Abstract

The Ce3+/Eu2+ coactivated Sr3B2O6 phosphors exhibit varied hues from blue through white and eventually to yellow-orange by resonance-type energy transfer from Ce3+ to Eu2+ and tuning the relative proportion of Ce3+/Eu2+ properly. The authors have demonstrated that electric dipole-dipole interaction dominates the energy transfer mechanism in Sr3B2O6:Ce3+,Eu2+ phosphor, and the critical distance of energy transfer has been estimated to be about 30 Å by both spectral overlap and concentration quenching methods. They have also shown that under the excitation of UV radiation, white light is generated by coupling 434 and 574 nm emission bands attributed to Ce3+ and Eu2+ radiations, respectively.
