A kind of aluminium borate base blue colour fluorescent powder, preparation method and application
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of phosphor, particularly a kind of by the fluorescent material of ultraviolet excitation, preparation method and application thereof, belong to rare earth luminescent material technical field.
Background technology
The successful research and development of high brightness GaN blue LED and the white light LEDs of realizing have thus been described as maximum light source revolution since the Edison invented incandescent light that continues.Because its photoelectric efficiency having is high, the life-span is long, volume is little, power is low, the advantage such as solid-state energy-conservation and environmental protection, white light LEDs product is just attracting increasing concern.Energy-saving illumination is one of body matter of low-carbon economy.And rare-earth luminescent material is the critical material in electricity-saving lamp and white light LEDs light fixture, it has great importance for the performance index such as luminous efficiency, work-ing life, colour temperature, colour rendering index of improving such LED.
At present, the method for utilizing LED technology to realize white light mainly contains three kinds: the direct mixed-color method of three-primary color LED, ultraviolet transformation approach and blue chip add the method for yellow fluorescent powder.Wherein, the direct mixed-color method of three-primary color LED is directly the three primary colours chip portfolio of transmitting red, green, blue wavelength to be packaged together, and forms multi-chip type white light LEDs, by spacing color mixed principle, mate in accordance with the appropriate ratio, make the light of three kinds of colors be mixed into white light.But the weakness of this method is its mounting structure more complicated, the driving voltage of LED of all kinds, luminous efficiency, light distribution characteristic difference, need to pass through the intensity of current setting red, green, blue three primary colours, and circuit is more complicated on realizing.The method that blue chip adds yellow fluorescent powder is that the blue light (approximately 450 nanometer) that GaN base LED chip is sent carrys out excitation rare-earth fluorescent material YAG (Y

At present, can be used for being excited the blue colour fluorescent powder of use also few by ultraviolet LED.Wherein the more blue colour fluorescent powder of use adopts divalent europium (Eu conventionally
2+) as luminescence center, mainly take high temperature solid-state method as main.As commercial blue colour fluorescent powder BaMgAl
