    Abstract

    A series of red phosphors of CaLa2(WO4)4∶Eu3+ and CaLa2(WO4)4∶Eu3+, Sm3+ were synthesized by high temperature solid state method. The crystal structure, spectral properties, thermal stability, fluorescence lifetime, and color coordinates of the samples were analyzed by experimental equipment such as X-ray diffractometry and scanning electron microscopy, etc. The results show that the samples synthesized by doping Eu3+ and Sm3+ into CaLa2(WO4)4 did not contain impurity phases, and the crystal structure remains unchanged. Under the excitation of 394 nm, the CaLa2(WO4)4∶Eu3+ phosphors exhibit the strongest red light emission at 615 nm, originating from the 5D07F2 electric dipole transition of Eu3+. The optimal doping concentration is 0.09. After doping with Sm3+, the emission peaks enhance, and the lifetime of the phosphors significantly increases. Sm3+ exhibits a sensitizing effect on Eu3+. In the co-doped system, energy is transferred from Sm3+ to Eu3+. For CaLa2(WO4)4∶Eu3+, Sm3+, as the temperature increases, the integrated area of the 5D07F2 transition emission of Eu3+ gradually decreases; when the temperature rises to 100 ℃, the luminescence intensity become 53% of the initial temperature, indicating the occurrence of temperature quenching. In the co-doped system, the color coordinates move towards the red light region as the doping amount of Sm3+ increases. When the doping amount of Sm3+ is 0.02, the corresponding color coordinate is (0.645 8, 0.353 8). Based on the characteristics of CaLa2(WO4)4∶Eu3+, Sm3+ phosphors, it can be used as potential red phosphors for white LEDS.
