Red enhanced YAG:Ce, Pr nanophosphor for white LEDs
Rare earth ion Pr3+ was co doped in yellow emitting YAG:Ce nanophosphor to introduce red emission for improving colour rendering property of white LED. Nanocrystalline YAG:Ce, YAG:Ce, Pr was synthesised by a single step auto combustion process. Photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra of YAG:Ce, Pr nanophosphor, when excited by 460nm blue light, exhibited sharp red emission peaks at 610nm from Pr3+ ions in addition to broad yellow emission from Ce3+ peaking at 540nm due to charge transfer from excited Ce3+ 5d band to 3PJ/1D2 level of Pr3+. Ce3+ (yellow) and Pr3+ (red) emission decays in tens of nanoseconds and microseconds, respectively. Electroluminescence spectra of blue LED with developed phosphor layer shows colour coordinates (0.30, 0.39) close to ideal white light.

Abstract

Rare earth ion Pr3+ was co doped in yellow emitting YAG:Ce nanophosphor to introduce red emission for improving colour rendering property of white LED. Nanocrystalline YAG:Ce, YAG:Ce, Pr was synthesised by a single step auto combustion process. Photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra of YAG:Ce, Pr nanophosphor, when excited by 460nm blue light, exhibited sharp red emission peaks at 610nm from Pr3+ ions in addition to broad yellow emission from Ce3+ peaking at 540nm due to charge transfer from excited Ce3+ 5d band to 3PJ/1D2 level of Pr3+. Ce3+ (yellow) and Pr3+ (red) emission decays in tens of nanoseconds and microseconds, respectively. Electroluminescence spectra of blue LED with developed phosphor layer shows colour coordinates (0.30, 0.39) close to ideal white light.
