Jh. Yang et al., LUMINESCENCE CHARACTERISTICS AND ENERGY-TRANSFER MECHANISM OF LAOBR-TB3+(DY3+), JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, 13(6), 1997, pp. 479-482
The rare earth luminescence materials LaOBr:Tb3+(Dy3+) were synthesize
d at high temperature, and the structure and luminescence characterist
ics were studied. The co-doping Dy3+ may make the energy of D-5(3) of
Tb3+ transfer to D-5(4) level, which makes the emission of D-5(4)-F-7(
J) (J=0, 1...6), specially of D-5(4)-F-7(5), enhance obviously, and th
e total brightness is increased by about 40% in comparison with the sa
mples without Dy3+ cations, as a result of the energy transfer of dipo
le-dipole interaction.
