Popis: Effects of crystal structure on the photoluminescence (PL) and photocurrent (PC) characteristics of Sr 1− x Ba x Al 2 O 4 : Eu 2+ , Ni 2+ phosphors were investigated as a function of Ba 2+ content (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) and/or type of doping ions. PL of the specimens was blue-shifted with Ba 2+ content. With increasing of Ba 2+ content, the PC of the specimens was increased up to x = 0.3 and then decreased. These results could be attributed to crystallinity and structural changes from monoclinic spinel (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.3) to hexagonal tridymite (0.4 ≤ x ≤ 0.5). With doping of Ni 2+ ion, the response time of PC was remarkably shortened while the intensity of PL was slightly decreased to the incident light, which are due to the formation of trap energy level in the band gap generate from Ni 2+ ion.
