Abstract
(Sr1 x Eu x 3Al2O6 red phosphor was synthesized by co-precipitation with ammonium bicarbonate as precipitant. X-ray diffraction result indicated the prepared samples have standard crystal structure of Sr3 Al2O6 , and co-precipitation has lower crystallization temperature than solid state reaction. Scanning electron microscope image revealed the real morphology and particle size of obtained phosphors with weak agglomeration. Red emission of Eu2+ centers was shown at peak of 620nm
under excitation with wavelength of 440~ 480 nmnm, which fitted well with GaN blue chip of white LEDs. As result, the luminescence property of obtained (Sr1 x Eu x 3Al2O6 phosphor was improved obviously prepared by co-precipitation comparing with solid-state reaction..
