Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of green fluorescence luminescent material, particularly a kind of under near ultraviolet excitation the fluorescent material of transmitting green fluorescence, it can be applicable to belong to the phosphor technical field in ultraviolet-near ultraviolet type white light LEDs.
Background technology
As natural colour display unit of future generation, light emitting diode has caused people's concern.It can be used to various electron devices, comprising instrument panel, TV (TV) and flat-panel monitor.Wherein white light LEDs (light emitting diode) is compared with traditional mains lighting supply, have energy-conservation, efficient, volume is little, the life-span is long, the advantage such as fast response time, driving voltage are low, anti-vibration has been subject to the extensive concern in the world.
Since first white light LEDs in 1996 comes out, development rapidly, luminous efficiency improves constantly, and is expected to replace traditional lighting sources such as incandescent light, luminescent lamp and high voltage mercury lamp, is called the green illumination light source of tool development prospect of 21st century.At present, the technology of preparing of white light LEDs mainly contains 2 kinds: (1) with three kinds of monochromatic LED combination results of red, green, blue white light, this method can arbitrarily be adjusted color, but power supply is complicated, and cost is higher; (2) mix the formation white light with other luminescent materials of LED de-excitation, namely cooperate the fluorescent material of Yellow light-emitting low temperature with blue-ray LED, perhaps use three kinds of fluorescent material of near ultraviolet LED de-excitation red, green, blue.This method is no matter be all to be better than first method aspect feasibility, practicality or the commercialization, so it has obtained very fast development.Carry out in the scheme of light conversion YAG (Y at two kinds of use fluorescent material

12): Ce
3+The yellow fluorescent powder combination, this method relative cost is lower, and efficient is higher, but owing to lack red composition, colour rendering index is relatively poor.In addition, because the absorption peak of the light-converting material of blue-light LED chip requires to be positioned at 420-470nm, the fluorescent material that can satisfy this requirement is considerably less, absorption intensity neither be very large, seek this class fluorescent material suitable difficulty is arranged, so the wavelength of led chip along with the development of manufacturing process, more and more moves toward the shortwave direction, " near ultraviolet (360-410nm) type white light LEDs (NUV-LED) " become the most active system of present research.Photochromic stable aspect has more advantage in its color quality, photochromic consistence and the working process.The combination of ultraviolet or near ultraviolet LED and three primary colors fluorescent powder, the method color developing is best, but the fluorescent material luminous efficiency is lower at present, so development of new redness, green and blue colour fluorescent powder efficient, Heat stability is good are the keys that improves the white light LEDs luminous mass.
At present, the green emitting phosphor that efficiency of conversion is higher mostly is the sulfide system, this class light-emitting phosphor less stable, and light decay is large or cost is higher, and they very easily absorb deliquescence, and its poor stability can not satisfy the requirement that LED uses.Such as Chinese patent CN1585141A " green fluorescent material of halide silicate green fluorescent material and pyrosilicate and orthosilicate ", this material excitation spectrum a wider range, but glow color is single and luminous intensity a little less than, can not mate with existing fluorescent material, significant limitation is arranged in actual applications.Chinese invention patent CN101597493A " a kind of alkaline-earth metal silicophosphate fluorescent material and manufacture method and application ", chemical constitution is M
