“…As the Eu 2+ ion concentration increases, the shorter wavelength band shows blue-shift, whereas the longer wavelength band shows red-shift. This can be explained based on two aspects: the changing of covalence and variation of the crystal field strength when 0.1 mol of Mg 2+ ions are co-doped into the host lattice [7][8][9]13].…”

“…The Eu 2+ and Mn 2+ co-doped quaternary alkaline earth silicate single-phase phosphor emits warm white light under ultraviolet excitation [5,6]. Eu 2+ (4f 7 ) ion shows a parity-allowed 4f-5d emission varying from ultraviolet to red depending on the host lattice in terms of site size, site symmetry and its coordination number [7,8]. The emission color of Eu 2+ can be controlled by changing the crystal field or the covalence in the host [7].…”

“…In addition, Eu 2+ ions in the host lattice emit UV to red light under UV irradiation. Therefore, Eu 2+ is an attractive phosphor, especially in the blue region, for display technology [10][11].…”
We investigate the influence of the ambient gas during thermal annealing on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of europium compound thin films on Si substrates. The films were deposited by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering and subsequently annealed in N 2 or O 2 ambient gas by rapid thermal annealing (RTA). The results of X-ray diffraction indicate that the resulting europium compound annealed in N 2 ambient have several silicate phases such as EuSiO 3 and Eu 2 SiO 4 compared to those annealed in O 2 ambient. The spectral results revealed that a broad luminescence associated with Eu 2+ ions, with a maximum intensity at 600 nm and a FWHM of 110 nm, was observed from the thin film annealed at 1000°C in N 2 ambient. However, a series of narrow PL spectra from Eu 3+ ions were observed from the film annealed in O 2 ambient.
“…Silicate materials have drawn a great amount of attention with their application in display and lighting systems [1][2][3][4][5]. Diopside CaMgSi 2 O 6 is one of the pyroxene minerals known as a good bioactive material [6].…”
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.
