A red phosphor with a broad excitation band in blue region and sharp emission peaks in red region is needed for compensating the red components of white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) by converting blue light with a yellow phosphor Y3Al5O12:Ce3+ (YAG:Ce). The red phosphor LiSrAlF6:Mn4+ (LSAF:Mn) with morphology of flaky particles about 50 mu m in diameter has been synthesized by an ion-exchange reaction route at room-temperature in air. The as-synthesized phosphors were characterized by x-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectra. The excitation spectrum of LSAF:Mn shows a broad-band excitation from 400 to 500 nm that is due to the spin-allowed transition of (4)A(2g) -> T-4(2g) of Mn4+, indicating a potential application for solid state lighting. The optimal PL intensity of the phosphor LSAF:Mn has been obtained by optimizing the synthetic parameters. (C) 2018 Published by Elsevier B.V.
