摘要
We examined non-stoichiometric CaAlxSi(7-3x)/4N3:Eu2+ phosphors that were intentionally prepared with x = 0.7 similar to 1.3 to identify the origin of the deconvoluted Gaussian components that constitute the emission spectra of stoichiometric CaAlSiN3:Eu2+ phosphors. The Al/Si molar ratio around the Eu2+ activator caused the deconvoluted Gaussian peaks. The Eu2+ activator sites in Al-rich environments gave rise to the lower-energy emission peak, while those in Si-rich environments were related to the higher-energy emission peaks. Active energy transfer from the Eu2+ activator site in the Si-rich environment to the Eu2+ activator site in the Al-rich environment was confirmed. Particle swarm optimization was employed to estimate the nine unknown decision parameters that control the energy transfer process. All of the decision parameters were estimated within the range of reasonable values. (C) 2010 Optical Society of America
