A new blue-green emitting phosphor Ca12Al14O33Cl2: Eu2+, Mn2+ has been synthesized by the solid-state reaction technique method under a reductive atmosphere. The X-ray diffraction measurement results indicate that the crystal structure of the phosphor is a single phase of Ca12Al14O33Cl2. The phosphors can be efficiently excited by near ultraviolet (n-UV) light and show a blue emission band at about 450 nm and a green emission band at about 550 nm, which originated from the Eu2+ ions and the Mn2+ ions. The efficient energy transfer from the Eu2+ ions and the Mn2+ ions was observed and its mechanism should be a resonant type via a nonradiative dipole-quadrupole interaction. The critical distance between the Eu2+ ions and Mn2+ ions has been calculated to be about 10.83 angstrom as well. In addition, the temperature dependent photoluminescence of the as-prepared phosphors has been investigated in detail. Our results indicate that the developed phosphor may be used as a potential blue-green emitting phosphor for UV-based white LEDs.
