Abstract
An approach to designing the structure of Eu2+-containing silicate glass-crystalline materials was implemented for the first time, using which a rare-earth activator is introduced into Ba-containing silicates formed during glass crystallization. Eu2+-activated fluorine-containing glasses and glass-ceramics in the MgO–BaO–ZrO2–SiO2 system were synthesized, and their crystal structure and luminescence properties were studied. It was shown that the simultaneous incorporation of Eu into several different silicate crystals formed during the crystallization of glasses yields a material with a broad luminescence band in the visible part of the spectrum. A study of the luminescence excitation and emission spectra of glass demonstrated the possibility of excitation energy transfer from Eu2+ ions to Eu3+ ions. The approach proposed for the first time to designing the structure of glass-crystalline materials is quite promising for the further creation of new optical media used in high-power light-emitting diodes.
