title = "A novel orange-red emitting NaCaVO4:Sm3+ phosphor for solid state lighting",
abstract = "The samarium doped NaCaVO4 phosphor was synthesized by the combustion method. The X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed that the phosphor powder crystallized as orthorhombic structure belonging to space group Cmcm. From Williamson-Hall analysis the grain size and microstrain in the powder was estimated. The Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) studies further validated the formation of vanadate phase of the phosphor. Photoluminescence (PL) study revealed that the phosphor could be efficiently excited by UV-VIS from 200nm to 500nm. The 565nm, 602nm, 648nm and 713nm emissions were ascribed to 4G5/2 to 6HJ (J = 5/2, 7/2, 9/2 and 11/2) transitions of the Sm3+ ion. The present material may be explored as a novel phosphor to be excited by UV light emitting diodes (LEDs) chips for solid-state lighting and display applications.",
