 note = {Eu-doped transparent mica glass–ceramics were prepared, the influence of Eu-doping on the crystallization of the parent glasses was investigated and the luminescent properties of the parent glasses and the glass–ceramics were estimated. A small additive amount of Eu element was very effective in preparing transparent mica glass–ceramics. However, the excess addition led to the coarsening of phase separation in the glass phase and the separation of unidentified crystal phases and β-eucryptite during heating of the parent glasses, which caused white opaque at lower heating temperatures. When mica crystals were separated, Eu ions entered the interlayers of mica crystals. The observed emission and excitation spectra showed that parts of Eu³⁺ ions which were added as Eu₂O₃ were reduced to Eu²⁺ ions during melting of the starting materials and heating the parent glasses in air and the energy transfer from Eu²⁺ to Eu³⁺ ions occurred., Article, Ceramics International. 36(4):1303-1309 (2010)},
