Abstract
Strong blue-green light emitting MgSrAl10O17:Eu2+,Mn2+ phosphor was synthesized by a low-temperature initiated, self-propagating and gas producing combustion process in a very short time (<5Â min). Structural characterization of the luminescent material was studied with X-ray diffraction analysis and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis. The absorption spectrum exhibits bands due to Eu2+ and Mn3+ ions. The excitation spectrum shows a peak at 337Â nm. Upon excitation at 337Â nm, the emission spectrum exhibits an intense band centered at 462Â nm due to transitions from the 4f65d1 to the 4f7 configuration of the Eu2+ ions, whereas sharp peak at 513Â nm attributed to 4T1â6A1 transition of Mn2+ ions. The X-band EPR spectra of MgSrAl10O17:Eu2+,Mn2+ showed the presence of Eu2+ and Mn2+ ions.
