Dysprosium-doped strontium fluoride (Dy: SrF2) nanopowders with the doping concentration of x mol% (x = 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, 5.0, 7.0, 9.0) were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method, and the composition and morphologies of nanopowders were characterized by XRD and TEM. The results indicated that the grain size and lattice constants of the powders showed a decreasing trend. Dy:SrF2transparent ceramics were fabricated by vacuum hot pressing sintering. The transmittance of the ceramics reaches 86.14% in the visible light band while the Dy3+ion concentration is 3.0 mol%. Under the excitation of 349 nm, the two significant emission peaks located at 479 nm and 576 nm, which were corresponding to blue emission and yellow emission of Dy3+ion, respectively. The emission intensity firstly increased and then decreased with the amount of doping increasing. And the lifetimes decreased continuously with the Dy3+ion doping concentration increasing from 1.0 mol% to 9.0 mol%. According to the CIE chromaticity coordinates, Dy:SrF2transparent ceramics can achieve white light emission, and the SrF2ceramic with 7.0 mol% doping concentration of Dy3+ions was the closest to perfect white light. It demonstrates that Dy:SrF2transparent ceramics is a potential candidate for solid-state laser materials in visible band.
