Excitation and photoluminescence spectra of single- and non-single-phased phosphors based on LaInO3 doped with Dy3+, Ho3+ activators and Sb3+ probable sensitizer

Abstract Single-phased La 0.95 Ln 0.05 InO 3 ( Ln – Dy, Ho), La 0.90 Dy 0.05 Ho 0.05 InO 3 , LaInO 3 ceramic samples as well as the La 0.95 Ln 0.05 In 0.98 Sb 0.02 O 3 ( Ln – Dy, Ho), La 0.90 Dy 0.05 Ho 0.05 In 0.98 Sb 0.02 O 3 , LaIn 0.98 Sb 0.02 O 3 samples with additional impurity LaSbO 3 phase were prepared by solid-state reactions method. Their excitation and photoluminescence (PL) spectra were measured at room temperature. It was established that PL bands intensity of spectra obtained for samples of nominal composition La 0.95 Dy 0.05 In 0.98 Sb 0.02 O 3 , La 0.95 Ho 0.05 In 0.98 Sb 0.02 O 3 , La 0.90 Dy 0.05 Ho 0.05 In 0.98 Sb 0.02 O 3 is much higher than that of single-phase La 0.95…
