The Role of Bismuth on the Best Red Light Emitting Nanophosphors

Abstract: This paper explains the role of bismuth in the luminescence enhancement of Y2O3 :Eu nanophosphors prepared by Combustion method. Bi ions serve as effective sensitizers for visible emitting rare earths for Light Emitting Diodes. From the X-ray diffraction studies, bismuth co-activated nanophosphors exhibit an early crystallization. Bismuth incorporation not only results in the luminescence enhancement at 612 nm, due to 5D0 to 7F2 transition but also reduces the processing temperature for intense photoemission.Published By: Blue Eyes Intelligence Engineering and Sciences Publication (BEIESP) © Copyright: All rights reserved
