Abstract
Polycrystalline Na 3SO 4F:Eu and NaMgSO 4F:Eu halosulphate phosphors prepared by a wet chemical method have been studied for its photoluminescence (PL) and thermoluminescence (TL) characteristics. Two well resolved peaks are observed at 593 nm and 614 nm, which are assigned to due to 5D 0→ 7F 1 and 5D 0→ 7F 2 transitions of Eu 3+ ions. TL is observed at temperatures between 100 °C and 300 °C. In this paper, we report PL emission spectra of Eu +3 and TL glow curves, which are more sensitive than the standard TLD-CaSO 4:Dy. The presented phosphors are applicable for the mercury free lamps and solid state lighting devices.
