Abstract

A series of Ca(4)Y(6)(SiO(4))(6)O (CYS): Ce(3+)/Mn(2+)/Tb(3+) oxyapatite phosphors were prepared via high-temperature solid-state reaction. Under UV excitation, there exist dual energy transfers (ET), i.e., Ce(3+)→Mn(2+) and Ce(3+)→Tb(3+) in the CYS: Ce(3+), Mn(2+), Tb(3+) system and their emitting colors can be adjusted from blue to orange-red via ET of Ce(3+)→Mn(2+) and from blue to green via ET of Ce(3+)→Tb(3+), respectively. Moreover, a wide-range-tunable white light emission with high quantum yields (13%-30%) were obtained by precisely controlling the contents of Ce(3+), Mn(2+) and Tb(3+) ions. On the other hand, the CL properties of CYS: Ce(3+), Mn(2+), Tb(3+) phosphors have been investigated in detail. The studied results indicate that the as-prepared CYS: Ce(3+), Mn(2+), Tb(3+) phosphors have good CL intensity and CIE color coordinate stability with a color-tunable emission crossing the whole white light region under low-voltage electron beam excitation. In general, the white light with varied hues has been obtained in Ce(3+), Mn(2+), and Tb(3+)-triactivated CYS phosphors by utilizing the principle of energy transfer and properly designed activator contents under UV (284, 358 nm) and low-voltage (1-5 kV) electron beam excitation, which make them as a potential single-composition trichromatic white-emitting phosphor.
