The synthesis and properties of Ca3Sc2Si3O12:Ce3+ (CSSG) phosphor are utilized for the development of human‐centric lighting light‐emitting diodes (HCL‐LEDs)

Abstract

AbstractIn this study, cerium ion (Ce3+)‐doped calcium scandium silicate garnet (Ca3Sc2Si3O12, abbreviated CSSG) phosphors were successfully synthesized using the sol–gel method. The crystal phase, morphology, and photoluminescence properties of the synthesized phosphors were thoroughly investigated. Under excitation by a blue light‐emitting diode (LED) chip (450 nm), the CSSG phosphor displayed a wide emission spectrum spanning from green to yellow. Remarkably, the material exhibited exceptional thermal stability, with an emissivity ratio at 150°C to that at 25°C reaching approximately 85%. Additionally, the material showcased impressive optical performance when tested with a blue LED chip, including a color rendering index (CRI) exceeding 90, an R9 value surpassing 50, and a biological impact ratio (M/P) above 0.6. These noteworthy findings underscore the potential applications of CSSG as a white light‐converting phosphor, particularly in the realm of human‐centered lighting.
