Recently, the grain boundary diffusion process (GBDP), involving heavy rare-earth elements such as Dy and Tb, has been widely used to enhance the coercivity of Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets. For example, a Dy compound is coated onto the surface of Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets, and then the magnets are heat treated. Subsequently, Dy diffuses into the grain boundaries of Nd-Fe-B magnets, forming Dy-Fe-B or Nd-Dy-Fe-B. The dip-coating process is also used widely instead of the GBDP. However, it is quite hard to control the thickness uniformity using dip coating. In this study, first, a $DyF_3$ paste is fabricated using $DyF_3$ powder. Subsequently, the fabricated $DyF_3$ paste is homogeneously coated onto the surface of a Nd-Fe-B sintered magnet. The magnet is then subjected to GBDP to enhance its coercivity. The weight ratio of binder and $DyF_3$ powder is controlled, and we find that the coercivity enhances with decreasing binder content. In addition, the maximum coercivity is obtained with the paste containing 70 wt% of $DyF_3$ powder.

In order to increase the coercivity of (Nd, Dy)-Fe-B sintered magnets without much reduction of remanence, small amount of Dy compounds such as $Dy_2O_3$ and $DyF_3$ was mixed with (Nd, Dy)-Fe-B powder. After mixing, the coercivity of (Nd, Dy)-Fe-B sintered magnets apparently increased with the increase of Dy compound in the mixture. Addition of $DyF_3$ was more effective than $Dy_2O_3$ for the improvement of coercivity. Reduction of the remanence by the addition of Dy compound, however, was larger than expected mostly due to unresolved coarse Dy compound in the magnet. EPMA analysis revealed that Dy was diffused throughout the grains in the magnet mixed with $DyF_3$ whereas Dy was rather concentrated around grain boundaries in the magnet mixed with $Dy_2O_3$.

$Dy^{3+}$ 이온이 도핑된 $BaMoO_4$ 형광체 분말을 고상반응법으로 합성하였으며, 형광체의 결정 구조, 입자의 형상과 크기, 흡광과 발광 특성을 조사하였다. 모든 형광체 분말의 결정 구조는 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비에 관계없이 주 회절 피크 (112)를 갖는 정방 정계이었다. $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비가 증가함에 따라 결정 입자는 용해되면서 큰 덩어리 형태의 결정 입자를 형성하였다. 흡광 스펙트럼은 293 nm에 피크를 갖는 전하 전달 밴드와 230~320 nm 영역에서 상대적으로 세기가 약한 다수의 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 전이 신호로 구성되었다. 발광 스펙트럼의 경우에 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{11/2}$와 $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{9/2}$ 전이에 의한 666 nm와 754 nm에 피크를 갖는 적색 발광의 세기는 미약하였고, $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{15/2}$와 $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{13/2}$ 전이에 의한 각각 486 nm와 577 nm에 피크를 갖는 청색과 황색 발광의 세기는 상대적으로 매우 컸다. 실험 결과는 $Dy^{3+}$의 황색과 청색의 발광 세기 비를 제어함으로써 백색 발광을 구현할 수 있음을 제시한다.

New white-light-emitting $SrSnO_3:Dy^{3+}$ phosphors were prepared using different concentrations of $Dy^{3+}$ ions via a solid-state reaction. The phase structure, luminescence, and morphological properties of the synthesized phosphors were investigated using X-ray diffraction analysis, fluorescence spectrophotometry, and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. All the synthesized phosphors crystallized in an orthorhombic phase with a major (020) diffraction peak, irrespective of the concentration of $Dy^{3+}$ ions. The excitation spectra were composed of a broad band centered at 298 nm, ascribed to the $O^2-Dy^{3+}$ charge transfer band and five weak bands in the range of 350~500 nm. The emission spectra of $SrSnO_3:Dy^{3+}$ phosphors consisted of three bands centered at 485, 577, and 665 nm, corresponding to the $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{15/2}$, $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{13/2}$, and $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{11/2}$ transitions of $Dy^{3+}$, respectively. As the $Dy^{3+}$ concentration increased from 1 to 15 mol%, the intensities of all the emission bands gradually increased, reached maxima at 15 mol% of $Dy^{3+}$ ions, and then decreased rapidly at 20 mol% due to concentration quenching. The critical distance between neighboring $Dy^{3+}$ ions for concentration quenching was calculated to be $9.4{\AA}$. The optimal white light emission by the $SrSnO_3:Dy^{3+}$ phosphors was obtained when the $Dy^{3+}$ concentration was 15 mol%.

최근에 디스프로슘 이온이 도핑된 형광체의 백색 발광 현상 때문에 백색 발광 소재의 제조에 관한 연구가 상당한 관심을 끌고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $Eu^{3+}$와 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비를 변화시키면서 $BaNb_2O_6:RE^{3+}$ (RE=Eu, Dy) 형광체 분말을 합성한 결과를 보고한다. 특히 활성제 이온인 $Eu^{3+}$와 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비에 따른 $BaNb_2O_6$ 형광체 분말의 결정 구조, 입자의 모양과 크기, 흡광과 발광 스펙트럼의 변화를 관측하였고, 최적의 합성 조건을 제시하고자 한다. 파장 393 nm로 여기 시킨 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비에 따른 $BaNb_2O_6$ 형광체 분말의 발광 스펙트럼은 580 nm에 주 피크를 갖는 황색 스펙트럼이 관측되었다. 이 발광 신호는 $^4F_{9/2}-^6H_{13/2}$ 전이 신호이다. $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비가 0 mol인 경우에는 발광 신호가 검출되지 않았다. $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비가 0.10 mol일 때 발광 피크의 세기는 최대이었으며, $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비가 더욱 증가함에 따라 발광 스펙트럼의 세기는 계속 증가하지 않고 갑자기 감소하기 시작하였다. 이것은 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비가 임계값을 초과하여 더욱 증가하면 모체 격자들 사이에 치환 고용되어 있는 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온들 사이의 거리가 더욱 가까워져서 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온들이 서로 용이하게 결합함으로써 내부 산란에 의하여 발광의 세기가 감소함을 의미한다. 흡광 스펙트럼의 경우에, $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 몰 비가 0.01 mol일때 형광체 분말은 두 종류의 흡광 스펙트럼을 나타내었다. 첫째는 $Dy^{3+}$ 양이온과 $O^{2-}$ 음이온들 사이에 발생한 전하 전달 밴드에 의해 발생하는 310 nm를 정점으로 하여 280~340 nm 영역에 걸쳐서 광범위하게 분포하는 흡광 신호가 관측되었으며, 둘째는 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 $4f^9$ 전자 배열 내에서 발생하는 4f-4f 전이 신호로서, 이것은 350~500 nm 영역에 걸쳐서 비교적 밴드폭이 좁은 다수의 흡광 신호가 나타났다. 본 실험에서는 다섯 개의 피크를 갖는 흡광 신호가 검출되었는데, 이중에서 제일 강한 주 피크인 393 nm의 흡수 파장은 모체 격자 내에 있는 $Dy^{3+}$ 이온의 바닥 상태인 $^6H_{15/2}$ 준위에서 여기 상태인 $^4F_{7/2}$ 인 에너지 준위로 전이하면서 발생한 신호이며, 이에 비하여 상대적으로 흡광 세기가 약한 370, 432, 458, 370 nm의 흡수 파장이 관측되었다.

Effect of Cu and $DyF_3$ powder mixing with Cu-free (Nd, Dy)-Fe-B jet-milled powder on the magnetic properties of sintered magnets was investigated. The coercivity of a magnet prepared from the Cu-free (Nd, Dy)-Fe-B powder was about 10 kOe even though the alloy powder already contained some Dy (3.5 wt%). When small copper powder was blended, however, the coercivity of the magnet increased almost 100%, exhibiting about 20 kOe. On the contrary, the coercivity enhancement was moderate, about 4 kOe, when dysprosium content in the sintered magnet was simply increased to 4.9 wt% by the addition of small $DyF_3$3 powder.

Dy³⁺- and Eu³⁺-codoped BaWO₄ phosphors for white light-emitting diode were synthesized with different activator ions via a solid-state reaction process. The structural, morphological, and optical properties of the BaWO₄:Dy³⁺,Eu³⁺ phosphors were investigated as a function of Eu³⁺ concentration at a fixed concentration of Dy³⁺ ions. XRD patterns exhibited that all the synthesized phosphors had a tetragonal system, irrespective of the concentrations of Dy³⁺ and Eu³⁺ ions. The excitation spectra of the synthesized phosphors were composed of three intense bands centered at 251, 355, and 393 nm and several weak peaks. For the BaWO₄:Dy³⁺,Eu³⁺ phosphors synthesized with 1 mol% of Eu³⁺, the emission spectra under ultraviolet excitation at 393 nm showed two strong blue and yellow bands at 485 and 577 nm corresponding to the ⁴F_9/2⁶H_15/2 and ⁴F_9/2⁶H_13/2 transitions of Dy³⁺ ions, respectively and several weak bands in the range of 600-700 nm resulting from the 4f transitions of Eu³⁺ ions. As the concentration of Eu³⁺ ions increased, intensities of the blue and yellow emission bands gradually decreased while those of the red emissions increased rapidly and the energy transfer efficiency from Dy³⁺ to Eu³⁺ ions was 95.3% at 20 mol% of Eu³⁺. The optimum white light emission with x=0.363, y=0.357 CIE 1931 chromaticity coordinates was obtained for the sample doped with 5 mol% Dy³⁺ and 1 mol% of Eu³⁺.

Dy $L_3$-edge XANES and EXAFS spectra of chalcogenide Ge-As-S glass doped with ca. 0.2 wt% dysprosium have been investigated along with some reference Dy-containing crystals. Amplitude of the white-line peak in XANES spectrum of the glass sample turns out to be stronger than that of other reference crystals, i.e., $DY_2S_3,\;Dy_2O_3\;and\;DyBr_3$. It has been verified from the Dy $L_3$-edge EXAFS spectra that a central Dy atom is surrounded by $6.7{\pm}0.5$ sulfur atoms in its first coordination shell in the Ge-As-S glass, which is relatively smaller than 7.5 of the $Dy_2S_3$ crystal. Averaged Dy-S inter-atomic-distance of the glass ($2.78{\pm}0.01{\AA}$) also turns out to be somewhat shorter than that of the $Dy_2S_3$ crystal ($2.82{\pm}0.01{\AA}$). Such nanostructural changes occurring at Dy atoms imply there being stronger covalency of Dy-S chemical bonds in the Ge-As-S glass than in the crystal counterpart. The enhanced covalency in the nanostructural environment of $Dy^{3+}$ ions inside the glass would then be responsible for optical characteristics of the $4f{\leftrightarrow}4f$ transitions of the dopants, i.e., increase of oscillator strengths and spontaneous radiative transition probabilities.

A series of $CaNb_2O_6:Dy^{3+}$, $CaNb_2O_6$:$Eu^{3+}$ and $CaNb_2O_6:Dy^{3+}$, $Eu^{3+}$ phosphors were prepared by solid-state reaction process. The effects of activator ions on the structural, morphological and optical properties of the phosphor particles were investigated. XRD patterns showed that all the phosphors had an orthorhombic system with a main (131) diffraction peak. For the $Dy^{3+}$-doped $CaNb_2O_6$ phosphor powders, the excitation spectra consisted of one broad band centered at 267 nm in the range of 210-310 nm and three weak peaks; the main emission band showed an intense yellow band at 575 nm that corresponded to the $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{13/2}$ transition of $Dy^{3+}$ ions. For the $Eu^{3+}$-doped $CaNb_2O_6$ phosphor, the emission spectra under ultraviolet excitation at 263 nm exhibited one strong reddish-orange band centered at 612 nm and four weak bands at 536, 593, 650, and 705 nm. For the $Dy^{3+}$ and $Eu^{3+}$-codoped $CaNb_2O_6$ phosphor powders, blue and yellow emission bands due to the $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{15/2}$ and $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{13/2}$ transitions of $Dy^{3+}$ ions and a main reddish-orange emission line at 612 nm resulting from the $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_2$ transition of $Eu^{3+}$ ions were observed. As the concentration of $Eu^{3+}$ ions increased from 1 mol% to 10 mol%, the intensities of the emissions due to $Dy^{3+}$ ions rapidly decreased, while those of the emission bands originating from the $Eu^{3+}$ ions gradually increased, reached maxima at 10 mol%, and then slightly decreased at 15 mol% of $Eu^{3+}$. These results indicate that white light emission can be achieved by modulating the concentrations of the $Eu^{3+}$ ions incorporated into the $Dy^{3+}$-doped $CaNb_2O_6$ host lattice.

The effects of activator ion on the structural, morphological, and optical properties of $LaNbO_4:RE^{3+}$ (RE = Dy, Dy/Sm, Sm) phosphors were investigated. X-ray diffraction patterns exhibited that all the phosphors showed a monoclinic system with a main (112) diffraction peak, irrespective of the concentration and type of activator ions. The grain size showed a slightly decreasing tendency as the concentration of $Sm^{3+}$ ions increased. The excitation spectra of the $LaNbO_4:Dy^{3+}$, $Sm^{3+}$ phosphor powders consisted of a strong charge transfer band centered at 259 nm in the range of 220-290 nm and five weak peaks. The emission spectra of the $La_{0.95}NbO_4$:5 mol% $Dy^{3+}$ phosphors exhibited two intense yellow and blue bands centered at 575 nm and 479 nm respectively, which resulted from the $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{13/2}$ and $^4F_{9/2}{\rightarrow}^6H_{15/2}$ transitions of $Dy^{3+}$. As the concentration of $Sm^{3+}$ was increased, the intensity of the yellow emission band was gradually decreased, while those of orange and red emission bands centered at 604 and 646 nm began to appear and reached maxima at 5 mol%, and then decreased rapidly with further increases in the $Sm^{3+}$ concentration. These results indicated that white light emission could be realized by controlling the concentrations of the $Dy^{3+}$ and $Sm^{3+}$ ions incorporated into the $LaNbO_4$ host crystal.
