摘 要:Lutetium aluminum garnet (LuAG) precursors doped with different Pr^3+ concentration (0.25at.%, 0.5at.%, 1.0at.%, 3.0at.%, 5.0at.%) were synthesized via a co-precipitation method using ammonium hydrogen carbonate as precipitant. The phase evolution and morphology of the precursor were characterized with X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The resultant LuAG:Pr^3+ powder was sintered into translucent ceramic without any additives in vacuum at 1150 ℃ and then in nitrogen atmosphere at 1700 ℃. spectra of LuAG:Pr^3+ powder and ceramic were measured at room temperature in vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) and ultraviolet (VU) region. For the 5d-4f transition of Pr^3+ ions, dominant emission of ceramic samples peaking round 311 um had higher luminescence intensity. And the host absorption in ceramic samples was not as intensive as that in powder samples. The luminescent intensity of LuAG:Pr^3+ varied with the Pr^3+ contents and the quenching concentration was about 1.0at.% for ceramic and 3.0at.% for powder, which was much higher than 0.24at.% for LuAG:Pr^3+ single crystals. This phenomenon showed that the ceramic had some superiority over single crystals.Lutetium aluminum garnet (LuAG) precursors doped with different Pr^3+ concentration (0.25at.%, 0.5at.%, 1.0at.%, 3.0at.%, 5.0at.%) were synthesized via a co-precipitation method using ammonium hydrogen carbonate as precipitant.
