Abstract

Several Mn2+ doped persistent phosphors were synthesized and their optical properties were investigated. Pink or orange phosphorescence of SrMg(SiO3)2:Mn,Dy and (Sr,Ca)Mg(SiO3) 2:Mn,Dy was found to last for more than 10 minutes. Eu2+ presents efficient luminescence in the host SrMg(SiO3)2. When Eu2+ ions are co-doped with Mn2+ and Dy3+ into the silicate, as SrMg(SiO3)2:Mn,Eu,Dy, the phosphorescence is dominated by the blue emission from Eu2+ and the red emission from Mn2+ is absent. This can be explained by the assumption that the Mn2+ ions are not effective in trapping the excited electrons. In addition, red phosphorescence of Zn2P 2O7:Mn,Cu with the peak at 627 nm was also observed.
