New red phosphors Na3YSi2O7:Eu3+ was prepared by a conventional solid-state reaction. This silicate phosphor can be efficiently excited by near UV light, yielding an intense red emission. Under the excitation of near UV light, the emission intensity is higher than that of a commercial red phosphor Y2O2S:Eu3+.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
