A series of SrZrO3 : Eu3+ nano phosphors synthesized by a modified high‐temperature solid‐state reaction method. The structural, functional vibration groups, optical, morphological, luminescence and quantum yield studies were characterized through XRD, FTIR, UV, 'SEM & HR‐TEM' and PL analyses respectively. The SrZrO3 : Eu3+ phosphor has a perovskite orthorhombic structure and emits intense red emission around 612 nm when it is excited under 465 nm and covers NUV light range. The calculated average lifetime indicates the nature of the allowed emission transition in Eu3+ (2.44 μs). The calculated colour purity and Commission International del' Eclairagethe (CIE) chromaticity coordinates are 97.9 % and (0.5894, 0.4031) respectively. The observed quantum yield and thermal stability for the SrZrO3 : Eu3+ (9 mol %) phosphor are 22 % and 87 % at 423 K, respectively. These obtained results suggest that SrZrO3 : Eu3+ (9 mol %) phosphor would meliorate for red‐emitting phosphor in profound RGB‐based pc‐WLED applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
