Abstract

Mn²⁺ single doped as well as Mn²⁺/Eu²⁺ and Mn²⁺/Ce³⁺ co-doped Al₂O₃ coatings were synthesized by plasma electrolytic oxidation process of aluminum and their structural, morphological, and above all, photoluminescence (PL) properties were investigated in deep. Al₂O₃:Mn²⁺ coatings exhibit a weak green PL emission centered at about 525 nm attributed to ⁴T₁ → ⁶A₁ forbidden transition of Mn²⁺. Under middle UV excitation, Eu²⁺ or Ce³⁺ single doped Al₂O₃ coatings show strong and broad PL emission mostly in range from 300 to 550 nm. Due to the overlap between the PL emission of Eu²⁺ or Ce³⁺ and the PL excitation of Mn²⁺ in Al₂O₃, efficient Eu²⁺ → Mn²⁺ and Ce³⁺ → Mn²⁺ energy transfer upon middle UV excitation was observed in Al₂O₃:Mn²⁺/Eu²⁺ and Al₂O₃:Mn²⁺/Ce³⁺, respectively. PL emission intensities of Mn²⁺ in Al₂O₃:Mn²⁺/Eu²⁺ and Al₂O₃:Mn²⁺/Ce³⁺ is two to three orders of magnitude larger than in Al₂O₃:Mn²⁺.
