Abstract
Blue-emitting $Sr_{10}$($PO$)$_{6}$ $Cl_2$:$Eu^{2+}$ and $_{(Sr,Mg) }$ 10/($PO_4$)$_{6}$ $Cl_2$:$Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles for application of long-wavelength UV LED were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. The luminescence characteristics under long- wave-length ultraviolet of the $Sr_{10}$ ($PO_4$)$_{6}$ $Cl_2$:$Eu^{2+}$ and (Sr,Mg)$_{10}$ ($PO_4$)$_{6}$ $Cl_2$:$^Eu{2+}$ phosphor particles prepared by the spray pyrolysis were compared with that of the commercial product. The PL intensity of the $Sr_{10}$ ($PO_4$)$_{6}$ $Cl_2$:$Eu^{2+}$ particles prepared by the spray pyrolysis was lower than that of the commercial $Sr_{10}$ ($PO_4$)$_{6}$ $Cl_2$:$Eu^{2+}$ particles because prepared $Sr_{10}$ ($PO_4$)$_{6}$ $Cl_2$:$Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles had porous structure and hollow morphology. However, the PL intensity of the (Sr,Mg)$_{10}$($PO_4$)$_{6}$ $Cl_2$:$Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles prepared by the spray pyrolysis was 8% higher than that of the commercial one. The high brightness of $(Sr,Mg)_{10}$ ($PO_4$)$_{6}$ $Cl_2$:Eu$^{2+}$ phosphor particles prepared by spray pyrolysis is due to the dense structure and high crystallinity of particles. The TEX>$(Sr,Mg)<_{10}$ ($PO_4$)$_{6}$ /$Cl_2$:$Eu^{ 2+}$ phosphor particles had main emission peak t 448 nm under long- wavelength ultraviolet.
