Abstract
We report an organic solvent-assisted (OSA) co-precipitation strategy for the production of Mn4+-activated K2TiF6 phosphor. The phosphor particle size was controlled through the selection of organic solvents with an alcohol functional group and different carbon chain lengths used in the synthesis. The synergistic effect of the organic solvent and hydrofluoric acid results in large smoothed hexagonal-shaped crystal sheets of particles that become larger as the carbon chain length of the organic solvent increases. The photoluminescence (PL) properties of K2TiF6:Mn powders strongly depend on the size and thickness of the particles. The addition of n-butanol during the synthesis increases the emission intensity of K2TiF6:Mn by 208%. The PL quantum efficiency of phosphors prepared using the n-butanol-assisted strategy is much higher (98.2%) than that of conventionally prepared phosphors (89.9%). Our findings demonstrate a way to prepare the K2TiF6:Mn phosphor with targeted morphology and very high quantum efficiency and also provide the route for the optimization of all Mn4+-activated fluoride phosphors used in white light-emitting diodes.

Abstract
Herein, high-efficiency Nb-based oxyfluoride K3(NbOF5)(HF2):Mn4+ and fluoride K2NbF7:Mn4+ phosphors were successfully synthesized using different amounts of HF acid solutions by a simple co-precipitation method. XRD, SEM and EDS were used to characterize the crystal structure, morphology and elemental composition of the phosphors. The emission spectra, excitation spectra and luminescence decay curves were used to study the luminescence characteristics of the samples. The thermal stability of the phosphors was tested and the mechanism of temperature quenching was discussed. Meanwhile, the moisture resistance and application of the phosphors were investigated in detail. The results show that the K3(NbOF5)(HF2):Mn4+ phosphor has stronger luminous intensity, lower color temperature, and better moisture resistance compared with the K2NbF7:Mn4+ phosphor. The correlated color temperature (CCT) and color rendering index (CRI) of warm white LEDs can be significantly improved by using the K3(NbOF5)(HF2):Mn4+ (CCT = 3430 K, CRI = 87.3) phosphor as a red light component. So the K3(NbOF5)(HF2):Mn4+ phosphor has broader application prospect in the field of warm white LEDs.
