This method is applicable to extreme pressure conditions such as deep-sea environments, planetary interiors, and the interiors of super-heavy structures, enabling visualized, non-contact pressure monitoring. Common trivalent lanthanide ions (Ln...) 3+ The electrons in the f orbitals of 4f electrons are shielded by outer electrons (such as 5s and 5p). This shielding effect makes the 4f electrons minimally affected by the crystal field, resulting in high energy level structure stability and poor sensitivity to pressure changes. In contrast, divalent transition metal ions like Mn... 2+ With unique 3D 5 With its electronic structure lacking the shielding of outer orbitals, the 3d electrons are directly exposed to the crystal field, and its single broadband green light emission is extremely sensitive to external environmental pressure. Therefore, divalent manganese-based fluorescent materials are ideal materials for pressure monitoring.

Doped Zn₂GeO₄ exhibits broad application prospects in numerous fields due to its tunable fluorescence properties and long afterglow characteristics. 2+ Ion-doped Zn₂GeO₄ exhibits highly efficient green fluorescence under ultraviolet light or low-voltage electron beam excitation, with excellent chromaticity and suitable luminescence intensity. Traditionally, the synthesis methods for Zn₂GeO₄-based fluorescent materials mainly include hydrothermal, solvothermal, and high-temperature solid-state methods. However, these methods often require the use of hazardous chemicals and organic solvents in practice, resulting in high energy consumption and lengthy reaction times, making it difficult to meet the requirements of low cost, convenient operation, and green synthesis.

Detailed Implementation
[0012] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer and more accurate, the invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments described herein are only a part of the many embodiments of this invention and do not cover all of them. Based on the embodiments provided by this invention, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope defined by this invention.
[0013] Figure 1 An electric arc furnace reactor apparatus was demonstrated. The apparatus consists of a glass enclosure 1, an internal cooling wall 2, a tungsten cathode 3, and a graphite anode 5. The reactants 4 are pre-pressed into sheets and placed inside the graphite anode 5. The graphite anode 5 is connected to a copper base 6. Before the reaction, the reactor apparatus is evacuated. The reaction chamber is purged with nitrogen through the inlet 7 and vent 8, using nitrogen as a protective gas to prevent oxygen from participating in the reaction.
[0014] Circulating water needs to be introduced into the condenser wall 2 and the copper base 6 through the inlet 9 and outlet 10 to absorb the heat generated during the reaction. During the experiment, the vertical position of the copper base 6 is adjusted to control the distance between the tungsten cathode 3 and the graphite anode 5, thereby inducing a high-temperature plasma discharge. The resulting high temperature causes the reactants 4 to undergo a chemical reaction. After the reaction is complete and the apparatus cools to room temperature, the reaction products can be collected inside the graphite anode 5.
[0015] Example 1 In this embodiment, divalent manganese-doped Zn₂GeO₄ fluorescent material was prepared. The preparation process is as follows: ZnO, GeO2, and manganese powder were weighed separately in a molar ratio of 2:1:0.002. They were thoroughly ground for half an hour to ensure uniform mixing, and then pre-pressed into raw material sheets 4 with a diameter of 20 mm and a thickness of 2 mm using a tablet press. The resulting raw material sheets 4 were then placed in a graphite crucible 5 inside a DC electric arc furnace. A tungsten rod cathode 3 was then fixed above the raw material sheets 4, ensuring that the tungsten rod cathode 3, raw material sheets 4, graphite crucible 5, and copper base 6 were aligned. Before the formal experiment, the furnace cavity was evacuated and repeatedly flushed with nitrogen to remove air. Finally, the cavity was filled with nitrogen as a protective gas, maintaining a pressure of 10 kPa within the cavity. The circulating water system was turned on to ensure the water cooling systems of the metal cover 2 and copper base 6 were functioning properly.
[0016] In the experiment, the copper base 6 was slowly raised to create a high-temperature electric arc discharge between the tungsten rod cathode 3 and the graphite crucible 5, initiating the reaction. During the reaction, the voltage was maintained at 10–14 V, the current at 40–50 A, and the reaction time at 5–10 s. After the reaction, the graphite crucible in the arc furnace was allowed to cool to room temperature, and the product in the crucible was collected; this product was divalent manganese-doped Zn₂GeO₄ material.
[0017] from Figure 2 The X-ray diffraction pattern shows that all diffraction peaks correspond to the rhombohedral phase of Zn₂GeO₄, and the normalized diffraction data card number is 11-0687. The absence of impurity peaks in the pattern indicates that the obtained Zn₂GeO₄ sample has high purity.
[0018] from Figure 3 The emission spectrum shows a broad fluorescence emission peak at approximately 533 nm, originating from Mn. 2+ of 4 T1( 4 G) to 6 A1( 6 S) energy level transition. This indicates that manganese ions have been successfully doped into the Zn2GeO4 lattice.

After the reaction, the graphite crucible in the arc furnace was allowed to cool to room temperature, and the product in the crucible was collected; this product was divalent manganese-doped Zn₂GeO₄ material.
[0021] from Figure 4The X-ray diffraction pattern shows that all diffraction peaks correspond to the rhombohedral phase of Zn₂GeO₄, and the normalized diffraction data card number is 11-0687. The absence of impurity peaks in the pattern indicates that the obtained Zn₂GeO₄ sample has high purity.

[0026] from Figure 7 The emission spectrum shows a broad fluorescence emission peak at approximately 533 nm, originating from Mn. 2+ of 4 T1( 4G) to 6 A1( 6 S) energy level transition. This indicates that manganese ions have been successfully doped into the Zn2GeO4 lattice.
[0027] The above results demonstrate that manganese ions can be successfully doped into the Zn2GeO4 lattice using the preparation method of the present invention.

The normalized intensity on the long-wave side increases with increasing pressure, while the normalized intensity on the short-wave side decreases with increasing pressure. Therefore, the ratio of the intensity on the long-wave side to that on the short-wave side shows a similar trend with increasing pressure.

This has an impact on Mn. 2+ The intensity on the shorter wavelength side of the fluorescence emission center has an impact.
