TABLE 1
(1) Mixing and melting raw materials, namely fully grinding all raw material components in a mortar, uniformly mixing, pouring the obtained mixture into a corundum crucible, and melting for 45min in a high-temperature falling furnace at 1500 ℃;
(2) Pouring the obtained glass melt liquid onto a room-temperature iron plate rapidly, and pressing the glass melt liquid into a block of glass by using another iron plate;
(3) Annealing, namely putting the obtained bulk glass into a muffle furnace at 500 ℃ for annealing for 2 hours, and cooling to obtain base glass;
(4) And (3) heat treatment, namely, respectively placing the obtained base glass in muffle furnaces at 640 ℃, 710 ℃ and 750 ℃ for heat treatment for 2 hours to obtain the corresponding microcrystalline glass product.
XRD of the base glass prepared in example 1 and the glass ceramics obtained by different heat treatments is shown in FIG. 1.
The base glass is of an amorphous structure, ba 0.625Er0.375F2.375 nano-crystals are precipitated in the glass after heat treatment at 640 ℃, ba 0.625Er0.375F2.375 is taken as a crystal nucleus in the glass when the heat treatment temperature is increased to 710 ℃, baAl 2Si2O8 is precipitated, and when the heat treatment temperature is 750 ℃, the grain size of BaAl 2Si2O8 reaches a micron level and is far larger than that of nano-scale Ba 0.625Er0.375F2.375, so that the XRD pattern mainly shows hexagonal phase BaAl 2Si2O8.
FIG. 2 is a microscopic magnification of the surface of the glass ceramics obtained by the different heat treatments of example 1, wherein (a) is glass ceramics prepared by the heat treatment at 640 ℃, (b) is glass ceramics prepared by the heat treatment at 710 ℃, and (C) is glass ceramics prepared by the heat treatment at 750 ℃.
Since the grain size of Ba 0.625Er0.375F2.375 precipitated at the time of heat treatment at 640 ℃ is nano-scale as shown in (a) of fig. 2, no obvious grain is seen in a microphotograph of the glass-ceramic surface, micro-scale BaAl 2Si2O8 crystals are precipitated with Ba 0.625Er0.375F2.375 nanocrystals as crystal nuclei at the time of heat treatment at 710 ℃ as shown in (b) of fig. 2, and the crystallinity of BaAl 2Si2O8 is further improved when the heat treatment temperature reaches 750 ℃ as shown in (C) of fig. 2, so that a clear grain boundary can be seen in a microphotograph of the glass-ceramic surface.
FIG. 3 is a TEM image of glass ceramics obtained by different heat treatments of example 1.
In fig. 3, (a) a TEM image of a glass ceramic prepared by heat treatment at 640 ℃ showed that the crystal lattice fringes corresponding to the crystal plane of Ba 0.625Er0.375F2.375 nanocrystalline (101) were observed, indicating that Ba 0.625Er0.375F2.375 nanocrystalline was successfully precipitated at this temperature, (b) a TEM image of a glass ceramic prepared by heat treatment at 710 ℃ showed that the crystal lattice fringes corresponding to the crystal plane of Ba 0.625Er0.375F2.375 (112) and the crystal plane of BaAl 2Si2O8 (102) were observed, indicating that BaAl 2Si2O8 crystal was successfully precipitated with Ba 0.625Er0.375F2.375 as a crystal nucleus, and (C) a TEM image of a glass ceramic prepared by heat treatment at 740 ℃ showed that only the crystal lattice fringes and crystal boundaries corresponding to the crystal planes of BaAl 2Si2O8 (104), (102) and (100) were observed, indicating that the degree of crystallinity of heat treatment of BaAl 2Si2O8 was higher at this temperature. The TEM test results are consistent with the XRD and glass-ceramic surface photomicrographs.
FIG. 4 is an emission spectrum of the base glass of example 1 and the glass ceramics obtained by different heat treatments under the excitation of 378 nm ultraviolet light.
Under the excitation of ultraviolet light, the green luminous intensity of Er 3+ in the base glass is far higher than the red light intensity, so the base glass is green. And after heat treatment, red light is greatly enhanced, and the ratio of red to green luminous intensity is further increased along with the increase of the heat treatment temperature.
