Definitions
- the present invention relates to a phosphor and a method for producing the same, and more particularly, to a ⁇ -sialon phosphor capable of improving luminance and a method for producing the same.
- Phosphors are used in fluorescent display tubes (VFDs), field emission displays (FEDs), plasma display panels (PDPs), light emitting devices (LEDs), and the like.
- VFDs fluorescent display tubes
- FEDs field emission displays
- PDPs plasma display panels
- LEDs light emitting devices
- the phosphor In order to make the phosphor emit light, it is necessary to supply energy to excite the phosphor to the phosphor, and the phosphor is excited by an excitation source having high energy such as vacuum ultraviolet ray, ultraviolet ray, electron beam blue light or the like.
- an excitation source having high energy such as vacuum ultraviolet ray, ultraviolet ray, electron beam blue light or the like.
- the luminance of the phosphor tends to decrease and deteriorate, so that a phosphor having a low luminance decrease is required.
- sialon phosphor instead of the conventional silicate phosphor, phosphate phosphor, aluminate phosphor, sulfide phosphor, and the like, a sialon phosphor has been proposed as a phosphor having a low luminance decrease.
- the sialon phosphor is a kind of oxynitride phosphor having elements of Si, A1, 0, and N, and ⁇ -sialon phosphors and ⁇ -sialon phosphors having different crystal structures are known.
- the content of the ⁇ -sialon phosphor is described in Non-Patent Document 1, and the content of the ⁇ -sialon phosphor and its light emitting device is described in Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2, Patent Document 3, Patent Document 4 and the like. have. Further, the content of the ⁇ -sialon phosphor is described in Patent Document 5, and relates to the ⁇ -sialon phosphor and the use of the light emitting device. The content is described in patent document 6.
- Patent Document 2 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-336059
- Patent Document 3 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-238505
- Patent Document 5 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 60-206889
- ⁇ - sialon is Si 12 - such as ( ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ seed has a composition formula of a unit structure represented by a crystal structure with two pores in the crystal structure such that a relatively small pore radius in the Ca 2+ ions in the structure.
- the general formula of ⁇ -sialon in which metal ions can be dissolved and metal ions are dissolved is M m / v Si 12- (n + n) Al (n + n) O n N 8 - n : Eu where M Silver metal ion, and V is its valence.
- ⁇ -sialon in which Ca and Eu as an activator is dissolved is yellow as described in Non-Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 1.
- This phosphor is used as a starting material for each powder of silicon nitride, aluminum nitride, carbon carbonate (CaC0 3 ) and europium oxide, It can be obtained by sintering at a high temperature in a nitrogen-containing atmosphere after weighing and mixing in a certain amount.
- a high-purity material Patent Document 3
- metal silicon Patent Document 4
- ⁇ -sialon has a composition formula represented by the general formula ⁇ .
- [beta] -sialon phosphors having an active substance added to [beta] -sialon are described in Patent Documents 5 and 6.
- Patent Document 5 discloses a ⁇ -sialon phosphor having a rare earth element such as Cu, Ag, or Eu as an active substance as ⁇ -sialon.
- Eu-activated ⁇ -sialon phosphors described in Patent Document 5 range from 410 nm to blue emission region.
- Patent Document 6 It is a phosphor that emits light at 440 nm, and the phosphor described in Patent Document 6 is reported to be a green phosphor. As the light emission color difference of both is described in Patent Document 6, Eu-activated ⁇ -sialon of Patent Document 5 has a low sintering temperature and thus is an active material.
- Eu-activated ⁇ -sialon phosphor of Patent Document 6 has a feature of being excited by light of blue light region in ultraviolet region by green light emission. For this reason, attention has been drawn to green light emitting phosphors for white light emitting elements composed of blue light emitting elements and phosphors or ultraviolet light emitting elements and phosphors.
- Eu-activated ⁇ -sialon phosphors are expected to be used as green phosphors for white light-emitting devices that require color reproducibility because of their narrow spectrum width of about 55 nm and good color purity.
- the luminance is not so high that it is necessary to further increase the luminance.
- ⁇ -sialon phosphors are also prepared using powders of silicon nitride, aluminum nitride and active materials as starting materials, weighing and mixing the respective materials, and then sintering to a high temperature in a nitrogen-containing atmosphere.
- a method using a nitride material such as silicon nitride or aluminum nitride, which is currently known, as a starting material has not been able to obtain ⁇ -sialon phosphors having a sufficiently high luminance.
- the conventional method of synthesizing the ⁇ -sialon phosphor to which the rare earth is added is mixed with all oxides and nitride raw materials such as Si 3 N 4 , Si0 2 , A1N, AI2O3, Eu 2 O 3 , 1900 It was a method of synthesis in a nitrogen atmosphere of more than ° C.
- the positive silver elements other than Si and A1 forming SiAlON act as impurities. This can inhibit the crystallinity of ⁇ -sialon. This may cause a decrease in the luminance of the phosphor.
- a white light emitting device was realized by applying a yellow YAG phosphor to a light emitting device for the first time.
- CRI has recently been improved by using green and red colors.
- White light emitting devices have been developed.
- the green phosphor to be applied silicate phosphors and sulfide phosphors were used.
- the high temperature, thermal and chemical stability are low, phosphors using nitride phosphors have been actively studied.
- Nitride phosphors have Si 3 N 4 and SiAlON, which are used as high-temperature structural materials, as the host material, and the phosphors are added to the active material to realize phosphors. Since the high temperature light emitting property has an advantage, it is applied to a TV backlight, an illumination lamp and the like. However, these phosphors have a level of efficiency of 70% or less compared to YAG phosphors compared to the YAG phosphors, and thus, the luminance needs to be improved.
- One embodiment of the present invention provides a phosphor and a method of manufacturing the same.
- a phosphor according to an embodiment of the present invention has the following formula (1):
- X, y and z are 0.018 ⁇ X ⁇ 0.3, 0.3 ⁇ y ⁇ 0.75, 0.42 ⁇ z ⁇ .
- Re is a rare earth element
- z may be 0.50 to 0.75.
- z may be 0.60 to 0.70.

- the particle size of the phosphor changes depending on the concentration of oxygen.
- the concentration of oxygen It can be seen that when the excess amount is entered, the particle size becomes large as coarse particles. That is, the oxygen concentration in Figure 9a is 5.400 mol%, where the D50 value is 25 /, the oxygen concentration in Figure 9b is 4.616 mol%, where the D50 value is 15. Therefore, it can be seen that the value of D50 is smaller when the concentration of oxygen has a value similar to that of aluminum.
- the phosphor according to an embodiment of the present invention may have a D50 value in the range of 5 to 20 in particle size, and an average particle diameter of particles at a concentration of oxygen having the highest PL intensity may be applied to the light emitting device at about 10 (M).
- M 10
- the phosphor has been synthesized in size, the above description has been given based on the embodiments, which are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the present invention, and those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains may have essential characteristics. It will be appreciated that various modifications and alterations are not possible without departing from the scope of the invention, for example, each component specifically illustrated in the embodiments may be modified and implemented. Differences concerning modifications and uses will be construed as being included in the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims. .
