SiO2 fluorescent nanofiber film incorporating Eu3+-doped for inorganic red light-emitting diode

Recently, the application of rare earth elements in LEDs has attracted widespread attention. This article conducts in-depth research on rare earth fluorescent nanofiber membrane materials. Firstly, Eu 3+ , 2-thenoyltrifluomacetonate (tta), and 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) undergo a complexation reaction to form the Eu(tta) 3 Phen complexes. The highly efficient fluorescent hybrid material SiO 2 @Eu(tta) 3 Phen prepared by using a straightforward doping method to mix the Eu(tta) 3 phen complexes with synthetic silica nanoparticles. Fluorescent nanofiber membranes that emit uniform red light was prepared by loading SiO 2 @Eu(tta) 3 Phen onto PVA nanofiber membrane (PNM) and SiO 2 nanofiber film (SNF) by filtration. After calculation, the loading amount of FSNF and FPNM were 55.6 % and 38.4 %, respectively. It was found that SiO 2 fluorescent nanofiber film (FSNF) had better fluorescence performance than PVA fluorescent nanofiber membrane (FPNM) under excitation at 384 nm wavelength. FSNF and FPNM were applied to LED components, both of which exhibited excellent fluorescence. The chromaticity coordinate (x, y) of FSNF is (0.6545, 0.3418), the correlated color temperature (CCT) is 1000K. The chromaticity coordinate ( x , y ) of FPNM is (0.6496, 0.3396), with a correlated color temperature (CCT) of 1000K. However, FSNF has a significant improvement in the persistence of ultraviolet irradiation compared to FPNM. These findings demonstrate that the developed FSNF have tremendous potential in white LEDs.
