Abstract

(CeTb)MgAl11O19 (CTMA) phosphor particles were prepared by high-temperature spray pyrolysis from spray solutions with various types of flux materials. The particles prepared from spray solutions with ammonium dihydrogen phosphate and lithium carbonate fluxes had spherical shape and filled morphology at temperatures of 900°C and 1650°C. On the other hand, the particles prepared from spray solutions without flux material had hollow and fractured morphology at temperatures of 900°C and 1650°C. The melting of flux material formed the spherical intermediate particles with filled morphology. These spherical intermediate particles were formed from spray solutions with flux material that transformed into spherical CTMA phosphor particles with filled morphology at a high-preparation temperature. The phosphor particles prepared by spray pyrolysis from the spray solution with appropriate flux materials at 1650°C had high photoluminescence intensities, spherical shape, and filled morphology.
