Popis: Crystalline SrWO4 was synthesized at room temperature using a co-precipitation method. To use the SrWO4 as a phosphor, green and red phosphors were synthesized by doping with Tb3+ and Eu3+ rare earth ions. The synthesized samples had a tetragonal structure, and the main peak (112) phase was clearly observed. When the sample was excited using the absorption peak observed in the ultraviolet region, SrWO4:Tb3+ showed an emission spectrum of 544 nm, and SrWO4:Eu3+ showed an emission spectrum of 614 nm. When Tb3+ and Eu3+ ions were co-doped to realize various colors, a yellow-emitting phosphor was realized as the doping concentration of Eu3+ ions increased. When the synthesized phosphor was scattered on a glass substrate with fingerprints, as used in the field of fingerprint recognition, the fingerprint was revealed by green, red, and yellow emissions in response to a UV lamp.
