“…Still, drawbacks like high cost and dissolution in water restrict the extent and depth of application to a certain degree. Up to now, existing ML materials are mostly long-lasting phosphors, such as SrAl 2 O 4 :Eu [4], BaSi 2 O 2 N 2 :Eu [10], CaAl 2 Si 2 O 8 :Eu [11], (Ca,Ba)TiO 3 :Pr [12] etc. Stannate phosphors as promising long-lasting phosphors demonstrated physical and chemical stability and more convenient synthesis process [13,14], some of which, such as Sr 2 SnO 4 :Sm 3þ , showed EML property though it is poor.…”
