Preparation of Spray Pyrolyzed Bismuth Oxide and its Application in Inhibition of Ultraviolet from Light-Emitting Diode (LED)

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the present study, bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) powders were prepared from bismuth nitrate at various temperatures by spray pyrolysis (SP). The Bi2O3 powder can convert from a monoclinic α phase to a tetragonal β phase at a pyrolysis temperature of > 600° C. The crystallinity of the SP powder increased with the increase of pyrolysis temperature. The resulting SP powders were then mixed with organics and screen-printed onto the surface of LED for the evaluation of ultraviolet (UV) inhibition. The β-type bismuth oxide powder pyrolyzed at 700°C exhibited a fine crystal structure. This caused the efficiency of UV inhibition to be 97.71% when the powder concentration was as low as 9.04 wt%.
