Thermal quenching is one of the most key challenges of ultraviolet converted white light-emitting diodes (UV converted WLEDs) when they operate at high driving current, in which the phosphors are subjected to the luminescence losses resulting from non-radiative transitions with augmenting temperature. Herein, novel single-phased Bi3+,Sm3+-doped SrY2O4(SYO) phosphors with abnormal thermal quenching property were successfully prepared applying a high-temperature solid-state strategy. X-ray diffraction, luminescent behaviors, lifetimes and temperature-dependent emission properties were employed to study the obtained powder materials. Under UV light irradiation, tunable emission from blue to red based on the energy transfer (ET) from Bi3+to Sm3+via a dipole-dipole mechanism is realized. Significantly, the obtained phosphors do not display thermal quenching even up to 573 K (300 °C). And they exhibit tiny chromaticity shift even at high temperature, indicative of excellent color stability. These phenomena may be interpreted by the ET from defect levels to Bi3+excited states, which was identified by thermoluminescence measurements. These results indicate potential applications of SYO:Bi3+,Sm3+in UV converted WLEDs.
