Abstract
The green emitting phosphor based on manganese activated zinc silicate was successfully synthesized by the sol – gel method using hydrochloric acid. The suitable molar ratio of the initial components is Zn(CH3COO)2: MnSO4: TEOS = 1.98: 0.02: 1 corresponding to the product formula Zn1.98Mn0,02SiO4. The suitable pH value for the gelation is 3, ratio of water phase: ethanol phase = 1:1 and the product when calcining the obtained gel at 10000C for 60 minutes has highest luminescence intensity. The synthesized phosphor consists of Zn2SiO4 with rhombohedral structure and emits a green light at the 525 nm wavelength when excited by the 325 nm UV radiation. The produced sample has spherical form with the particles size being 100 nm.
