In this respect, we report on the screening of a Eu 2+ -doped SrO–B 2 O 3 –P 2 O 5 system by a combinatorial chemistry technique so that combinatorial libraries could be developed in terms of luminance and color chromaticity. As a quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) model, a continuous luminance map was obtained as a function of composition using an artificial neural network trained using the results from the combinatorial screening. Promising photoluminescence was found in a lineshape composition range in the SrO–B 2 O 3 –P 2 O 5 ternary library, and the samples in this composition range were crystallized into a single major phase of Sr 6 BP 5 O 20 :Eu 2+ in an I4 ¯ c2 symmetry with cell parameters a=9.784 and c=19.01 . The luminance of Sr 6 BP 5 O 20 :Eu 2+ was 2.8 times as high as BAM under vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) excitation and underwent negligible thermal degradation, even though the CIE color chromaticity was somewhat poor.}, pages = {H213--H218}, title = {Combinatorial Screening and QSAR Modeling in the SrO-B2O3-P2O5 Ternary System to Search for Thermally Stable Blue Phosphors for PDPs}, volume = {152}, year = {2005} }
