RESUMEN

With an intend to develop white light emitting phosphor, for w-LED application, a series of dysprosium (Dy3+) doped novel Na3Ba2LaNb10O30 phosphors were prepared using solid state reaction technique at 1300 °C. Their structural, morphological and vibrational spectroscopic analysis was performed. We illustrate the luminescence characteristics of the prepared phosphors for various Dy3+ ion doping concentration. The XRD analysis demonstrates that the prepared phosphors were in single phase, and of tetragonal tungsten bronze structure of the P4bm space group. The FE-SEM image reveals that the prepared phosphors contained irregular shaped both nano and micro particles. Under near-ultraviolet (n-UV) irradiation at 387 nm, the photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra shows three characteristic bands at 481 nm (blue), 575 nm (yellow) and 666 nm (red). Obtained optimized Dy3+ ion concentration for the prepared sample is 7.0 mol%, beyond which the concentration quenching begins. Bonding between Dy-O is covalent in nature as confirmed by bonding parameters and the Dexter theory revealed that the energy transfer among Dy3+ ions is dipole-diploe interaction. CIE chromaticity coordinates, CCT and color purity confirms the formation of warm white light emitting phosphors. Lifetime analysis demonstrates the longer decay time in the phosphors. The Internal Quantum Yield (IQE) and brightness (B) for the optimised phosphor is calculated as 45.35% and 11.41% respectively, which makes it a suitable phosphor for w-LED.
