The invention belongs to the technical field of
microcrystalline glass materials, and particularly discloses
rare earth doped
silicate system high-
crystallinity transparent
microcrystalline glass and a preparation method thereof. The
microcrystalline glass is prepared from the following raw materials: black talcum
powder, CaO, AlF3, YF3,
rare earth ions,
graphite powder, Si3N4, a
clarifying agent, micron-sized seed crystals and the like through a high-temperature melting process and controllable
nucleation-
crystallization. The preparation method is simple, the used raw materials are rich, the preparation process is simple, and the prepared high-
crystallinity transparent microcrystalline glass can be effectively excited by 420 nm purple light and has the characteristics of high
crystallinity,
high transmittance, high luminous efficiency, excellent
thermal quenching resistance and the like. A main
crystal phase is CaAl2Si2O8 and a small amount of YF3, the crystallinity is larger than or equal to 70 vol.%, the
transmittance of a 1 mm sample is larger than or equal to 80%, the emission
peak value is adjustable between 480 nm and 520 nm, the internal
quantum efficiency is larger than or equal to 80%, the
luminous intensity at the temperature of 150 DEG C is 85% or above of the
luminous intensity at the
room temperature, and the material can be widely applied to the fields of
white light illumination, screen display and the like.
