Trivalent europium-based monochromatic
red light-emitting phosphors
are an essential component to realize high-performance smart lighting
devices; however, the concentration and thermal quenching restrict
their usage. Here, we report a series of efficient Eu3+-substituted Li3Y3BaSr(MoO4)8 red-emitting phosphors based on a stratified scheelite structure
with negligible concentration and thermal quenching. All of the host
and phosphor compositions crystallize in monoclinic crystal structure
(space group C2/c). All of the phosphor
compositions produce narrow-band red emission (FWHM ∼6 nm),
which is highly apparent to the human eyes, and lead to exceptional
chromatic saturation of the red spectral window. Concurrently, detailed
investigations were carried out to comprehend the concentration and
thermal quenching mechanism. Absolute quantum yields as high as 88.5%
were obtained for Li3Y0.3Eu2.7BaSr(MoO4)8 phosphor with virtuous thermal stability (at
400 K, retaining 87% of its emission intensity). The light-emitting
diodes were constructed by coupling Li3BaSrY0.3Eu2.7(MoO4)8 red phosphor with a
near-UV LED chip (395 nm) operated at 20 mA forward bias, and the
hybrid white LED (an organic yellow dye + red Li3Y3BaSr(MoO4)8:Eu3+ phosphor
integrated with an NUV LED chip) showed a low CCT (6645 K), high CRI
(83) values, and CIE values of x = 0.303; y = 0.368, which indicated that the synthesized phosphors
can be a suitable red component for white LEDs. In addition, we have
systematically investigated the Sm3+ and Sm3+, Eu3+ activation in Li3Y3BaSr(MoO4)8 to display the latent use of the system in plant
growth applications and establish that the phosphor exhibits orange
red emission with an intense deep-red emission (645 nm (4G5/2 → 6H9/2)). The phytochrome
(Pr) absorption spectrum well matched the fabricated deep-red LED
(by integrating a NUV LED + Li3Y3BaSr(MoO4)8:Sm3+ and Eu3+ phosphor)
spectral lines.

A series of smart luminescent Eu(iii) complexes (C1 = Eu(DBM)3ligand 1, C2 = Eu(DBM)3ligand 2, C3 = Eu(DBM)3ligand 3, C4 = Eu(DBM)3 ligand 4, C5 = Eu(DBM)3ligand 5) were synthesized by using C1-functionalized phenanthro-imidazole derivatives as the neutral ligands and dibenzoylmethanate (DBM) as the anionic ligand.
A succession of Eu3+ activated Na2Y4(WO4)7 (NYW) red phosphors were synthesised and studied their optical properties in details for white LED, latent fingerprint and plant growth applications. The phosphors crystallised...
