Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of rare earth luminescent materials technology, specifically an ultra-narrow band violet phosphor and its preparation method and application. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of technology, fluorescent materials are being used more and more widely in lighting, display technology, and biomarking. As an important optical material, the performance of phosphors directly affects the luminous efficacy, color reproduction, and lifespan of the final product. The demand for phosphors is particularly increasing in high-performance display technologies and high-efficiency lighting equipment.
[0003] Currently, various types of phosphors exist on the market, and these phosphors can be widely used in different fields based on their different excitation and emission spectra. Ultra-narrow-band violet phosphors, due to their high color purity and specific emission wavelengths, are considered materials with great potential in high-quality displays and special lighting. However, despite the obvious advantages of these materials, many challenges remain in practical applications. Existing violet phosphors (emission spectral range 380–450 nm, emission peak position 390–425 nm) have relatively wide half-widths (HWHMs), generally greater than 33 nm. These mainly include: α-Sr₂SiO₄:Ce 3+ / K + The emission peak is at 425 nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 65.5 nm; NaSrBO3:Ce 3+ The emission peak is at 422 nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 70 nm; KSrPO4:Eu 2+ The emission peak is at 428 nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 35 nm; KBaPO4:Eu 2+ The emission peak is at 425 nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 45 nm; K2BaSr(PO4)2:Eu 2+ The emission peak is at 428 nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 38 nm; Na2BaSr(PO4)2:Eu 2+ The emission peak is at 428 nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 62 nm; Ca3(PO4)2:Eu 2+ The emission peak is at 413 nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 39 nm; Sr3(PO4)2:Eu 2+ The emission peak is at 416 nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 41 nm; Ca8Mg7Si9N 22 Eu 2+ The emission peak is at 400nm, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) is 34nm.
[0004] However, ultra-narrowband violet phosphors with a half-width at half-maximum (HWHM) of less than 25 nm are rarely reported. On the one hand, the wider the emission spectrum of a phosphor, the lower its color purity, limiting its application in high-end displays and precision lighting. On the other hand, the synthesis temperature of existing violet phosphors is generally high; orthophosphate phosphors typically require 1000–1500°C, while nitride phosphors require even higher temperatures exceeding 1700°C, resulting in high costs, high energy consumption, and demanding production equipment requirements. To address these issues, this invention aims to solve the problems of poor violet display capability, low color purity, high synthesis temperature, and high energy consumption in existing technologies through the development of a novel ultra-narrowband violet phosphor. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Purpose of the invention: In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this invention is to provide an ultra-narrowband violet phosphor with high luminous efficiency, good chemical stability, high color purity and excellent temperature sensitivity. Another purpose of this invention is to provide a simple, convenient, low-cost and environmentally friendly method for preparing ultra-narrowband violet phosphor. A further purpose of this invention is to provide an application of ultra-narrowband violet phosphor in display devices and temperature sensors.

[0010] Furthermore, the emission spectrum of the phosphor has a wavelength range of 390–450 nm, with a peak position at 415–420 nm.
[0011] The preparation method of the above-mentioned ultranarrowband violet phosphor includes the following steps:
[0012] Step 1, according to the general formula A2M(PO3)4:zEu 2+ The raw materials, including potassium-containing compounds, sodium-containing compounds, calcium-containing compounds, strontium-containing compounds, barium-containing compounds, phosphorus-containing compounds, and europium-containing compounds, were weighed according to the stoichiometric ratio and then ball-milled to mix them thoroughly and evenly.
[0013] Step 2: Transfer the contents obtained in Step 1 into a crucible and slowly pre-calcine it in an air atmosphere. Hold it at multiple temperature ranges of 70-200°C, and finally raise it to the pre-calcine temperature of 200-350°C and hold it thereafter. After cooling down, grind it to make it evenly mixed.
[0014] Step 3: The product obtained in Step 2 is synthesized in a reducing atmosphere at 550-700℃, kept at this temperature, and then taken out and ground after natural cooling to obtain ultra-narrow band violet phosphor.
[0015] In step one, the potassium-containing compound is one or more of potassium hydroxide, potassium carbonate, potassium bicarbonate, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, or potassium nitrate; the sodium-containing compound is one or more of sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, or sodium nitrate; the strontium-containing compound is one or more of strontium hydroxide, strontium carbonate, strontium phosphate, strontium hydrogen phosphate, or strontium nitrate; the calcium-containing compound is one or more of calcium hydroxide, calcium oxide, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, calcium hydrogen phosphate, or calcium nitrate; the barium-containing compound is one or more of barium hydroxide, barium oxide, barium carbonate, barium phosphate, barium hydrogen phosphate, or barium nitrate; the phosphorus-containing compound is one or more of diammonium hydrogen phosphate or diammonium dihydrogen phosphate; and the europium-containing compound is europium oxide or europium nitrate.

[0017] Furthermore, in step two, the pre-calcination heating rate is 0.1–1 °C / min, and the temperature is maintained at each of the multiple holding stages for 10–60 minutes. Finally, the temperature is raised to the pre-calcination temperature of 200–350 °C and held for 2–24 hours.

[0019] Furthermore, in step three, the reducing atmosphere is one or more of nitrogen, hydrogen, argon, ammonia, and carbon monoxide. The holding time is 2–24 hours.
[0020] Preferably, in step three, the synthesis is carried out at 600–650°C for 4–8 hours.
[0021] Applications of the aforementioned ultra-narrowband violet phosphor in display devices and temperature sensors.
[0022] The application of display devices includes the following steps: mixing phosphor with high-purity green phosphor and red phosphor evenly, and then encapsulating it with a near-ultraviolet LED chip with an emission peak wavelength in the range of 330-385nm to produce a white LED device.
[0023] Furthermore, green phosphors can be used for Sr3Si 13 Al3O2N 21 Eu 2+ Red phosphors can be CaAlSiN3:Eu 2+ and K2SiF6:Mn 4+ .
[0024] When using the same green and red phosphors, white LED devices obtained by using the phosphors described in this invention as backlights for liquid crystal displays have a significantly wider color gamut.
[0025] Temperature sensing applications include the following steps: mixing a phosphor with another phosphor that has excellent fluorescent thermal stability and whose emission spectrum has little overlap with the emission spectrum of the phosphor described in this invention, thereby obtaining a fluorescent material with excellent temperature sensing performance.
[0026] Temperature measurement principle: The emission spectrum of the phosphor is collected at different temperatures (T), and the luminescence intensity value I at two peak positions (x nm and y nm) is directly read. x Value and I y The fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR = I) at various temperatures was obtained. x / I y This allows us to obtain a curve showing the fitting relationship between fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) and temperature (T).
[0027] Temperature measurement method: Acquire spectral data of the fluorescent temperature sensing material under the conditions of the environment to be tested, and read the peak intensity (I0). x and I y The FIR value can be obtained, and temperature measurement and sensing can be performed based on the relationship curve.
[0028] Based on the temperature response characteristics of the phosphor described in this invention, its application in fluorescence temperature sensing not only features a simple testing method, eliminating the need for reference calibration and exhibiting self-calibrating temperature measurement characteristics, but also high accuracy and excellent sensitivity. Its application is unaffected by the ratio and amount of the two phosphors, as well as by environmental electromagnetic fields, the model of the testing instrument, and the intensity of the light source.
[0029] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following significant features:
[0030] 1. The obtained phosphor exhibits ultra-narrow band violet light emission under near-ultraviolet light excitation, with high color purity, high luminous efficiency, and good chemical stability;

[0140] Application Example 4
[0141] The phosphor obtained in Example 20 was applied to temperature sensing, and the specific steps were as follows:
[0142] The phosphor obtained in Example 20 of this invention was combined with a zero-thermal quenching phosphor Na3Sc2(PO4)3:Eu with an emission peak at 455 nm. 2+ Mix them together.
[0143] The resulting composite powder exhibits excellent fluorescence temperature sensing performance. Emission spectra of the phosphor were collected at different temperatures, and the luminescence intensity values (I) at the two peaks of 455 nm and 418 nm were directly read. 455 and I 418 The fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR = I) at various temperatures was obtained. 455 / I 418 This allows us to obtain a curve showing the fitting relationship between fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) and temperature (T). Figure 10 This is the fitted temperature measurement curve of the fluorescent temperature sensing material described in this application example. As can be seen from the figure, its temperature measurement equation is FIR=17839.18*exp(-3286.38 / T)+0.090, with a goodness of fit higher than 0.996 and a temperature measurement accuracy exceeding 0.01℃, demonstrating high temperature measurement accuracy. Figure 11 The absolute and relative sensitivity of the fluorescent temperature sensing material prepared in Application Example 4 are shown. Relative sensitivity is a key parameter for fluorescent temperature sensing materials; therefore, the material described in this application example exhibits high sensitivity, with a maximum relative sensitivity of 2.84% K. -1 .
[0144] The fluorescent temperature sensing material described in this invention is unaffected by the ratio and amount of the two phosphors used, nor by the ambient electromagnetic field, the model of the testing instrument, or the intensity of the light source. Temperature measurement method: Spectral data is collected under the conditions of the environment to be tested to obtain the FIR value. Temperature measurement and sensing can then be performed based on the relationship curve. Not only is the testing method simple, but it also requires no reference calibration and has the characteristic of self-calibrating temperature measurement.
[0145] The temperature sensing applications of the phosphor described in this invention are not limited to Application Example 4. Based on the temperature response characteristics of the phosphor described in this invention, when combined with another phosphor exhibiting excellent fluorescence thermal stability, high-precision, self-calibrating, and high-sensitivity temperature measurement can be achieved.
