Abstract:
ZnS: Cu: Cl phosphor prepared under a vacuum firing process is found to
give blue electroluminescence with emission peak at 460 nm which remams
unaltered with the frequency of the excitation voltage. Addition of excess
chlorine in the phosphor gives blue, green and red emission at 460, 520
and 640 run. The intensity of the blue band decreases and It fmally
disappears as chlorine concentration is increased. A scheme involving
three energy levels attributed to Cu2+, Cu+ and Cl- centres in Zns
explains the experimental results completely.
