The invention provides single matrix
white light fluorescent
powder for a
white light LED and a preparation method thereof. The
chemical composition of the fluorescent
powder is Ca2SiO3Cl2: xEu2+, yMn2+, wherein the value ranges of the x and the y are 0.5 to 3 percent. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: dissolving
calcium nitrate tetrahydrate and
anhydrous calcium chloride into
distilled water to obtain solution A; preparing
europium nitrate solution B; dissolving the solution B and
manganese nitrate tetrahydrate into the solution A together, and stirring the mixture uniformly to obtain solution C; adding
anhydrous ethanol into the solution C, stirring the solution uniformly, then adding tetraethoxysilane into the solution, adjusting the pH to between 2 and 3, and stirring the mixture for 1 hour in a 80 DEG C water bath to obtain precursor
sol; preparing the precursor
sol into wet
sol and then preparing the wet sol into dry sol, performing
hydrothermal reaction on the dry sol in a reaction kettle, and naturally cooling the
reaction product to
room temperature after the reaction is finished; and finally, centrifuging and washing the
reaction product to obtain a final product. The fluorescent
powder prepared by the method emits three bands of 428 nanometers, 500 nanometers and 581 nanometers, and the three bands are superposed to generate
white light for emitting; the fluorescent powder has small grain size and uniform distribution, and is like
spheroid; and the preparation method is simple and has low
energy consumption and low
equipment requirement.
