This book was written to introduce the reader to the science and art of preparing inorganic luminescent materials, namely "phosphors". In order to understand how and why luminescent materials exhibit such specific intrinsic properties, one needs to be thoroughly versed in the science of the solid state.
Contents:
Introduction to the Solid State 1
The Point Defect
Mechanisms of Nucleation. Solid State Diffusion.
Measuring Particle Size and Growing Single Crystals
Optical and Electronic Properties Of Solids
Design of Phosphors
Current Phosphor Device Technology
