Abstract
Cs2SiF6:Mn4+ and Cs2GeF6:Mn4+ red phosphors are synthesized by chemically etching Si and Ge in aqueous HF/CsMnO4 solutions. Photoluminescence (PL) analysis, PL excitation (PLE) spectroscopy, and Raman scattering techniques are used to investigate the optical properties of the phosphors. The Franck–Condon analysis of the PLE data yields the Mn4+-related optical transitions to occur at ∼2.39 and ∼2.35 eV (4A2→4T2) and at ∼2.82 and ∼2.79 eV (4A2→4T1) for Cs2SiF6:Mn4+ and Cs2GeF6:Mn4+, respectively. Temperature-dependent PL measurements are performed from 20 to 450 K in increments of 10 K, and the obtained results are well interpreted by taking into account the Bose–Einstein occupation factor. A complete set of infrared and Raman active frequencies, ν 1–ν 6, are determined from the PL and Raman scattering spectra of Cs2SiF6:Mn4+ and Cs2GeF6:Mn4+.Keywords
