Abstract

$Dy^{3+}-(or Tm^{3+}-)$ doped $Ga_2O_3 \;and\; ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphors were prepared using the solid state reaction method to investigate their photoluminescent characteristics. Under 254 nm excitation, $Dy^{3+}-doped Ga2_O_3$ exhibited two emission bands of 460~505nm and 570~600nm. On the other hand, $Dy^{3+}-(or Tm^{3+}-)$ doped $ZnGa_2O_4 $phosphors exhibited a broad-band emission extending from 330 nm to 610 nm, peaking at about 430 nm(or 370 nm). In this study, an emission peak shift of nealy 50 nm towards longer wavelength region was observed with $Dy^{3+}$ doping in the $ZnGa_2O_4 $.
