Phosphors Based on Phosphates of NaZr2(PO4)3 and Langbeinite Structural Families

Resumo

The review covers aspects of modeling the composition and luminescent properties of phosphates of NaZr₂(PO₄)₃ (NZP) and langbeinite structural families. Based on the analysis of phosphates structure, a plausible algorithm of the use of crystal chemistry data for modeling compositions, structure, and properties of new compounds is proposed. The following properties determined by requirements to materials for the chosen purposes are studied: behavior on heating and in water systems, luminescence, and biocompatibility. Prospects for the use of such data for solving various problems of materials science, LED technologies, bioimaging, and X-ray induced photodynamic therapy of oncological diseases are shown.
