Abstract
A method for producing a photo-luminescent material, including the following steps: (1) producing, according to a sol-gel method, a sol and then a gel of first precursors of a first substance from the sol; (2) crushing the gel; (3) optionally, annealing the gel in order to form first particles of the first substance of which the average size is between 1 pm and 20 um; (4) producing a colloidal dispersion of second particles of a second substance, different from the first substance or identical to the first substance, of which the average size is between 5 nm and 400 nm; (5) mixing the colloidal dispersion with the sol in step (1) before forming the gel or with the first particles after step (3); and (6) annealing the mixture obtained in step (5), resulting in an increase in the compactness of the mixture, the average size of the second particles after annealing being between 100 nm and 900 nm. A photo-luminescent material including a mixture of first particles of a first photo-luminescent substance of which the average size is between 1 pm and 20 pm and second particles of a second photo-luminescent substance, different from the first photo-luminescent substance or identical to the first photo-luminescent substance, of which the average size is between 100 nm and 900 nm.
