Enhancement of luminescence intensity and color purity of MgxZn1-xMoO4:Eu3+,Bi3+ phosphors

ZDAMoO4:Eu3+ red phosphors co-doped with Mg2+ and Bi3+ were synthesized using a solid-state reaction. X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and photoluminescence analysis were used for characterizing the phosphors. The introduction of Mg2+ into a Zn2+ site further enhanced the emis...

Summary:ZDAMoO4:Eu3+ red phosphors co-doped with Mg2+ and Bi3+ were synthesized using a solid-state reaction. X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and photoluminescence analysis were used for characterizing the phosphors. The introduction of Mg2+ into a Zn2+ site further enhanced the emission intensity of the 5D0→VF2 transition since the asymmetry ofa Eu3+ site increased when Zn2+ was substituted by Mg2+. The co-doped Bi3+ efficiently sensitized the emission of Eu3+ and effectively extended the absorption of near-ultraviolet light with wavelengths ranging from 300 to 370 nm. The high color purity of Mg0.10Zn0.84MoO4:Eu0.053+,Bi0.013+ was calculated to be 91.80%. The thermal quenching temperature Td was about 387 K and the activation energy for thermal quench- ing was found to be about 0.31 eV for Mg0.10Zn0.84MoO4.Eu0.053+,Bi0.013+, respectively. Moreover, the results revealed that the energy transfer was more effective when the Zn0.95MoO4:Eu0.053+ phosphors were co-doped with Mg2+ ions and Bi3+ ions than those doped only with Mg2+ ions.
