Systematic study on the effect of post-annealling treatment on photoluminescence (PL) properties of the samples under various europium ions doping concentrations were carried out. XRD patterns indicate that the samples show an amorphous matrix structure, and the SEM patterns show that the samples present a multi-hole loosen structure, and a rod structure after high-temperature annealling treatment (800 ℃) for 3 h. Raman spectra demonstrate that Y3+ and Eu3+ ions were incorporated into the composites successfully through the sol-gel and post-anneal process. Under the excitation of 387 nm (7F0→5G2) violet light (but not 394 nm (7F0→5L6)), the strongest emission spectrum, the red light, was observed at around 616 nm (5D0→7F2) when the samples were re-treated by annealing at high temperature after 3 months laying aside. Without annealing treatment, the optimized doping mole ratio of Eu ions is about 9%, which is much higher than that doped in SiOglass with the concentration of 3.5%, and it then becomes 5% when the samples are treated by high temperature annealing. In addition, the excitation of 532 nm (7F0→5D1) light can also arouse a comparatively strong emission.展开更多

The resulting fluorescence spectra show that this kind of Ge/SiO_2 glasses emit strongphotoluminescence at 392 nm (3.12 eV), medium strong photoluminescence at 600 nm (2.05 eV)and weak photoluminescence at 770 nm (1.60 eV) respectively. Possible photoluminescencemechanisms are also discussed based on the results of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-rayphotoelectron spectra(XPS).展开更多
