Abstract  The CaYAlO4: Tb3+ green luminescent phosphors were synthesized by low temperature combustion using urea as fuel and ethylene glycol as complexing agent. The structures of the phosphors were analyzed by XRD to determine the optimum synthesis temperature and urea dosage. The morphology and luminescent effect of phosphors were observed and tested, the effects of the amount of Tb3+ doping on the luminescence properties of the phosphor were investigated. The results show that the optimum ratio of urea to CaYAlO4 is n(CH4N2O):n(Ca)=3:1, and the optimum synthesis temperature is 800 ℃. The synthesized samples are spherical particles with a diameter of about 15 nm. The excitation spectra of the phosphors is mainly composed of a broadband excitation band of O2-→Y3+, O2-→Tb3+, the excitation peak wavelength is 265 nm. The emission spectra consists of excitation peaks at 490, 545, 586 and 620 nm, which are derived from the 5D4 to 7FJ(J=6, 5, 4, 3) transition of Tb3+, respectively. The 545 nm transition intensity is the largest and the phosphor glows green. The optimum doping concentration of Tb3+ is 0.06%. The concentration quenching is caused by exchange interaction. Under the excitation of UV 265 nm, the color coordinate of the emission spectrum of CaY0.96AlO4: 0.06Tb3+ phosphor is (0.320, 0.363), which is located at the junction of green-yellow-white light on the CIE1931 chromaticity diagram, and it is a potential single-doped green luminescent material for LED.
