What is Green luminescence from Mn ions in ZnO–GeO2 glasses prepared by sol–gel method and their glass ceramics about?

Zn 2 SiO 4 :Mn 2+ is one of the green light luminants used for cathode ray tubes of televisions. Recently, optical materials emitting strong visible light under lower energy excitation have been expected. To obtain new luminants of high quality, we prepared Mn ion doped ZnO -GeO 2 glasses and glass ceramics from solutions of (CH 3 COO) 2 ZnI2H 2 O, Ge(OC 2 H 5 ) 4 , and Mn(NO 3 ) 2 I6H 2 O by a sol -gel method and the subsequent heat treatment up to 1000 -C, respectively. Materials of the system xMnO -yZnO -(100 À y)GeO 2 (x = 0 -5, y = 0 -40) were obtained and their luminescence, excitation, and X-band electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra as well as X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns were measured. Under UV irradiation of 254 or 365 nm, the glass ceramics showed green luminescence at 535 nm, which may be due to the 4 T 1 Y 6 A 1 transition of Mn 2+ ions incorporated in Zn 2 GeO 4 polycrystals. The intensity of this green luminescence increased and the crystallinity of Zn 2 GeO 4 became high with increasing the heat-treatment temperature up to 1000 -C. In materials with low crystallinity and large amount of MnO, we observed a broad, featureless ESR signal of g = 2.01. On the other h
