  • Patent number: 8460427
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing metal nano particles having a hollow structure is provided. First, a suitable reducing agent is added into a first metal salt solution, and first metal ions are reduced to form first metal nano particles. Next, after the reducing agent is decomposed, a second metal salt solution with a higher reduction potential than that of the first metal is added. Then, the first metal particles are oxidized to form first metal ions when the second metal ions are reduced on the surface of the first metal by electrochemical oxidation reduction reaction, and thus, second metal nano particles having a hollow structure and a larger surface area are obtained. The method is simple and the metal nano particles with uniform particle size are obtained by this method.

  • Publication number: 20130009096
    Abstract: An oxynitride phosphor and a method of manufacturing the same are revealed. The formula of the oxynitride phosphor is Ba3-x-ySi6O12N2:Cey, Eux (0?x?1, 0?y?1). Europium (Eu) and cerium (Ce) are luminescent centers. The oxynitride phosphor is synthesized by solid-state reaction. The oxynitride phosphor is excited by vacuum ultraviolet light with a wavelength range of 130 nm to 300 nm or ultraviolet to visible light with a wavelength range of 350 nm to 550 nm. The emission wavelength of the oxynitride phosphor is ranging from 400 nm to 700 nm. Thus the oxynitride phosphor can be applied to plasma display panels and ultraviolet (UV) excitation sources. The energy transfer occurs between Ce and Eu of the oxynitride phosphor and the oxynitride phosphor has a blue light emission peak and a green light emission peak. Thus color rendering index of the oxynitride phosphor is improved.
