Abstract

Colorless and transparent single crystals of Ca₃Sn _2.2Ti_0.8Al₂O₁₂, which emit bluewhite light under ultraviolet light, were prepared by heating a mixture of oxides and calcium carbonate with a calcium and aluminum-rich composition at 1500 °C. Single crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that the crystal structure is the garnet-type with a cubic cell parameter (a=12.5309(3) Å) and the space group, Ia 3̄d (R1=0.0277, wR2=0.0663, and S=1.367 for all data). The structural formula is presented as Ca₃[Sn_0.96Ti _0.04]_octa[Al_0.67Ti_0.24Sn _0.09]_tetraO₁₂. Polycrystalline solid solutions of Ca₃Sn_3-xTi_xAl₂O₁₂ were prepared by solid state reaction in air at 1370 °C with nominal titanium contents from x=0.6 to 1.4. The refined unit cell parameter decreased with increasing x. A broad bluewhite emission with a peak wavelength of 465 nm was observed for the solid solutions at room temperature.
