New Multicolor Tungstate-Molybdate Microphosphors as an Alternative to LED Components

Due to the ongoing need to create phosphors with the appropriate emission color for the production of light emitting diodes, we decided to synthesize a series of multicolour microphosphors with tunable visible emissions, depending on the composition of dopant ions. In this work, we investigated the...
