Europium-doped magnesium tellurite glasses were prepared using melt quenching techniques and attenuated total reflection (ATR) spectroscopy was used to study the glass structure. The glass transition temperature increased with increasing MgO content. Eu2+ and Eu3+ emissions were studied using photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). The broad emission of Eu2+ ions centered at approximately 485 nm was found to decrease in intensity with increasing MgO content, while the Eu3+ emission was enhanced. The Eu3+ emission lay within the red orange range and its decay time was found to increase with increasing MgO content. Different excitation wavelengths were used to adjust Eu2+ to Eu3+ emissions to reach white light emission. The white light emission was obtained for the sample with the lowest MgO content under excitation in the near-UV range.
