Abstract

In this report, Manganese doped magnesium germanate ($Mg_4GeO_2:Mn$) phosphor has been synthesized by the solid state method. Also, this phosphor was prepared by simple process under an air atmosphere for oxidation of Mn. The prepared phosphor shows a main luminescent peak at 661nm. Therefore, this phosphor is possible to be applicable to white LED lamp by GaN or InGaN chips.
