High color purity red phosphors of Ca 1À3/2x Eu x TiO 3 and Ca 1À2x Eu x Li x TiO 3 (0 < x 0.3) are synthesized via a solidstate reaction method. The red emission photoluminescence intensity and color purity are enhanced by the incorporation of Li + into CaTiO 3 :Eu 3+ . The Li + doping increases the emission probability from 5 D 0 state, increases photoluminescence intensity by 1.6 times, increases color purity to 92.1%, and shortens the decay time. With increasing Eu 3+ and Li + content, the color coordinates approach the ideal red chromaticity values, coming closer than commercial Y 2 O 2 S:Eu 3+ red phosphor.
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.
