description | Dy<sup>3+</sup>, Ce<sup>3+</sup> co-doped KY(CO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> phosphors with a monoclinic structure were synthesized using the hydrothermal method to create a fixed yellow-to-blue ratio emission. The [YO<sub>8</sub>] polyhedron, consisting of a Y atom and eight oxygen atoms, forms a relatively independent microstructure within the KY(CO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> host. Y<sup>3+</sup> ions are partially replaced by Ce<sup>3+</sup> or Dy<sup>3+</sup> ions to construct the [CeO<sub>8</sub>] or [DyO<sub>8</sub>] polyhedral fluorescence emission unit. The spectral measurements indicate that Ce<sup>3+</sup> and Dy<sup>3+</sup> can maintain relatively independent fluorescence emission characteristics in the KY(CO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> host. The yellow-to-blue intensity ratio of Dy<sup>3+</sup> remains close to 1 and does not change with the variation in the doping concentration of KY(CO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>:Dy<sup>3+</sup> and KY(CO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>:Dy<sup>3+</sup>,Ce<sup>3+</sup> phosphors. When Ce<sup>3+</sup> and Dy<sup>3+</sup> are co-doped with KY(CO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>, the emission intensities of Dy<sup>3+</sup> under 339 nm and 365 nm excitation increase by 8.43 and 2.32 times, respectively, through resonance energy transfer and cross-relaxation. All Ce<sup>3+</sup>-doped KY(CO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>:Dy<sup>3+</sup> phosphors can emit white light. Among them, the emitted light of KY(CO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>:3%Dy<sup>3+</sup>,5%Ce<sup>3+</sup> is closest to standard daylight. Therefore, a stable [YO<sub>8</sub>] polyhedral structure can be used to achieve more color tuning of light. |
