摘要
Commercial phosphors always require fewer impurities and higher crystallinity, but sometimes it is difficult or strict to synthesize a pure phase compound. Indeed, if the practical application is not influenced, it is acceptable to synthesize a kind of phosphors with diphase matrix that have similar structure and photoluminescence properties. In present work, we designed and synthesized a series of（1-x）BaMSiO4·xBa2 MSi2 O7：Eu（M = Zn2＋, Mg2＋） diphase phosphors which contained two phases BaMSiO4（hexagonal, P63） and Ba2 MSi2 O7（monoclinic, C2/c） by a high temperature solid-state reaction in air condition. The structures and luminescence properties related to the phase transform from BaMSiO4 to Ba2 MSi2 O7 were analyzed carefully. The results show that the self-reduction ability of Eu3＋ is not the best in above four compounds, respectively. But it reaches the maximum and gets the green emission under the UV lamp when the matrix is in a proper ratio of two phases, which suggests that the heterostructure between the two crystals（BaMSiO4 and Ba2 MSi2 O7） improves the self-reduction process of the diphase.The possible mechanism of the tunable europium valence and the luminescent properties in（1-x）BaMSiO4·xBa2 MSi2 O7：Eu phosphors were discussed in detail.
