Solid-State Combinatorial Chemistry Of Eu2+-Doped Sr-Al-Si-O-N Phosphors

Sr-Al-Si-O-N composition space was screened by a solid state combinatorial chemistry. For this sake, powder mixtures of Sr3N2, alpha-Si3N4, AIN and Eu3N2 was fired at 1500 degrees C-1900 degrees C for 2 h under 1.0 Mpa N-2 using a gas pressurized sintering (GPS) furnace. The resultant phosphors were phase-identified, and the photo luminescence was examined. The Sr-Al-Si-O-N phosphors are blue-Green and orange in color and emit in the region of 520-630 nm depending on synthesized temperature. Considering an intense excitation band in blue LED and emission band, these materials can be used as novel conversion phosphor for White-LEDs, if the luminance was improved.
