چکیده
Nanocrystalline yttrium orthovanadate (YVO4): Eu powders with different morphologies were synthesized in basic media by surfactant-assisted hydrothermal process. The structures and optical properties of products were investigated using the X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Results showed that pH value played a key role in the formation of products with different morphologies. The photoluminescence measurement showed that the samples with different morphologies exhibited different properties. The dependence between the fluorescence and the microstructure was discussed. # 2005 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Pechini synthesis of lanthanide (Eu3+/Tb3+or Dy3+) ions activated BaGd2O4 nanostructured phosphors: an approach for tunable emissions.
Trivalent lanthanide (Eu(3+), Tb(3+) and Dy(3+)) ions activated tunable color emitting BaGd2O4 (BG) phosphors were synthesized by a facile Pechini-type sol-gel process. The X-ray diffraction pattern confirmed the orthorhombic phase after annealing at 1300 °C for 5 h. Morphological studies were performed based on the analysis of transmission electron microscopy images, which showed needle type n...
متن کاملProbing charge transfer in a novel class of luminescent perovskite-based heterostructures composed of quantum dots bound to RE-activated CaTiO3 phosphors.
We report on the synthesis and structural characterization of novel semiconducting heterostructures composed of cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots (QDs) attached onto the surfaces of novel high-surface area, porous rare-earth-ion doped alkaline earth titanate micron-scale spherical motifs, i.e. both Eu-doped and Pr-doped CaTiO3, composed of constituent, component nanoparticles. These unique m...
متن کاملHydrothermal synthesis and photoluminescence properties of rare-earth niobate and tantalate nanophosphors.
Rare-earth niobate and tantalate materials are of considerable interest for use as phosphors, photocatalysts and ionic conductors. We successfully synthesized Ln3MO7 (Ln = Y, Ce, Er, Ho, Tm, Yb and Lu, M = Ta, Nb) nanophosphors by a hydrothermal method using the water-soluble Lindqvist ion polyoxometalates [HNb6O19](7-) and [Ta6O19](8-) as Nb and Ta sources. The Pawley refinements of these nano...
متن کاملSynthesis and properties of colloidal lanthanide-doped nanocrystals
Colloidal solutions and redispersible powders of nanocrystalline, lanthanide-doped phosphates and vanadates have been prepared in high-boiling coordinating solvents or by hydrothermal means in aqueous solution. Highly crystalline materials were obtained by both methods despite the low temperature of 2008C applied during the synthesis. The materials have been characterized by using high-resoluti...

The synthesis of Nb doped BaTiO3 has been investigated under Microwave-Hydrothermal (MH) conditions in the temperature of 150°C for only 2 h using C16H36O4Ti, BaH2O2.8H2O and NbCl5 as Ba, Ti and Nb sources, respectively. Typical experiments performed on MH processing have not yet reported for Nb doped BaTi...
