description | La<sub>1.03</sub>Sr<sub>1.97</sub>Al<sub>0.97</sub><i>M</i><sub>0.03</sub>O<sub>5</sub> (<i>M</i> = Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu) samples were synthesized using a citrate sol–gel method to develop a novel environmentally friendly inorganic green pigment. Among them, the Co-doped sample exhibited a vivid yellow, but not green. Then, (La<sub>0.94</sub>Ca<sub>0.06</sub>)Sr<sub>2</sub>(Al<sub>0.97</sub>Mn<sub>0.03</sub>)O<sub>5</sub> was synthesized and characterized with respect to the crystal structure, optical properties, and color. The sample was obtained in a single-phase form and the lattice volume was smaller than that of the (La<sub>0.94</sub>Ca<sub>0.06</sub>)Sr<sub>2</sub>AlO<sub>5</sub> sample, indicating that Mn ions in the lattice of the sample were pentavalent. The sample exhibited optical absorption at a wavelength below 400 nm and around 650 nm. These absorptions were attributed to the ligand, the metal charge transfer (LMCT), and d-d transitions of Mn<sup>5+</sup>. Because the green light corresponding to 500 to 560 nm was reflected strongly, the synthesized sample exhibited a bright green color. (La<sub>0.94</sub>Ca<sub>0.06</sub>)Sr<sub>2</sub>(Al<sub>0.97</sub>Mn<sub>0.03</sub>)O<sub>5</sub> showed high brightness (<i>L</i>* = 50.1) and greenness (<i>a</i>* = −20.8), and these values were as high as those of the conventional green pigments such as chromium oxide and cobalt green. Therefore, the (La<sub>0.94</sub>Ca<sub>0.06</sub>)Sr<sub>2</sub>(Al<sub>0.97</sub>Mn<sub>0.03</sub>)O<sub>5</sub> pigment is a potential candidate for a novel environmentally friendly inorganic green pigment. |
