Photoluminescence spectroscopy was used to study transparent MgAl2O4 spinel ceramics with grain sizes ranging from 100 to 300 nm. The results showed that the grain size affects the emission line shapes and intensities, particularly in the grain boundary regions. The emission of impurity Cr3+ ions became broad-band in these regions, which was attributed to the different local crystalline fields.
Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy of transparent MgAl2O4 spinel ceramics with grain size between 100 and 300 nm was studied at 7 K temperature in the near-IR-VUV range of spectrum with synchrotron radiation excitation. The PL spectra were composed of optical transitions from spatially different regions of the ceramics, which analysis evidenced grain size effect on the emission line-shapes and intensities. In particular, emission of impurity Cr3+ ions, being structured in the crystalline bulk, became broad-band in the grain boundary regions, which was associated with respectively strong and weak local crystalline fields. It was observed that (i) excitons and F centres transfer energy to Cr3+ and (ii) Cr(2Eg)/Cr(4T2g) and F-centres/Cr3+ PL intensity ratios underwent a linear dependence on the grain size.
