Abstract: The crystal structure and photoluminescence properties of Eu2+ doped Li2Ca0.7Sr0.3SiO4 phosphors were investigated. The Li2Ca0.7Sr0.3SiO4 is not an alloy between the tetragonal Li2CaSiO4 and hexagonal Li2SrSiO4 but crystallizes in orthorhombic structure similar to Li2(CaSr)SiO4. Photoluminescence properties of the Li2Ca0.7Sr0.3SiO4:Eu2+ phosphors, summarized in effective excitation in the UV region, strong emission in the blue light range (with a peak at 427nm) and the CIE chromaticity coordinate (0.154, 0.038), indicate this phosphor has great potential in UV-chip pumped white LEDs. White light output by mixing the Li2Ca0.7Sr0.3SiO4:Eu2+ blue and Li2SrSiO4:Eu2+ yellow phosphor was attempted. With proper molar ratio of these two compound phosphors, warm white light with CIE chromaticity coordinate close to that of the nature white light (0.33, 0.33) and color temperature about 5000K was obtained. The results indicated that the Li2Ca0.7Sr0.3SiO4:Eu2+ may become an important phosphor candidate for ultra-violet chip pumped and multi-phosphors converted white LEDs. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
