The pink Mn²⁺-doped BeAl₂O₄crystals in the size of 45 mm×80 mm without bubble, cloud and cores have been grown by Czochralski (CZ) technique under the technical conditions of choosing BeO:Al2O3:MnO raw chemical compositions in molar ratio of 100:99.85:0.3, taking twice melting process of the raw materials and using ～60 ℃ temperature gradient of solid-liquid interface and 1 mm/h growth rate. The excitation and absorption spectra of the Mn2+:BeAl2O4 from different parts were recorded. It is found that the pink color of the crystal becomes deeper along the Mn2+ growing direction. An emission band at 543 nm is observed in the emission spectra of Mn2+:BeAl2O4 crystal, which attributes to the electron transition of 4T1(4G)→6A1(6S) level. An excitation band at 218 nm is also observed in the excitation spectra, which corresponds to the electron transition from the ground state to the conduction band (CB). It can be deduced from the green emission that the Mn2+ substitutes Be2+ in BeAl2O4 crystal to form the tetrahedron. From the excitation intensity and color of different parts, it can be convinced that the effective distribution coefficient of Mn2+ ion in BeAl2O4 crystal is less than 1.
