Bright Yellow Luminescence from Mn²⁺-Doped Metastable Zinc Silicate Nanophosphor with Facile Preparation and Its Practical Application.

ABSTRACT: Mn²⁺-doped β-Zn₂SiO₄, a metastable phase of zinc silicate, is widely acknowledged for the uncertainties linked to its crystal structure and challenging synthesis process along with its distinctive yellowish luminescence. In this study, a vivid yellow luminescence originating from Mn²⁺-doped metastable zinc silicate (BZSM) nanophosphor is suggested, achieved through a straightforward single-step annealing process. The reliable production of this phosphor necessitates substantial doping, surplus SiO₂, a brief annealing duration, and prompt cooling. The verification of the phase is demonstrated based on its optical and crystallographic characteristics. Moreover, the effective utilization of excimer lamps in practical scenarios is effectiv
