Down-conversion of Eu$^{3+}$ doped LiGdF$_4$ (LGF) for increasing the cell efficiency on dye-sensitized Ti $O_2$ solar cells has been studied. The dye sensitized solar cell (DSC) consisting of mesoporous Ti $O_2$ electrode deposited on transparent substrate, an electrolyte containing I$^{[-10]}$ /I$_3$$^{[-10]}$ redox couple, and Pt counter electrode is a promising alternative to the inorganic solar cell. The structure of DSC is basically a sandwich type, viz., FTO glass/Ru-red dye-absorbed Ti $O_2$/iodine electrolyte/sputtered Pt/FTO glass. The cell without down converter had open circuit potential of approximately 0.66 Volt, the short circuit photocurrent density of 1.632 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, and fill factor of about 50 ％ at the excitation wavelength of 550 nm. In addition, 5.6 mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$ incident light intensity beam was used as a light source. From this result, the calculated monochromatic efficiency at the wavelength of 550 nm of this cell was about 9.62 ％. The incident photon to current conversion efficiency (IPCE) of N3 used as a dye in this work is about 80 ％ at around 590 nm and 610 nm, which is the emission spectrum of Eu$^{3+}$ doped LGF, results in efficiency increasing of DSC.C.

Drying-step in sol-gel processing was bypassed by exchanging alcoholic solvent in forsterite alcogel directly with MMA. By in-situ polymerization of the MMA, organic-inorganic nano-composite of PMMA-forsterite was prepared. As porous nature of inorganic networks in the gel was preserved and fixated in the composite, spherical morphology of PMMA was resulted. The PMMA-forsterite composite was optically transparent, machinable,mechanically sustainable, and thermally more stable than pristine PMMA. When doped with $Eu^{+3}$, inorganic moiety in the composite provided site environment that is very different from that in pristine PMMA. Prominent $^{5}D_0$ → $^{7}F_0$ transition at 578 nm, broken degeneracy in $^{5}D_0$ → $^{7}F_1$ and $^{5}D_0$ →$^{7}F_2$ transitions suggested that $Eu^{+3}$ was exclusively doped in the inorganic moiety of the composite, which had lower symmetry than the organic counterpart.

We uniformly coated Eu(III)- and Tb(III)-doped yttrium oxide onto the surface of $SiO_2$ spheres and then characterized them by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction crystallography and UV-Visible absorption. 2D and 3D photoluminescence image map profiles were reported for the core-shell type structure. Red emission peaks of Eu(III) were observed between 580 to 730 nm and assigned to $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_J$ (J = 0 - 4) transitions. The green emission peaks of Tb(III) between 450 and 650 nm were attributed to the $^5D_4{\rightarrow}^7F_J$ (J = 6, 5, 4, 3) transitions. For annealed samples, Eu(III) ions were embedded at a $C_2$ symmetry site in $Y_2O_3$, which was accompanied by an increase in luminescence intensity and redness, while Tb(III) was changed to Tb(IV), which resulted in no green emission.

The blue phosphor, $BaMgAl_{10}O_{17}$:$Eu^{2+}$, showing a blue emission band at about 450 nm were prepared by solid state reaction of BaC $O_3$, A $l_2$ $O_3$, MgO and E $u_2$ $O_3$ with Al $F_3$ as a flux. The thermal quenching of BaMgAl $O_{17}$:E $u^{2+}$ phosphor significantly reduces the intensity of the blue emission. It is reduced by an amount of 50% after heating at around 800$^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr. The red emission in the 580∼720 nm region of $^{5}$ $D_{0}$\longrightarro $w^{7}$ $F_1$ and $^{5}$ $D_{0}$\longrightarro $w^{7}$ $F_2$ transition of $Eu^{3+}$ is produced from the phosphor heated above 1,100$^{\circ}C$. The EPR spectrum also reveals that some part of E $u^{2+}$ ions are oxidized to trivalent ions above 1,100$^{\circ}C$ at around 90 and 140mT. This oxidation evidence is also detected from XANES absorption spectra for $L_{III}$ shell of Eu ions: an absorption peak is at 6,977eV of E $u^{2+}$ and 6,984eV of $Eu^{3+}$. The combined X-ray and neutron data suggests that the new phase of EuMgA $l_{11}$ $O_{19}$ magnetoplumbite structure may be formed by heat treatment.eat treatment.tment.eat treatment.tment.t.

$Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$는 우수한 적색 발광 특성을 가지고 있는 형광체로 최근 고화질 디스플레이에 대한 수요가 증가함에 따라 관련 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 RF 열플라즈마 합성법과 고상법을 이용하여 $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ 적색 형광체를 합성하였으며, 합성 방법에 따른 $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ 적색 형광체의 결정 구조, 미세 구조, 발광 특성의 차이를 XRD, TEM, PL 분석을 통해 비교하였다. 고상법으로 합성된 $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ 적색 형광체의 입자는 약 $10{\sim}20{\mu}m$ 크기를 가지는 반면, RF 열플라즈마 합성법을 통해 합성된 적색 형광체는 반응부는 약 100 nm, 필터부는 약 30 nm의 크기를 갖는 나노 형광체로 확인되었다. 합성된 모든 분말들은 PL 측정결과 611 nm($^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_2$)에서 발광하는 것을 확인하였으며, 결정 크기와 입도가 증가할수록 PL intensity가 증가하였다. 또한, 추가 열처리 공정이 필요 없는 one-step 공정의 RF 열플라즈마 공정을 통해 합성된 $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ 적색 나노 형광체는 고상법으로 합성된 적색 형광체와 비슷한 발광 특성을 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, a yellow phosphor $Sr_3SiO_5:Eu^{2+}$ that emits efficiently at the 450 nm excitation for warm white LED is studied. In addition, the effects of various flux $BaF_2$, $NH_4Cl$ on the emission spectra were investigated. The samples were synthesized through conventional solid state reaction under reducing atmosphere of 95% $N_2$-5% $H_2$ mixture at the high temperature. All phosphors showed a excitation band from 450 nm and broad band emission peaking at region of 580 nm. The optimal concentration of $BaF_2$ flux is 3 wt% for $Sr_3SiO_5$ with doping 0.05mol Eu phosphors fired in a reductive atmosphere. The phosphor showed highest emission peaking at 582 nm.

$Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ and Li-doped $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ thin films have been grown on sapphire substrates using a pulsed laser deposition technique. The thin film phosphors were deposited at a substrate temperature of $600^{\circ}C$ under the oxygen pressure of 100, 200 and 300 mTorr. The films grown under different deposition conditions have been characterized using microstructural and luminescent measurements. The crystallinity and photoluminescence (PL) of the films are highly dependent on the oxygen pressure. The PL brightness data obtained from $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ films grown under optimized conditions have indicated that sapphire is one of the most promising substrate for the growth of high quality $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ thin film red phosphor. In particular, the incorporation of $Li^{+}$ ions into $Y_2O_3$ lattice could induce a remarkable increase of PL. The highest emission intensity was observed with LiF-doped $Y_{1.84}Li_{0.08}Eu_{0.08}O_3(Y_2O_3LiEu)$, whose brightness was increased by a factor of 2.7 in comparison with that of $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ films. This phosphor may promise for application to the flat panel displays.

Eu³⁺-doped BaZrO₃ (BaZrO₃:Eu³⁺) phosphor powders were prepared using a solid-state reaction by changing the molar concentration of Eu³⁺ within the range of 0.5 to 30 mol%. Irrespective of the molar concentration of Eu³⁺ ions, the crystal structures of all the phosphors were cubic. The excitation spectra of BaZrO₃:Eu³⁺ phosphors consisted of an intense broad band centered at 277 nm in the range of 230~320 nm. The emission spectra were composed of a dominant orange band at 595 nm arising from the ⁵D₀→⁷F₁ magnetic dipole transition of Eu³⁺ and two weak emission bands centered at 574 and 615 nm, respectively. As the concentration of Eu³⁺ increased from 0.5 to 10 mol%, the intensities of all the emission bands gradually increased, approached maxima at 10 mol% of Eu³⁺ ions, and then showed a decreasing tendency with further increase in the Eu³⁺ ions due to the concentration quenching. The critical distance between neighboring Eu³⁺ ions for concentration quenching was calculated to be 11.21 Å, indicating that dipole-dipole interaction was the main mechanism of concentration quenching of BaZrO₃:Eu³⁺ phosphors. The results suggest that the orange emission intensity can be modulated by doping the appropriate concentration of Eu³⁺ ions.

$Eu^{3+}$와 $Pr^{3+}$이 첨가된 $SrTiO_3$형광체를 고상반응법으로 제조하였다. $SrTiO_3:Pr$형광체는 $^3P_J(J=0,1,2){\rightarrow}^3H_4$에 의한 490nm 부근의 녹색발광과 $^1D_2{\rightarrow}^3H_4$에 의한 618nm 의 적색발광이 동시에 나타났다. $SrTiO_3:Eu$형광체는 $SrTiO_3:Pr$형광체와 달리 $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_1$에 의한 583nm와 $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_2$에 의한 610nm의 적색발광만 각각 관찰되었다. $SrTiO_3$의 모체에서 $Eu^{3+}$는 inversion sysmmetry를 가짐으로써 610nm의 electric dipole transition 보다는 583nm의 magnetic dipole transition이 강하게 일어났다.

A borate compound was adopted as new host material for $EU^{3+}$ activator. The $Eu^{3+}-doped\;YCa_3(GaO)_3(BO_3)_4$ (YCGB) phosphors were successfully synthesized. Also, their photoluminescence properties under the excitation of UV ray were measured. In the XRD patterns of the synthesized powders, most peaks were well-matched to a gaudefroyite phase. The emission of $Eu^{3+}$ in YCGB consists of a strong peak centered at 622 nm, which is attributed to $^5D_O-^7F_2$ transition of $Eu^{3+}$ and several weak peaks at near the wavelength. Optimum $Eu^{3+}$ concentration of the red phosphor under the excitation with the wavelength of 395 nm was about 75 mol%. This indicates that the red phosphor has a relatively higher critical concentration than that of the other $Eu^{3+}-doped$ phosphors. The dominant interaction character of $Eu^{3+}$ might be dipole-dipole interaction.
