Their formation process was investigated by thermogravimetry and differential scanning calo- rimetry （TG-DSC）, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, and scanning electron microcopy （SEM）. It is found that the products synthesized at 832℃ are monoclinic Mg2B205 whiskers with a diameter of 200-400 nm and a length of 50-80 μm. Transmission electron microscopy （TEM） and selected area electron diffraction （SAED） analyses show that the whiskers obtained at 832℃ are single crystalline and grow along with the [010] direction. The growth mechanism of Mg2B2O5 whiskers was also presented.展开更多

TL emission bands in 480, 575 and 660 nm at 200 and 360 oC were observed in the MgB4O7：Dy due to the transitions of the trivalent rare earth ions Dy3＋. The glow peaks of broad wavelength band around^580 nm at 180 and^290 oC were observed in MgB4O7：Mn due to the emission of Mn2＋ions. The main glow peak of MgB4O7 co-doped with Dy and Mn appeared in 580 nm at^360 oC. When MgB4O7 was co-doped with Dy （0.5 mol.%） and different concentrations of Mn （0.01 mol.%-1.0 mol.%）, the peak in 580 nm at 360 °C was intensified and broadened as the concentration of Mn increased, while the peaks in 480, 680 and 750 nm below 300 °C remained the characteristic emission of Dy3＋and were reduced in intensity. The emission spectra of the MgB4O7：Dy,Mn phosphor showed that the competitive de-excitation processes between Dy3＋and Mn2＋existed and the energy transfer occurred from Dy3＋to Mn2＋. These results meant that rare earth and Mn ions in MgB4O7：Dy,Mn might cause the formation of defects complex that dominated the traps and recombination.展开更多
