Improvement of self-activated luminescence from introduced cation disorder in Sr₆ V₂ O₁₁

Adjusting the elemental composition of a host is regarded to be an effective strategy to tune its luminescent properties such as peak energy, emission efficiency, and bandwidth. In this work, the cation substitution of (Ba 2+ → Sr 2+ ) in self‐activated Sr 6 V 2 O 11 was conducted to investigate the luminescence modification. All the phosphors of Sr 6‐6 x Ba 6 x V 2 O 11 ( x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5) were synthesized by the traditional...
