ABSTRACT |
[ $Eu^{2+}$ ]-activated barium magnesium silicate phosphor, $(Ba,Ca)_{3}MgSi_{2}O_{8}:Eu_{x}$, has been known to emit blue-green light. In this study we report the manufacturing processes for producing either pure green or pure blue light-emitting phosphor from the same composition of $Ba_{2-x}Ca_{2}CaMgSi_{2}O_{8}:Eu_{x}$ (0 < x < 1) by controlling heat treatment conditions. Green light emitting phosphor of $Ba_{1.9}CaMgSi_{2}O_{8}:Eu_{0.1}$ can be produced under the sample preparation condition of highly reducing atmosphere of $23%;H_2/77%;N_2$, while blue or blue-green light emitting phosphor under reducing atmosphere of $5~20%;H_2;/;95~80%$ N_2. The green light-emitting phosphors are prepared in two steps: firing at $800~1000^{circ}C$ for $2~5$ h in air then at $1100~1350^{circ}C$ for 2-5 h under reducing atmo |
