Thus, the term "valence" encompasses the element's charge number. Elements with a valence of 2 are referred to as divalent elements. Divalent elements are often doubly positively charged in chemical compounds and have a charge number of +2.

According to at least one embodiment of the phosphor, E is an activator element. The activator element changes the electronic structure of the host lattice in that electromagnetic radiation is absorbed by the phosphor and excites an electronic transition in the activator element, which returns to the ground state while emitting electromagnetic radiation with an emission spectrum. The activator element, which is incorporated into the host lattice, is thus responsible for the wavelength-converting properties of the phosphor.The term "wavelength-converting" in this context means that radiated electromagnetic radiation of a specific wavelength range, in this case the excitation spectrum or first wavelength range, is converted into electromagnetic radiation of another, preferably longer wavelength range, in this case the emission spectrum or second wavelength range. Typically, a wavelength-converting component absorbs electromagnetic radiation of an radiated wavelength range, converts it through electronic processes at the atomic and / or molecular level into electromagnetic radiation of another wavelength range, and re-emits the converted electromagnetic radiation. In particular, pure scattering or pure absorption is not understood as wavelength-converting in this context. 2022PF00078 March 6, 2025P2023,0898 WO N -. 5 -Here and below, phosphors are described using molecular formulas.

Quenching here and in the following refers to the presence of processes that lead to the absorption of a photon in the first wavelength range, but without the subsequent emission of a photon in the second wavelength range or emission spectrum. The photon in the first wavelength range does not trigger a visible transition in the visible spectral range, but is converted into lattice vibrations. This leads to a reduction in efficiency. Quenching can be caused, for example, by internal conversion or energy transfer, for example, to the host lattice. Conventional applications of phosphors sometimes operate at significantly higher irradiances than 100 mW / mm². 2 . Phosphors containing Ce 3+as an activator element, show lower quenching even at higher irradiances. Therefore, the use of Ce 3+ advantageous as activator element E. An excited state of Ce 3+ has a typical lifetime of usually less than 100 nanoseconds. The typical lifetime of the excited state of Eu 2+ is typically in the range of 1 to 10 microseconds. Due to the shorter lifetime of the excited state of Ce, a phosphor with Ce as the activator element exhibits lower quenching at high irradiances. For example, the conventional phosphor Y3Al5O 12 :Ce 3+ Only above an irradiance of 10 W / mm² does significant radiation-induced quenching occur. The use of conventional orange-emitting phosphors such as (Ca,Sr,Ba)2Si5N8:Eu 2+ and (Ca,Sr)AlSiN3:Eu 2+is also limited to low irradiance levels. The optimal2022PF00078 6 March 2025P2023,0898 WO N - 9 - The application range is <1 W / mm2 irradiance, since above 1 W / mm2 the efficiency can decrease significantly.

CaO1 is eight-fold coordinated by N or O atoms, and CaO2 is four-fold coordinated by N or O atoms. 2022PF00078 March 6, 2025P2023,0898 WO N -. 17 -According to the embodiment of the phosphor with the formula Ca6-xrq-pYx-w-u+pSi9-xy-3w-2rAlx+y+3w+2rN14-y-3u-2q+pO3+y+3u+2q-p:Ce, CaO1 / YO1 is fully occupied and CaO2 / YO2 is half occupied. CaO1 / YO1 is eight-coordinated by N or O atoms, and CaO2 / YO2 is four-coordinated by N or O atoms. Mixed occupation of both crystallographic layers is possible with yttrium and calcium. Mixed occupation of the two N layers N006 and N008 by N and O is also possible. The N007 layer is four-coordinated and is therefore exclusively occupied by N atoms. Furthermore, a mixed occupation of all silicon layers with Al is possible. According to one embodiment of the phosphor of the formula Ba6-xrq-pLax-w-u+pSi9-xy-3w-2rAlx+y+3w+2rN14-y-3u-2q+pO3+y+3u+2q-p:Ce, BaO1 / LaO1 is not fully occupied and / or BaO2 / LaO2 is not half occupied, but the layers have a smaller occupation factor. This means that one or both layers are underoccupied.Charge compensation can be achieved via substitutions in the silicate framework, e.g., by replacing Si with Al or N with O. According to at least one embodiment, the phosphor absorbs electromagnetic radiation in the near-ultraviolet to blue and red spectral range. According to at least one embodiment, the phosphor is excitable between 400 nanometers and 650 nanometers inclusive. Preferably, the phosphor is excitable below 580 nm, particularly preferably between 520 nanometers and 580 nanometers inclusive. Other wavelengths for exciting the phosphor are conceivable. 2022PF00078 March 6, 2025P2023,0898 WO N -. 18 -According to at least one embodiment of the phosphor, the phosphor emits electromagnetic radiation. The emitted electromagnetic radiation can be described in the form of an emission spectrum. The emission spectrum has an emission peak with an emission maximum lying between 560 nm and 630 nm inclusive. For example, the emission maximum of the phosphor with excitation at 448 nm is between 578 nm and 602 nm. The emission spectrum is the intensity distribution of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the phosphor after excitation with electromagnetic radiation of the first wavelength range.Typically, the emission spectrum is represented in the form of a diagram in which a spectral intensity or a spectral radiant flux per wavelength interval ("spectral intensity / spectral radiant flux") of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the phosphor is plotted as a function of the wavelength λ. In other words, the emission spectrum represents a curve in which the wavelength is plotted on the x-axis and the spectral intensity or the spectral radiant flux is plotted on the y-axis. According to at least one further embodiment, a dominant wavelength (λ dom ) of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the phosphor between 550 nm and 650 nm inclusive. According to at least one further embodiment, a dominant wavelength (λ dom ) of the phosphor2022PF00078 6 March 2025P2023,0898 WO N - 19 -emitted electromagnetic radiation at an excitation wavelength of 440 nm or 448 nm between 570 nm and 600 nm inclusive. According to at least one further embodiment, a dominant wavelength (λ dom) of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the phosphor at an excitation wavelength of 520 nm between 595 nm and 605 nm inclusive. According to at least one embodiment, the dominant wavelength is advantageously in the orange to red wavelength range. To determine the dominant wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the phosphor, a straight line is drawn in the CIE standard diagram, starting from the white point through the color location of the electromagnetic radiation. The intersection point of the straight line with the spectral color line delimiting the CIE standard diagram designates the dominant wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation. In other words, the dominant wavelength is the monochromatic wavelength that produces the same color impression as a polychromatic light source. The dominant wavelength is therefore the wavelength perceived by the human eye.In general, the dominant wavelength deviates from the wavelength of the emission maximum. According to at least one preferred embodiment, the half-width of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the phosphor is between 80 nm and 200 nm inclusive. Preferably, the half-width of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the phosphor is 2022PF00078 March 6, 2025P2023,0898 WO N -. 20 -electromagnetic radiation when the host lattice is doped with Eu has a range from 80 to 100 nm inclusive, preferably from 85 nm to 95 nm inclusive. The half-width of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the phosphor when the host lattice is doped with Ce preferably has a range from 110 to 160 nm inclusive, preferably from 125 nm to 155 nm inclusive. The term “half-width” refers to a curve with a maximum, such as the emission spectrum, where the half-width is the width of that region on the x-axis which corresponds to the two y-values which correspond to half the maximum. Furthermore, an optoelectronic component is specified. The phosphor is particularly suitable and intended for use in an optoelectronic component.Features and embodiments that are implemented solely in connection with the phosphor and / or the method can also be implemented in the optoelectronic component, and vice versa. According to at least one embodiment of the optoelectronic component, the optoelectronic component comprises a semiconductor chip that, during operation, emits electromagnetic radiation of a first wavelength range from a radiation exit surface. The semiconductor chip is, for example, a light-emitting diode chip or a laser diode chip.2022PF00078 March 6, 2025P2023,0898 WO N -. 21 -The semiconductor chip preferably has an epitaxially grown semiconductor layer sequence with an active zone configured to generate electromagnetic radiation. For this purpose, the active zone has, for example, a pn junction, a double heterostructure, a single quantum well, or particularly preferably a multiple quantum well structure. During operation, the semiconductor chip preferably emits electromagnetic radiation from the ultraviolet spectral range and / or from the visible spectral range, particularly preferably from the blue spectral range. According to a further embodiment, the optoelectronic component has a conversion element with a phosphor described here, which converts electromagnetic radiation of the first wavelength range into electromagnetic radiation of the emission spectrum. The first wavelength range preferably lies entirely or partially in the range of the excitation spectrum of the phosphor.The phosphor completely or partially converts electromagnetic radiation of the first wavelength range into electromagnetic radiation of the emission spectrum. The conversion element comprises, for example, in addition to the phosphor described here, a matrix material in which the phosphor is embedded in the form of particles. The matrix material is preferably selected from the group of silicones, polysiloxanes, epoxies, glasses, and hybrid materials. For example, a further phosphor is embedded in the matrix material. The further phosphor is, for example, a garnet phosphor or a nitride 2022PF00078 March 6, 2025P2023,0898 WO N -. 22 -Phosphor. The further phosphor is preferably a green or yellow-emitting phosphor. According to at least one embodiment, the conversion element consists of the phosphor described here. For example, the phosphor is formed as a ceramic. For example, the conversion element only partially converts the electromagnetic radiation of the semiconductor chip into electromagnetic radiation of the emission spectrum, while a further portion of the electromagnetic radiation of the semiconductor chip is transmitted by the conversion element. In this case, the optoelectronic component preferably emits mixed light composed of electromagnetic radiation of the first wavelength range and electromagnetic radiation of the emission spectrum. For example, the electromagnetic component emits white light.The optoelectronic component is particularly suitable for use in backlights for screens and in white-light LEDs for general lighting. These optoelectronic components are also used, for example, in automotive direction indicators due to their full conversion to orange LEDs. The phosphor can be advantageous for all applications where, in addition to brightness, a slight orange and / or red component is important, for example, lighting solutions for general lighting or automotive headlights. Furthermore, these optoelectronic components are used for use at higher irradiances due to their low flux quenching. The optoelectronic component 2022PF00078 March 6, 2025 P2023,0898 WO N -. 23 -can also be used in combination with the present phosphor alone to generate warm white light. Furthermore, the optoelectronic component can generate various light forms with a color rendering index CRI > 70 in phosphor mixtures without the use of Eu-doped phosphors. The optoelectronic component can also be used for horticulture applications. For horticulture applications, for example, phosphors for the 610-700 nm range are required, as they can be helpful for the phototropism of the plant. Red semiconductor LEDs (single emitters) are typically used for horticulture applications. The emission of single emitters is usually very narrow, and the position of the maximum is temperature-dependent, usually with deviations of ±5 nm. These circumstances have a negative impact on efficiency / performance.According to at least one embodiment, the conversion element comprises at least one further phosphor that converts electromagnetic radiation of the first wavelength range into electromagnetic radiation of a further wavelength range. This means, for example, that the further phosphor is also embedded in the same conversion element as the first phosphor. Alternatively, the further phosphor can also be arranged in a further conversion element located above or below the conversion element. The further phosphor preferably converts electromagnetic radiation of the first wavelength range into electromagnetic radiation of the third wavelength range, which differs from the emission spectrum 2022PF00078 March 6, 2025P2023,0898 WO N -. 24 -of the present phosphor. In particular, the further phosphor emits green and / or yellow light. The phosphor can be produced using the method described below. Features and embodiments that are only implemented in connection with the phosphor and the optoelectronic component can also be implemented in the method, and vice versa.

According to at least one embodiment of the process, in a first step of the process, a reactant composition, which may be stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric, is homogenized. Preferably, the reactants are intimately mixed in a glove box under a protective gas atmosphere. This can be done, for example, in a hand mortar, a mortar mill, a ball mill, a multi-axis mixer, or the like. According to one embodiment of the process, the resulting reaction mixture of the reactants is transferred into a crucible. The crucible can contain, for example, nickel, corundum, tungsten, molybdenum or tantalum.According to at least one embodiment, the reaction mixture is heated in a further step to a temperature between 800°C and 2200°C inclusive, preferably between 850°C and 2100°C inclusive, particularly preferably between 900°C and 2000°C. The temperature is maintained for 0.5 hours up to and including 100 hours, preferably for 1 hour up to and including 80 hours, particularly preferably between 2 hours and 60 hours. The heating takes place under a nitrogen atmosphere or a reducing atmosphere, for example forming gas, at atmospheric or elevated pressure. 2022PF00078 March 6, 2025P2023,0898 WO N -. 26 -The forming gas atmosphere / synthesis gas atmosphere comprises, for example, a mixture of nitrogen or argon with up to 100% hydrogen or is formed from such a mixture. According to at least one embodiment, the reaction mixture is heated at a pressure between 2 bar and 100 bar, preferably between 5 bar and 50 bar, particularly preferably between 10 bar and 40 bar. After the reaction has taken place and the product has cooled, the product is ground in a hand mortar. This can be done, for example, in a hand mortar, a mortar mill, or a ball mill. In particular, the product is washed with 2 molar hydrochloric acid. This advantageously increases the phase fraction. According to at least one embodiment, the reaction takes place at high temperatures for 48 hours and at an N2 overpressure.The synthesis temperatures are between 800°C and 1100°C, preferably between 850°C and 1050°C, particularly preferably between 900 and 1000°C. The pressure range is between 20 and 100 bar, preferably between 40 and 90 bar, particularly preferably between 75 and 85 bar. According to at least one embodiment, the reaction takes place at high temperatures for 0.5 hours to 24 hours, preferably for 1 hour to 12 hours, particularly preferably between 2 hours to 6 hours under N2 or reducing conditions. Typical synthesis temperatures are between 1600°C and 2200°C, preferably between 1750°C and 2100°C, particularly preferably between 1850°C and 2000°C. Additionally, 2022PF00078 March 6, 2025 P2023,0898 WO N -. 27 -an overpressure of 5 bar to 100 bar, preferably from 10 bar to 50 bar, particularly preferably from 15 bar to 40 bar, can be used. For example, the temperature is between 1850 °C and 2000 °C inclusive, the overpressure is 20 bar, and the holding time is 4 hours in an N2 atmosphere. According to at least one embodiment, the reactants are selected from a group comprising nitrides, oxides, nitrates, citrates, oxalates, halides, carbonates, hydroxides of each of EA, SE, T, D, A, E, and combinations thereof. According to at least one embodiment, the reactants are selected from the following group: yttrium compound, lanthanum compound, calcium compound, barium compound, strontium compound, silicon compound, cerium compound, aluminum compound, lithium compound, europium compound, and combinations thereof.According to at least one embodiment, the reactants are selected from the following group: YN, Ca3N2, LaN, SiO2, BaN1-α (α is between -0.5 and 0.5 inclusive), Si3N4, AlN and CeO. 2, CeN, CeF3, Li3N, EuF3, and combinations thereof. The activator content is 0.01 mol% to 10 mol%, preferably 0.1 mol% to 5 mol% with respect to calcium or Ba and La, or Ca and La, or Ca and Y. One idea for the present phosphor is to use it as a narrow-band orange emitter. At higher irradiances, efficient cerium- or Eu-based phosphors that convert in the orange spectral range are not currently in use. Therefore, cerium-based phosphors are used. 28 -Conversion phosphors in this spectral range are urgently needed and can contribute to more efficient and thus more cost-effective solutions for the application. The phosphor can therefore be advantageous for a wide variety of applications where, in addition to brightness, a slight red component is important, for example, in lighting solutions for general lighting, automotive headlights, or direction indicators. Using the phosphor, it is possible to realize pure Cerium-activated CRI (color rendering index) 70 solutions at common color temperatures without the use of an Eu-activated phosphor. This enables the use of the phosphor mixtures at higher irradiances, where Eu-activated phosphors tend to exhibit strong quenching effects. It is also possible to realize a fluorescent solution for direction indicators without an Eu2+-activated phosphor using the phosphor.A further advantage of the phosphor is an improvement in the color locus shift in a phosphor solution in which only Ce-doped or Eu-doped phosphors are used. Since Eu- and Ce-doped phosphors often exhibit different quenching behavior, temperature changes, for example, lead to significantly different quenching and thus to significant changes, for example, in the color locus of the application. The use of phosphors with the same activator can therefore reduce this problem.

Between the (T,D,A)(N,O)4 tetrahedra 2 are gaps in which the EA and / or SE atoms 8 are located. The gaps can have half- or fully occupied EA and / or SE positions (6 / 7) or even lower occupancies.

Figure 5 also shows the crystal structure of the phosphor 1, in this case Ca6-xrq-pYx-w-u+pSi9-xy-3w-2rAlx+y+3w+2rN14- y-3u-2q+p O 3+y+3u+2q-p :Ce 3+ or (Ca,Ba) 6-x-r-q-p La x-w-u+p Si 9-x-y-3w- 2022PF00078 6 March 2025P2023,0898 WO N - 34 -2r Al x+y+3w+2r N 14-y-3u-2q+p O 3+y+3u+2q-p :Ce 3+ , according to an exemplary embodiment. In the three-dimensional network spanning (Si,Al)(O,N)4 tetrahedra 2, there are two crystallographically different heavy atom layers occupied by rare earth and alkaline earth atoms, i.e., in this case, by Y,La and Ca,Ba. CaO1,YO1 is fully occupied and CaO2,YO2 is half occupied. CaO1,YO1 is eight-fold coordinated, and YO2 four-fold coordinated by O,N atoms. Ca,YO1 or Ca,YO2 can also be a Ca-La layer or a Ba-La layer. The N007 layer is four-fold bridging and is therefore occupied exclusively by N atoms. Furthermore, a mixed occupation of all Si layers with Al and / or Li is possible. Figure 5 is a comparable representation to Figure 3. In the middle of the second motif 5 there is a full occupation 6 of the EA, SE atoms 8.

The semiconductor chip 11 comprises an active layer sequence and an active region (not explicitly shown here) which serves to generate the primary radiation. The primary radiation is electromagnetic radiation of a first wavelength range. It is preferably electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths in the visible range, for example in the blue to red spectral range. A conversion element 13 is arranged in the beam path of the electromagnetic radiation in the first wavelength range emitted by the semiconductor chip 11.The conversion element 13 is configured to absorb the electromagnetic radiation of the first wavelength range and to at least partially convert it into electromagnetic radiation of the emission spectrum. In particular, the emission spectrum has a longer wavelength than the absorbed first wavelength range.

The phosphor 1 can be embedded in a matrix material. The matrix material is, for example, a silicone, a polysiloxane, an epoxy resin, or a glass. Alternatively, the conversion element 13 can be free of a matrix material. In this case, the conversion element 13 can consist of the phosphor 1, for example, a ceramic of the phosphor 1. Alternatively, the conversion element 13 can have at least one further phosphor 1. The further phosphor 1 converts electromagnetic radiation of the first wavelength range into electromagnetic radiation of a further wavelength range. The further phosphor can, for example, convert the electromagnetic radiation of the first wavelength range into electromagnetic radiation of the yellow and / or green wavelength range.The additional phosphor can be, for example, a garnet phosphor and / or a nitride phosphor. Examples of these are β-SiAlON:Eu, (Ca,Sr,Ba)Si2O2N2:Eu, EA2Si(O,N)4:Eu, LuAG:Ce, YAGaG:Ce, and / or YAG:Ce. Other phosphors or combinations of phosphors are conceivable. The semiconductor chip 11 and the conversion element 13 are embedded in a recess 15 of a housing 14. For better stabilization and protection of the semiconductor chip 11 and the conversion element 13, the recess 15 of the 2022PF00078 March 6, 2025P2023,0898 WO N -. 46 -Housing 14 may be filled with a potting compound 16, and the semiconductor chip 11 and the conversion element 13 are completely encased by the potting compound 16. The conversion element 13 may, as shown in Figure 13, be arranged in direct mechanical contact with the semiconductor chip 11. In particular, the radiation exit surface 12 forms the common surface between the conversion element 13 and the semiconductor chip 11. Alternatively, further layers, such as adhesive layers, may be located between the semiconductor chip 11 and the conversion element 13. According to the exemplary embodiment shown in Figure 14, the conversion element 13 is arranged at a distance from the semiconductor chip 11. In this case, a potting compound 16 may be arranged between the semiconductor chip 11 and the conversion element 13. Alternatively, the recess 15 between the semiconductor chip 11 and the conversion element 13 can also be free of a potting 16 or further layers or components.According to the exemplary embodiment illustrated in Figure 15, the conversion element 13 is arranged in a recess 15. The semiconductor chip 11 is embedded in the conversion element 13. The conversion element 13 comprises the phosphor 1 and the matrix material, which is, for example, silicone. Further phosphors can be incorporated into the conversion element 13.
