The invention relates to a low temperature preparation method of
yttrium aluminum garnet
rare earth phosphor powder. The
rare earth phosphor powder is formed by material expressed by a general formula Y3-xMxAl5-yGayO12, wherein M is Ce or Tb or Ce and Gd, x is
molar number of M and is more than or equal to 0.01 and less than or equal to 0.08, y is
molar number of Ga and is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 0.8, and the preparation method thereof comprises pretreatment of raw materials, mixing,
sintering and the like. The
raw material is easy to be evenly mixed and
sintering temperature is low during preparation in the invention. The prepared
phosphor powder has high brightness, spherical or near spherical shape, controllable powder particle size, even powder particle surface and good luminous performance through test; and the
wavelength of emitting light thereof is not changed so as to greatly improve screen
coating effect and luminous performance of devices when being applied to different devices, thus being applicable to field emission displays, projection televisions and LED devices, flying-
spot scanning displays and the fields with high requirement on screen
coating effect, luminous brightness and luminous efficiency of the phosphor powder.
