    • Abstract

       

      This article reports photoluminescence in Eu$^{3+}$ and Dy$^{3+}$ doped Ca$_2$SrAl$_2$O$_6$ aluminate phosphor. Here combustion technique is used to synthesize a series of phosphors. The excitation spectra of Ca$_2$SrAl$_2$O$_6$:Eu$^{3+}$phosphor appears at 396 nm, under which we get a prominent emission bands at 590–596 nm and another peak located at 616 nm that corresponds to the orange-red region. These spectral bands are assigned due to ${}^5$D$_0$${\rightarrow}$${}^7$F$_1$, 7F2 electronic transitions of activator Eu$^{3+}$ ion, respectively. Whereas, Ca$_2$SrAl$_2$O$_6$:Dy$^{3+}$ phosphor shows two bands that correspond to 476 and 573 nm when excited by 352 nm. These two emission peaks correspond to the well-known ${}^4$F$_{9/2}$${\rightarrow}$${}^6$H$_{15/2}$, ${}^6$H$_{13/2}$ transitions of rare-earth Dy$^{3+}$ ion, respectively. Thus, from the observed photoluminescence properties, it is seen that prepared aluminate phosphor may be a suitable material for solid-state lighting.
