Overgangsmetaalgedoteerde fosforen voor LEDs: Een studie naar temperatuurafhankelijke luminescentie van mangaan en chroom

Abstract

The luminescence properties of various transition metal ions in inorganic host lattices have been studied in this thesis, with a strong emphasis on their temperature-dependent behavior also in relation with application as phosphors in white light LEDs for lighting and broad band NIR LEDs for sensing. The following paragraphs present an overview of the key results from each chapter. This is followed by an outlook on future research topics and challenges.
