Fabrication, Properties and Laser Performance of Indium-Substituted YAG:Ho Phosphor by Co-Precipitation Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

Ho-doped Yttrium aluminum indium garnet, Y3Al4.5In0.5O12 (YAIG), was synthesized by co-precipitation method. Effects of Ho concentration, reaction mechanism, crystallinity and luminescence properties of the phosphor powders were studied using the X-ray diffraction, thermo-gravimetry Analyzer,scanning electron microscopy and photoluminescence. The performances of samples were analyzed by changing the concentration of Ho3+ and the substitution of indium for aluminum. The results showed that pure cubic garnet phase was formed in the Indium-substituted samples, and the critical distance of the energy transfer was 1.41 nm. Both the excitation and emission intensities increased firstly and then decreased with the increasing of Ho3+ concentration. When the concentration of Ho3+ reached 15%, the photoluminescence property of the sample was best.
