摘要
Electroluminescence (EL) properties of AIN:Tb thin film EL device (TFELD) prepared on a glass substrate by a rf-magnetron sputtering method have been studied. The AIN:Tb emission layer consists of hexagonal (110)-oriented poly-crystals of AIN with a high transparency in visible region. Four emission peaks originating from D-5(4) -> F-7(j) (j = 6, 5, 4, 3) transitions of Tb3+ were found in both photoluminescence (PL) and EL spectra of the AIN:Tb thin film. The peak emission intensity of the D-5(4) -> F-7(6) transitions is almost the same magnitude with that of the D-5(4) -> F-7(5) transitions, being largely different from the intensity ratio of Tb(3+)in other host materials.
