[ $Sr_xCa_{(1-x)}TiO_3$ ] red phosphors doped with Pr(0.13 mol%) and Al(0.23 mol%) were synthesized by solid state reaction method. Change of crystal structure occurred in $Sr_xCa_{(1-x)}TiO_3:Pr,Al$ phosphors with increasing value of x. Green and red luminescence were observed from $SrTiO_3:Pr,Al$ phosphors at low temperature. However, only red luminescence in the case of $CaTiO_3:Pr,Al$ phosphors was measured at low temperature. The main cause of green luminescence was explained by the bandgap reduction.

In this present study, the luminescence characteristics and mechanism of energy $CaTiO_3$:Pr phosphor were studied using disk specimens sintered at various temperatures and envirenment. A single-phase $CaTiO_3$:Pr was synthesized by sintering above 140$0^{\circ}C$ and its crystal structure was found to be perovskite orthorhombic. A dominant peak around 360 nm and a broad peak around 395 nm were observed in the PLE(Photoluminescence Excitation) spectrum of $CaTiO_3$:Pr with fixed emission wavelength at 612 nm, the decay time of 360 nm excitation was found to be longer than that of 395 nm excitation. From this result, it is assumed that the free carrier excited to 360 nm is transferred to 395 nm energy level. Therefore, the decrease in 395 nm intensity observed in CaTiO$_3$:Pr specimens sintered in Ar gas environment induced shorter decay time and improved CL luminescence.

적색 CaTiO$_3$:Pr 형광체 막을 졸-겔법으로 제조하고 형광체의 결정상 및 발광특성에 미치는 열처리 조건 및 Pr 첨가량의 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. CaTiO$_3$:Pr sol로부터 제조된 CaTiO$_3$:Pr 분말은 30~60nm 크기의 입자들이 0.3~0.5$mu extrm{m}$ 크기로 응집된 상태를 나타내었으며, 한편 sol을 borosilicate 기판 위에 4000rpm의 속도로 3회 스핀 코팅하고 열처리하였을 경우 두께 1.2$\mu\textrm{m}$의 CaTiO$_3$:Pr 박막이 형성되었다. CaTiO$_3$:Pr gel 분말을 여러 온도에서 열처리한 경우, $600^{\circ}C$ 이하에서는 비정질이지만, 온도가 증가하면서 erovskite 결정상이 생성되기 시작하여 90$0^{\circ}C$에서는 우수한 perovskite 결정상이 발달되었다. 반면, 박막의 경우에는 80$0^{\circ}C$의 열처리 온도에서는 결정성이 우수한 perovskite 상이 관찰되었으며 이러한 온도는 기존의 분말법의 소결온도에 비하여 300~40$0^{\circ}C$나 낮은 것이다. 0.2 mol% Pr이 첨가되고 90$0^{\circ}C$로 열처리된 분말시편은 최적의 Photoluminescence (PL) 특성을 나타낸 반면, 박막의 경우에는 80$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리된 시편이 최적의 PL 특성을 나타내었다. 제조된 CaTiO$_3$:Pr 박막에 대하여 Cathodoluminescence (CL) 분석을 행한 결과, 6100$\AA$에서 폭이 좁고 강도가 큰 스펙트럼을 나타냄으로서, 본 실험에서 제조된 박막이 FED(field emission display)등의 적색형광체로 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

CaTiO₃:Pr phosphor thin films were prepared on Si(100), ZnO/glass, Corning glass and ITO/glass by rf magnetron reactive sputtering. The effects of deposition parameters such as oxygen partial pressure, substrate temperature, and annealing conditions on crystallinity and compositional variation of the films were investigated. PL spectra of CaTiO₃:Pr phosphor thin films exhibited red regime peaking at 613 nm and enhanced PL intensity was observed for the film annealed in vacuum atmosphere as compared to the deposit annealed in N₂ environment.

In the present study, the luminescence characteristics and the effect of conductivity on cathodoluminescene of CaTiO$_3$:Pr was studied using dick specimens sintered at various temperatures and atmosphere. As a sintering temperature was increased from 1100 to 1400 $^{\circ}C$, conductivity of CaTiO$_3$:Pr phosphor was improved and CL brightness was also increased about four times and decay times was reduced from 0.29 to 0.21 msec. And all samples prepared in Ar showed high conductivity, CL brightness and short decay time in comparison with those sintered in air.

Sr$_{(1-x)}$Ca$_{x}$TiO$_3$: Pr$^{3+}$ , Ga$^{3+}$ (0$\leq$x$\leq$1) 형광체의 여기 및 발광 스펙트럼과 분광 반사율을 조사하여 발광 메커니즘을 규명하고자 하였다. 발광 스펙트럼에서는 611~614nm 사이에서 peak을 가지는 하나의 적색 발광 밴드가 관찰되었으며, 조성에 따라 발광밴드의 모양이 달랐다. 이는 조성에 따른 모체의 결정 구조 변화 때문으로 생각된다. 여기 스펙트럼 끝단과 분광 반사율 스펙트럼의 흡수단은 서로 일치하였으며, 이 결과로부터 모체에 흡수된 에너지가 Pr$^{3+}$ 에 전달되어 적색광을 방출하는 것이 주된 메커니즘으로 생각된다. 한편 120$0^{\circ}C$에서 4시간동안 열처리하여 합성한 Sr$_{0.4}$Ca$_{0.6}$TiO$_3$:(0.1 mol%)Pr$^{3+}$ , (0.2 mol%)Ga$^{3+}$ 는 우수한 색순도와 휘도를 나타내었다.다.

The phosphor $CaTiO_3:Pr^{3+}$ attracts much attention as a low-voltage red phosphor because of its good chromaticity and intrinsic conductivity. The addition of Ga into this CaTiO₃:Pr led the luminance intensity to greatly enhance without the change of the wavelength for the electronic transition and the peak shape of it. The increase of the recombination rate of electron-hole pairs through the Ga ion doping, which was expected to play a role of a hole-trap center, is proposed to be one of the reasons for the enhancement of the cathodoluminescence intensity.
