RESEARCH AND INVESTIGATION OF CATHODOLUMINESCENT PHOSPHOR FILMS PREPARED BY SOLUTION SPRAYING

Abstract

Effort was made to determine the capabilities and necessary compromises in preparing cathodoluminescent films by a chemical solution spray process. This spray process is capable of forming cathodoluminescent films in situ on substrates which can withstand a spray temperature of 300 C and a heat treatment temperature of 600 C. Desired dopants may be incorporated by adding them to the spray solution. The cathodoluminescent film compositions investigated were: CdWO4, CdWO4:Sm, CdWO4:Ce, ZnWO4, Zn2SiO4:Mn, CdS:Ag, ZnS:Ag, and ZnCdS:Ag. Properties of these films were evaluated by x-ray diffraction analysis, by photo- and cathodoluminescent brightness and spectral emission, and by thermoluminescent glowcurve studies.
