摘要

The long afterglow phosphor CaAl₂O₄:Eu²⁺, Nd³⁺was prepared by high temperature solid-state reaction method under reducing atmosphere. The effect of flux H₃BO₃ on the crystal structure and luminescent properties of the phosphor was studied. Results of XRD indicate that the volume of unit cell becomes smaller, and then the crystal field is changed, which results in the easier transition of 4f-5d. On the other hand, H₃BO₃ addition is in favor of the formation of pure phase CaAl₂O₄. Both behaviors enhance the emission intensity of the obtained phosphor to some extent. But its emission peak does not shift evidently because the energy level difference of 4f-5d does not be changed obviously. Moreover, H₃BO₃ also affects the afterglow properties of this phosphor. The optimized content of H₃BO₃ is 0.06 mol/mol for the obtained phosphor with excellent properties.
