In this study, solid solutions of Na2(SixGe1-x)F6:Mn4+ and Na2(GeyTigros)F6:Mn4+ have been successfully synthesized to elucidate the behavior of zero-phonon line (ZPL) in different structures because of the sensitivity of ZPL intensity to the local coordinated environment. The structures of the products are examined by X-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement. The ratio between ZPL and the highest emission intensity υ6 phonon sideband exhibits a strong relationship with luminescent decay rate. First-principles calculations are conducted to model the variation in the structural and electronic properties of the prepared solid solutions as a function of the composition. The calculated results are consistent with the experimentally determined structural parameters. To compensate for the limitations of Rietveld refinement, electron paramagnetic resonance and high-resolution steady-state emission spectra are used to prove the diverse local environment for Mn4+ in the structure. Finally, the spectral luminous efficacy of radiation (LER) is used to reveal the important role of ZPL in practical application.PostprintPeer reviewe
