Abstract

The transition metal Mn2+ ions doped materials have been widely reported for the luminescent properties for its broad emission band from green to red due to the spin-forbidden 4T1→6A1 transitions. To investigate the luminescent properties of Mn2+ ions in cuspidine glass, the 3CaO-CaF2-2SiO2 glasses doped with different Mn2+ concentration were prepared with traditional melt-quenching method. The luminescence emission spectra, excitation spectra and luminescence decay curves were recorded and analyzed. The tunable broadband emission from orange to red was obtained. The luminescence intensity and lifetime of Mn2+: 4T1 level showed different quenching points with the increasing of Mn2+ concentration. All these results indicate that Mn2+ doped 3CaO-CaF2-2SiO2 glass could be applied as light conversion material for solid-state lighting applications.
