Abstract
Results of investigations of the spectroscopic properties of manganese-activated single crystals of Sr3Ga2Ge4O14 by the methods of optical and EPR spectroscopy are reported. It is shown that magnagese activator ions form substitutional centers Mn3+ and Mn2+ in 1a-octahedral positions of the Sr3Ga2Ge4O14 lattice. Changes in the opticla properties of Sr3Ga2Ge4O14: Mn after vacuum thermal annealing are attributed to charge transfer of some of the manganese ions (Mn3+→Mn2+). The relationship between the spectroscopical properties of Mn2+ ions and the crystallochemical structure of the system are discussed.
