Abstract:卟e synthesis of BaMgA110O17:Eu (BAM)phosphors using the sol—gel method and their luminescence proper—
ties were reported.The blue—light emitting BAM was synthesized using citric acid and ethylene glycol as chel ̄ing materi— als.Emission of blue.1ight was obtained from these phosphors. e luminescent intensity increases as the temperature of heat treatment is increased.This study investigated the effects of the molar ratio of ethylene glycol to citric acid( val—
ue).with respect to the phase formation and luminescence properties of BAM.卟e variation of the value resulted in the
change of the sol—gel reaction mechanism and the microstructures of the resultant powders.An increase in value leads to an increase in the rate of BAM phase formation.The photoluminescent intensity of the prepared phosphors increases with heating temperatures because of enhanced crystallization.

Aluminate phosphors activated with rare earth are
especially stable and efficient in general lighting of lamps….With the recent advancement.aluminate
phosphors are intensely fcIcased on Eu“一doped BAM
phosphors for application in plasma display panels (PDPs)[ ].Barium magnesium aluminate BaMgAl10
O17(BAM)is classified into l3一alumina structure with a
space group P63/mmc .The diferent sites occupied
by the europium ions in the BAM structure have been studied by several researchers_6一lOJ.Boolchand et a1. reported that the Eu”sites occupy the Beevers—Ross.
anti—Beevers—Ross.and the mid—oxygen sites in BAM: Eu“L6J.The host lattice plays an important role for
varying the luminescence properties of the phos— phors_llI 12].Howe et a1.[ ]investigated the host—lat—
tice emission and energy transfer in undoped and Eu—
doped BAM.They reported that the BAM host lattice showed an emission under vacuum ultraviolet(vuv)
excitation and this result was assigned to Ba—O groups.
BAM phosphors are usually prepared by the sol—
id-state reaction method.In this kind of process, high—temperature heating is required.It is reported
that an increase in heating temperature leads to an in—
creased particle size and the surface morphology is also varied[ 引.The Pechini sol—gel method utilizes citric
acid and ethylene glycol derived polyester resin,com—
prising branched polymer for the synthesis.This meth—
od has the ability to synthesize muhicomponent oxides
with a good homogeneity at a decreased temperature of heat treaⅡnent【 4,15]. Several I.eseaI℃hers have used the method to prepare BAM:Eu phosphors[16.17]. The effects of ethylene glycol and citric acid ratio on
the phase formation and luminescent properties of BAM:Eu“phosphors have not been studied in de一

tail.Accordingly,the purpose of this study is to in— vestigate the effects of the molar ratio of ethylene gly—
col to citric acid( value)on the synthesized process
of BAM:Eu“phosphors.The influence of heating
conditions on the microstructures and luminescent
properties of the obtained phosphors was also studied
here.
Europium—ion—doped barium magnesium alumi—
nate(BAM:Eu )powders were prepared by the sol—
gel process using citric acid(Nacalai,guaranteed re—
agent grade)as a chelating agent and ethylene glycol (Nacalai,guaranteed reagent grade)as a polymerizing
agent.As shown in Fig.1,barium nitrate(Janssen
Chimica;No.2O.325.42,99%)。aluminum nitrate
nonahydrate(Sigma—Aldrich;No.237973,98%,
ACS reagent grade),magnesium nitrate hexahydrate
(Nacalai teaque;guaranteed reagent grade),and eu— ropium oxide(Aldrich;No.289221,99.9%)were
used as starting materials.Europium oxide was dis—
solved in nitric acid solution(4O%nitric acid).The
