MgAl2O4:Eu3+ red-light emitting powder phosphor was prepared at temperature as low as 500 oC within a few minutes by using the combustion route. The prepared powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectrometry. The luminescence of Eu3+-activated MgAl2O4 shows a strong red emission dominant peak around 611 nm, which can be attributed to the 5D0-7F2 transition of Eu3+ ions from the synthesized phosphor particles under excitation (394 nm). Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements at the X-band showed that no signal could be attributed to Eu2+ ions in MgAl2O4.

희토류 발광 물질은 4f 껍질에 위치하는 전자의 독특한 특성 때문에 발광 소자와 디스플레이에 그 응용성을 확장하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고효율의 적색과 주황색 형광체를 합성하기 위하여 모체 격자 CaNb2O6에 희토류 이온인 유로퓸과 사마륨을 치환 고용하여 최적의 합성 조건을 조사하였다. Ca1-1.5xNb2O6:REx3+ (RE=Eu, Sm) 형광체 분말 시료는 고상반응법을 사용하여 활성제 이온인 Eu3+와 Sm3+의 농도비를 0, 0.01, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 mol 로 변화시키면서 합성하였다. 초기 물질 CaO, Nb2O5, Eu2O3와 Sm2O3을 화학 적량으로 측정하고, 400 rpm의 속도로 24시간 밀링 작업을 수행한 후에, 건조기 $60^{\circ}C$에서 28시간 건조하고, 시료를 막자 사발에서 갈아 세라믹 도가니에 담아 튜브형 전기로에서 분당 $5^{\circ}C$의 비율로 승온시켜 $500^{\circ}C$에서 5시간 동안 하소와 $1,100^{\circ}C$에서 6시간 소결하여 합성하였다. Eu3+가 도핑된 경우에, 발광 스펙트럼은 Eu3+ 이온의 농도비에 관계없이 강한 적색 발광 스펙트럼이 616 nm에서 관측되었다. 이외에도, 596 nm와 708 nm에서 상대적으로 발광 세기가 약한 주황색 발광과 적색 발광 신호가 검출되었으며, 541 nm에서는 매우 약한 녹색스펙트럼이 관측되었다. Eu3+ 이온의 농도비에 0.01 mol에서 0.15 mol로 증가함에 따라 주발광 신호의 세기는 점점 증가하였으며, 0.15 mol에서 최대 발광 세기를 나타내었다. Eu3+ 이온의 농도비가 0.20 mol 로 더욱 증가함에 따라 주 피크의 세기는 농도 소강 현상에 의하여 현저히 감소함을 보였다. 한편, 주된 흡광 스펙트럼은 279 nm에서 나타났는데, 이것은 전하전달밴드 신호이다. Sm3+가 도핑된 형광체 분말의 발광 스펙트럼은 모든 시료의 경우에 613 nm에서 강한 적주황색 발광 스펙트럼이 관측되었고, 상대적으로 세기가 약한 570 nm와 660 nm에 피크를 갖는 황색과 적색 발광 스펙트럼이 발생하였다. 흡광과 발광 스펙트럼의 최대 세기는 0.05 mol에서 나타났으며, Sm3+ 이온의 농도비가 더욱 증가함에 따라 흡광과 발광 세기는 급격하게 감소하였다.

The tendency of the miximum brightness of $Y_2$O$_3$:Eu phosphor with various activator concentration, by different surface treatment methods as well as different exciting energies were investigated. The surface treatment methods were the adsorption method used $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$powder prepared emulsion-drying process and the precipitation method used FeSO$_4$/ethanol. Eu concentration of maximum brightness of $Y_2$O$_3$:Eu phosphor prepared by solid-solid state was changed with various exciting energies. The concentrations were 0.02 mol at VUV(147 nm) as well as 400 V and 0.03 mol at 5 kV. The phosphor treated both by adsorption method and precipitation method showed decreasing luminescent intensity with increasing amount of $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$, and the methods are chosen by exciting energy. Adsorption method was effective in a low voltage and VUV(147nm) region, and precipitation method was effective in the high voltage region.

Significant research interest in the growth and characterization of $Y_2$O$_3$：Eu$^{3+}$ thin films has been shown over the last few years because of the promise for applications of display devices. Although an Eu-doped oxysulfide (Eu： $Y_2$O$_2$S) which has an efficiency of 13％ has been used for a traditional cathode ray tube (CRT) red phosphor, the sulfide system is known to degrade rapidly under the high current densities needed for field-emission display (FED) technology.

A novel ceramic synthesis technique, combustion synthesis, is explored to produce a orange-emitting $SnO_{2}:Eu^{3+}$ phosphors. This technique involves a reaction of metal salts with a citric acid as an organic fuel. The variation of the ratio of citric acid to metal introduces change in reaction temperature and atmosphere of the combustion reaction, which in turn influences crystallinity and luminescence properties of the final products seriously. And, the heat treatment of the as-synthesized product increases its luminescence intensity. Especially, the samples treated at above $1100^{\circ}C$ show a orange-emission peak, which is attributed to the formation of single phase and well-crystallized $SnO_{2}:Eu$ oxides in the rutile structure

The transition of europium-doped gadolinium oxide phosphor to gadolinium borate phosphor with the concentration of boron in the spray pyrolysis was investigated. The particles prepared from spray solution below 10 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor had crystal structure of $Gd_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor, in which the crystallinity of the particles decreased with increasing the boron concentration. A single phase $GdBO_3:Eu$ phosphor particles were prepared from spray solution above 50 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor. The phosphor particles prepared from spray solution with 20 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor had no XRD peaks of $Gd_2O_3:Eu$ and $GdBO_3:Eu$ Therefore the phosphor particles prepared from spray solution with 20 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor had the lowest photoluminescence intensity under ultraviolet and vacuum ultraviolet. $GdBO_3:Eu$ and $Gd_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles prepared from spray solutions with proper concentrations of boric acid had good photoluminescence intensity under vacuum ultraviolet. The morphology of the phosphor particles were strongly affected by the concentrations of boric acid added into spray solution.

Eu doped $Y_2$ $O_3$ nanoparticles were prepared with the solvothermal synthesis using the ethyleneglycol solvent at 20$0^{\circ}C$ for 3-5 h and then annealed in air at 1000-140$0^{\circ}C$ for 2-4 h. The X-ray diffraction pattern of annealed crystals at 100$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 h could be indexed as pure cubic cell of $Y_2$ $O_3$ phase with lattice parameters a=10.5856 $\AA$ which is very close to the reported data (JCPDS Card File, 41-1105 a=10.6041 $\AA$). Average size of prepared phosphor particles have about 100 nm, which were spherical morphology. The phosphor particle sizes decreased and the emission intensity increased at the annealing temperature. Though PL spectrum analysis, the 3% Eu doped $Y_{2-x}$ $O_3$:E $u_{x}$ $^{3+}$(x=0.06) phosphor showed the excitation spectrum at 250 nm wavelength and the maximum emission spectrum at 611 nm wavelength.

$Y_2O_2S:Eu$ phosphors with fine particle have been synthesized by citric acid-gel method. In this method, $Na_2S_2O_3$ was added to $Y_2O_3S:Eu$ precursor, then the mixture was fired at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 3h in $S_2$ atmosphere. When the $Y_2O_3S:Eu$ precursor was pre-annealed at $400{\sim}700^{\circ}C$ before the firing of the mixture, the fine particles with a diameter of around 1 ${\mu}m$ were obtained after the firing. The phosphor pre-annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ showed a luminance and CIE color coordinates of 2350 $cd/m^2$ and (0.61, 0.37), respectively, at under excitation of 3 kV and $60{\mu}A/cm^2$.
