X- ray diffraction (XRD) results have revealed that CaF2 was the only precipitated crystalline phase in glass ceramic samples. According to the XRD results, a glass ceramic was selected as the best sample in order to compare its optical properties with basic glass. Photoluminescence (PL) and UV-Vis spectra have been employed to study optical properties of glass and glass ceramic samples. A broad band emission in the visible region was observed, which was stronger in the glassy sample. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation and EDX (Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy) results proved the entrance of Y3+ ions into only some of the crystals embedded in the glassy matrix, which was the rational reason of photoluminescence intensity decrease in glass-ceramic.}, keywords = {oxyfluoride glass-ceramic,CaF2 nanocrystals,yttrium emission,luminescence}, url = {https://www.acerp.ir/article_70000.html}, eprint = {https://www.acerp.ir/article_70000_dbb187562ff352a3d2b65c1d398dd047.pdf} }
