Rapid Synthesis of Eu2+ and Dy3+ Co-doped SrAl2O4 Thick Film by Chemical Vapor Deposition and Its Photoluminescence Properties [PDF]

(Received October 31, 2025; Accepted December 26, 2025)

Keywords: SrAl2O4, chemical vapor deposition, thick film phosphor, afterglow, luminescence

Eu2+ and Dy3+ co-doped SrAl2O4 (Eu2+, Dy3+:SrAl2O4) has a wide range of applications as a persistent phosphor. We demonstrate the rapid synthesis of Eu2+, Dy3+:SrAl2O4 thick film phosphors grown by laser-assisted CVD at deposition temperatures of 1010–1163 K, total chamber pressures of 280–6000 Pa, and Sr molar ratios in precursor vapor of 28.0–93.2 at%. A (100)-oriented Eu2+, Dy3+:SrAl2O4 thick film was epitaxially grown on a c-cut sapphire substrate. Under UV irradiation, the film exhibited a green emission originating from 4f65d1→4f7 transitions of Eu2+ ions.
