To obtain warm white-light emission, a series of Ca9MgNa(PO4)(7):Sr2+, Mn2+, Ln (Ln=Eu2+, Yb3+, Er3+, Ho3+, and Tm3+) phosphors were designed and their photoluminescence properties under near-ultraviolet and near-infrared excitation were studied. For near-ultraviolet excitation, blue-white emission is produced initially in the Eu2+ single-doped Ca9MgNa(PO4)(7), whose excitation band can well match with the near ultraviolet LED chip. By introducing Sr2+ ions into Ca9MgNa(PO4)(7):Eu2+, the Eu2+ emission band beyond 500 nm is enhanced obviously. Correspondingly, the emitting light color is tuned to nearly white. To generate warm white light further, Mn2+ is doped into the Ca8.055MgNa(PO4)(7):0.045Eu(2+), 0.9Sr(2+) and the correlated color temperature is decreased largely. For near-infrared excitation, the green, red, and blue emissions have been obtained in the Yb3+ -Er3+, Yb3+ -Er3+, and Yb3+ -Er3+ co-doped Ca9MgNa(PO4)(7) phosphors, respectively. And warm white light is also produced in the Ca9MgNa(PO4)(7):Yb3+, Er3+, Ho3+, Tm3+ under 980 nm excitation. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l. All rights reserved.
