Abstract

A novel blue phosphor based on phosphate host matrix, KSrPO2 doped with Eu2+, was prepared by solid state reaction. The phosphor invariably emits blue luminescence with a peak wavelength at 424 nm under ultraviolet excitation at 360 nm. Eu2+-doped KSrPO4 phosphors show higher thermally stable luminescence which was found to be better than commercially available Y3Al5O12:Ce 3- phosphor at temperature higher than 225°C.
