| Abstract | The photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence properties of new silicate oxyapatite phosphors ZnGd$_{4}$Si$_{3}$O$_{13}$: Tb$^{3+}$, Mn$^{2+}$ were investigated in this study. The Rietveld refinement indicated that the prepared phosphors exhibited a hexagonal structure with space group P6$_{3}$/m (no. 176). Under UV excitation, ZnGd$_{4}$Si$_{3}$O$_{13}$: Mn$^{2+}$ phosphors presented a red emission band due to the T$_{1}$($^{4}$G)–$^{6}$A$_{1}$($^{6}$S) transition of Mn$^{2+}$ ions, while ZnGd$_{4}$Si$_{3}$O$_{13}$: Tb$^{3+}$ showed several emission lines at 490, 544, 585 and 621 nm attributed to the $^{5}$D$_{4}$→$^{7}$F$_{J}$ (J = 6, 5, 4, 3) transitions of Tb$^{3+}$ ions. The co-doping of Tb$^{3+}$ ions into ZnGd$_{4}$Si$_{3}$O$_{13}$: Mn$^{2+}$ resulted in a 100% enhancement of the photoluminescence intensity for Mn$^{2+}$ ions through a dipole–dipole energy transfer mechanism. On the other hand, the energy transfer process from the sensitizers (Tb$^{3+}$) to the activators (Mn$^{2+}$) led to a decrease in Tb$^{3+}$ emission as co-doping Mn$^{2+}$ ions into ZnGd$_{4}$Si$_{3}$O$_{13}$: Tb$^{3+}$. Increasing the concentration of Mn$^{2+}$ ions from x = 0.02 to x = 0.08 for Zn$_{2−x}$Mn$_{x}$Gd$_{3}$TbSi$_{3}$O$_{13}$ efficiently enhanced the energy transfer efficiency from 90 to 98%. Under the electron-beam excitation, the emission spectra of phosphors were similar to those observed under UV excitation. However, a deviation of CIE coordinates was found under the electron-beam excitation due to the relatively unapparent energy transfer between Tb$^{3+}$ and Mn$^{2+}$ ions. The present results suggested a new series of color-tunable phosphors which can be used for both photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence applications. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
