| Summary: | A series of europium doped magnesium borotellurite glasses embedded with manganese nanoparticles (Mn3O4 NPs) of composition (59-x)TeO2-30B2O3-10MgO-x1Eu2O3-1Mn3O4 with 0.5 ≤ x ≤ 1.5 mol % are prepared using melt quenching technique. The existence of broad hump in X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern verifies the amorphous nature of glasses. The presence of Mn3O4 NPs with average diameter of ~11 nm and (1 0 3) lattice plane having 0.276 nm spacing in the glass matrix is confirmed by high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) image. The glass samples are excited under 390 nm excitation wavelength and the emission spectra are found to consist of four emission peaks centred at 587 nm, 610 nm, 651 nm and 700 nm assigned to the transition from 5D0 → 7FJ (J = 1, 2, 3, 4) states. The schematic energy level diagram is proposed. All results will be discussed with respect to the composition of Eu3+ ion. |
