Abstract
The luminescence properties of nanocrystalline ZnSe:Mn2+ prepared via an in organic chemical synthesis are described. Photoluminescence spectra show di stinct ZnSe and Mn2+ related emissions, both of which are excited via the Z nSe host lattice. The Mn2+ emission wavelength and the associated luminesce nce decay time depend on the concentration of Mn2+ incorporated in the ZnSe lattice. Temperature-dependent photoluminescence spectra and photoluminesc ence lifetime measurements are also presented and the results are compared with those of Mn2+ in bulk ZnSe.
