dc.description.abstractThe aqueous degradation of Eu2+-activated and Dy3+-codoped strontium aluminate (SrAl2O4:Eu2+, Dy3+, SA2-Green) long afterglow phosphors synthesized from solid-state reaction and coated with nanoscale metal oxide protective layers (<= 12 nm) via atomic layer deposition (ALD) is investigated. Uncoated phosphor powders degrade rapidly upon water immersion and lose their green phosphorescence within 48 hours of water exposure. Postmortem investigations reveal hydration and decomposition of the SrAl2O4 phase. ALD of 10 nm Al2O3 or 12 nm TiO2 is found to significantly improve the powder's resistance to aqueous degradation. All ALD-coated powders show minimal structural and chemical degradation and retain phosphoresence after 48 hours of water immersion. This enhanced durability offers a new pathway for applying long afterglow phosphors to outdoor applications like roadway markings or safety signage and for their incorporation into more eco-friendly waterborne coatings.en_US
