Luminescent properties of Eu-doped magnetic Na₃FeF₆.

ABSTRACT: Sodium iron fluoride (Na₃FeF₆) is a colorless ferromagnetic fluoride with a monoclinic crystal structure (space group P21/c), and it is expected to be an ideal platform for exploring magneto-optical interactions. In the present work, Eu³⁺ doped Na₃FeF₆ micro-powders were synthesized by a hydrothermal method, and the structures were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The optical properties were examined using UV-Vis spectra and fluorescence spectra, and the results show that the emission spectra can be finely tuned by the hydrothermal reaction temperature and doping concentration of Eu ions. We found that Na₃FeF₆ doped with 5% Eu³⁺ synthesized at 196
