meters are also used to study different radiative properties. The magnitude of the calculated peak emission cross
section for the transition 4F9/2 → 6H13/2 is 1.02 × 10−20 cm2, a value suitable for laser applications. An energy
transfer quenching mechanism indicates that the mode of non-radiative transition is dominated by dipole-dipole
interactions. Color coordinates and color correlated temperature with respect to different Dy3+ concentrations
are studied in detail.

Dy3+ ions in the ground state are excited to 6P7/2 (28571 cm−1) but
relax non-radiatively and are populated at 4F9/2 (21144 cm−1). This
spectra is characterised by the emission bands at 478 nm, 572 nm,
664 nm and 754 nm corresponding to the transitions 4F9/2→6HJ
(J = 15/2, 13/2, 11/2 and 9/2), respectively [28]. Fig. 10 shows the
schematic representation of possible transitions between different en-
ergy levels. However, the Dy3+ is mainly characterised by blue emis-
sion (478 nm) ascribed to magnetic dipole (MD) transition which is
insensitive to local environment and the other is yellow emission
(572 nm) attributed to forced electric dipole (ED) transition and is al-
lowed at sites that lacks inversion symmetry [1]. It is evident from the
emission spectra that yellow emission at 572 nm is fairly stronger than
the blue emission at 478 nm indicating that Dy3+ ions prefers non
centro-symmetric sites in host matrix. The host matrix (Sr2SiO4) has
two sites Sr(I) and Sr(II) with co-ordination numbers assumed to be 10
and 9, respectively. The Sr(I) polyhedron has hexagonal pseudo-sym-
metry along the y-axis; it shares the face and vertex with two SiO4
tetrahedron which are vertically above and below it respectively, and
the three edges with three SiO4 tetrahedron, which is more symme-
trical. On the other hand, Sr(II) polyhedron is much less symmetrical
and shares neither edges nor faces with any SiO4tetrahedron. Thus,
from the results obtained, we can predict that less symmetrical Sr(II)
sites are more preferable than that of Sr(I) sites [29]. Further structure
diagram indicating the presence of Sr(I) and Sr(II) sites in the Sr2SiO4
host are shown in Fig. 4
