Highly efficient ultra-violet-stimulated green-emitting Tb3+ activated Sr6Y2Al4O15 nanocrystalline materials for advanced single-phase pc-WLED fabrication
Strong green-emission is observed in the new Tb 3+ activated Sr 6 Y 2 Al 4 O 15 nanocrystalline material series fabricated via solution combustion methodology. A monoclinic crystal framework with space group I4/mcm (140) having irregularly shaped grains with an average size of 49 nm is formed. Morph...

composition with 282 nm excitation wavelength. d-d exchanges authorized the presence of the concentration quenching phenomenon. Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy was taken into use to explore the energy band gap which lies in the semiconductor domain. The CIE coordinates lay in the greenish zone of the chromaticity scheme, thus confirming their latent contention in pc-WLED fabrication and other advanced photonic applications.
