Abstract
Eu3+/Dy3+ single-doped and co-doped 6SrO-3Al2O3-91SiO2 and 12SrO-6Al2O3-82SiO2 glass and glass-ceramics were synthesized successfully by a sol-gel method. The prepared samples were characterized by the X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, photoluminescent spectra and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The effect of annealing temperature, doped ions and matrix component on the structure and the photoluminescent characteristics was systematically studied. The higher temperature was helpful to form nanocrystals and the amount of SrO and Al2O3 could better disperse the rare earth ions in matrix at suitable temperature, and both of them could improve the luminescent intensity. Meanwhile, the doped ions could change the luminescent color by single, codoped and energy transfer. The Sr2SiO4 nanocrystals were observed in silicates glasses and became larger with the increase of the annealing temperature and the luminous efficiency of rare-earth (RE) ions could be enhanced when the samples changed from glass state to glass-ceramic state. The results indicated that the photoluminescent properties could be changed through controlling the doped ions, annealing temperature and matrix component.
