Exploring the effect of boron on the grain morphology change and spectral properties of Eu ³⁺ activated barium tantalate phosphor

Abstract

sites, and an increase in the electron density of the surrounding ligands, respectively. The increase in boron led to longer decays in the observed lifetime with bi-exponential characteristics. The CIE diagram and UV lamp photographs of the phosphors showed a color transition from red to orange associated with the increasing magnetic dipole transition. This study may provide an alternative perspective and new strategies to describe the control of grain morphology and luminescence concerning RE-doped phosphors.
