Near-UV-excited Dy3+-doped calcium borophosphate (CBP) phosphors for white LED applications

Calcium borophosphate (CBP) phosphors doped with Dy(3+)were synthesized by solid-state reaction method. These phosphors were characterized by photoluminescence spectra and decay curves in the visible region. These phosphors were excited at 350 nm, and emission spectra were studied. Decay curves were obtained for the transition,F-4(9/2) -> (6)H(13/2)of Dy3+, and lifetimes were measured for different concentrations of Dy(3+)ions. CIE chromaticity coordinates were obtained for these Dy3+-doped CBP phosphors. Correlated color temperature was also calculated using the standard formula.
