Abstract
The transparent ZnGa2O4 glass-ceramics doped with Mn2+/Cr3+ ions were prepared by a one-step crystallization method. The visible light fluorescence properties of Mn2+ ions in 6-coordination and 4-coordination environments and the visible light fluorescence properties of Mn2+/Cr3+ ions co-doped in transparent ZnGa2O4 glass-ceramics were studied. The results manifest that in the parent glass, Mn2+ ions mainly occupy the network former in the form of Hexa-coordination, and the luminescence center can emit orange-yellow light at ~600 nm. In transparent ZnGa2O4 glass-ceramics, Mn2+ ions and Cr3+ ions appear at the four-coordination site (Zn site) and six-coordination site (Ga site) in ZnGa2O4 spinel, respectively, and they can radiate green (510 nm) and red light (688 nm), respectively. An energy transfer mechanism of Mn2+→Cr3+ exists in ZnGa2O4: Mn2+/Cr3+ and different colors of luminescence can be produced by changing the molar ratios of components and test conditions. CIE results show that Mn2+-single-doped parent glass and glass-ceramics can be used in orange-yellow and green light displays, while Mn2+/Cr3+ co-doped transparent ZnGa2O4 glass-ceramics can be used as ideal materials for the green and red light displays.
