Xd. Sun et Xd. Xiang, NEW PHOSPHOR (GD2-XZNX)O3-DELTA-EU3+ WITH HIGH LUMINESCENT EFFICIENCYAND SUPERIOR CHROMATICITY, Applied physics letters, 72(5), 1998, pp. 525-527
A new phosphor, (Gd1.54Zn0.46)O3-delta:Eu-0.06(3+), with a photolumine
scent quantum efficiency of approximate to 86% and a superior color ch
romaticity (x = 0.656, y = 0.344) compared to the state of art red pho
sphor Y2O3:Eu3+ was identified using the combinatorial thin film synth
esis method. This phosphor may replace Y2O3:Eu3+ in display applicatio
ns where a more saturated red phosphor is preferred. (C) 1998 American
