A blue-emitting phosphor - Ca2BN2F:Eu2+ was synthesized by a solid state reaction. Ca2BN2F crystallizes in the orthorhombic system with space group Pnma (No. 62) and Z = 4. The Ca2BN2F:Eu2+ exhibites broad emission and excitation bands corresponding to the allowed f→d electronic transition of Eu2+. Concentration quenching of Eu2+ emission was observed for 1 mol% due to the energy transfer between Eu2+ ions via electric multipolar interaction with the critical transfer distance of about 25.11 Å. In addition, the thermal stability and applications of blue-emitting Ca2BN2F:Eu2+ phosphors in n-UV LED have been firstly discussed in this study. The preliminary data demonstrate that the novel blue-emitting phosphor exhibits the potential to be an n-UV convertible phosphor.
