Abstract
(Zn, Cd)S: Au, Cl mixed phosphors were prepared in nitrogen atmosphere with various concentrations of impurities. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra were obtained. The peak of the PL spectrum shifts towards longer-wavelength values with increasing replacement of zinc by cadmium in the host lattice. The PL efficiency was found to decrease with increasing. CdS content whereas lattice constants increased with increasing CdS concentration.
