Highly luminescent Ca3Sc2Si3O12:Ce3+ silicate garnet nano- and microparticles with 50-70% photoluminescence quantum yields as efficient phosphor converters for white LEDs

Levchuk I., Schröppel F., Römling L., Osvet A., Khaidukov N., Zorenko Y., Van Deun R., Batentschuk M., Brabec C.J., University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, DE

Solid state lighting based upon a combination of violet/blue light emitting diodes (LEDs) and a phosphor converter created enormous commercial interest because of the potentially higher efficacies and long lifetimes of these light sources. Most [...]

Novel fatty-acid assisted co-precipitation method for synthesis of the SrAl2O4:Eu2+, Sm3+ storage phosphor nanoparticles

Levchuk I., Römling L., Steimle M., Osvet A., Batentschuk M., Winnacker A., Brabec C.J., University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, DE

Biological and medical imaging is a key-stone for in-vivo and in-vitro monitoring necessary for basic research and for medical diagnostics. Inorganic nanoparticles have already been established as fluorescence markers due to their high stability and [...]
