A fully integrated nanotubular yellow-green phosphor from an environmentally friendly eutectic solvent

Abstract

(Figure Presented) Glowing with pride: An activator-free gallium oxalatophosphite is a new class of color conversion phosphors for NUV and blue light-emitting diodes. It is synthesized by using an organic template and an environmentally friendly eutectic solvent in a reaction that shows efficient atom economy. The resulting material has a tubular structure (see picture) and intriguing luminescence properties. © 2009 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
