warm w-LEDs

摘要： We successfully synthesized SrLa2Mg2W2O12:xMn4+ (x = 0.002, 0.004, 0.006, 0.008, 0.010, 0.012, 0.014) phosphors through a high-temperature solid-state reaction. The phase of sample was shown by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The morphology of the sample was observed by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM), which showed the irregular morphology of SrLa2Mg2W2O12 (SLMW) powders. Additionally, the photoluminescence excitation (PLE), emission (PL) and ultraviolet–visible reflection spectra were also presented. As shown in results, the phosphor could be stimulated by the ultraviolet (UV) and near ultraviolet (NUV) light and then exhibited far-red emission (697?nm). The optimum doping concentration of Mn4+ is 1?mol%. The thermal stability of phosphors has been investigated and discussed (I423K/I298K = 64.6%), and the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of SLMW:0.01Mn4+ phosphors is as high as 51.2%. Finally, a far-red light-emitting diodes (LEDs) was fabricated by combining a 365?nm near-ultraviolet InGaN chip with SLMW:0.01Mn4+ phosphor. The Color Rendering Index (CRI), correlated color temperature (CCT) and luminescent efficiency (LE) values were 29.5, 1159?K and 5.6?lm/W, respectively. All of these indicated that SLMW:Mn4+ as a far-red phosphor can be applied to LEDs lamp and it has enormous potential applications in white light-emitting diodes (w-LEDs).
