A series of BaBPO5phosphors doped with different concentration of Eu2+ions were synthesized by solid state reaction method. The reduction of Eu3+to Eu2+ions were obtained by heating in pure argon atmosphere. The structural properties were analyzed by using X-ray diffraction (XRD). Luminescence properties were measured at room temperature using photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy and the effects of europium ion in the phosphor were investigated. The XRD results showed that crystal structure of the phosphor is hexagonal single phases. The addition of europium ions exhibit a broad emission band in the violet region peaking at 383 nm corresponding to transition of configuration state 4f65d à 4f7(8S7/2) of Eu2+ions. The emission intensity is affected by the concentration of Eu2+. The optimum intensity is observed for 0.2 mol % of Eu2+ion. The occurrence of emission lines in violet region indicates that this phosphor has potential in solid-state lighting application.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
