The crystal structure, particle size, morphologies, and optical properties of the as-synthesized products were investigated by XRD, TEM, SEM, EDS, FT-IR, Raman spectroscopy and PL. The effects of pH of precursor solution, precursor concentration, reaction temperature, and time were investigated. The results reveal that pH of the precursor solution not only plays an important role in determining the phase of the as-synthesized products, but also has a significant influence on the morphologies of the samples. High-quality and uniform octahedrons with an average size of about 700 nm could be easily obtained at the pH value of 12. The possible formation mechanism of octahedral-like La2Sn2O7:Eu3+ microcrystals was briefly proposed. The photoluminescence spectra show that La2Sn2O7:Eu3+ micro-octahedra display stronger emission in the range of 582-592 nm compared with the samples with other shapes.展开更多

X-ray diffraction patterns, transmission electron microscopy, and photoluminescence spectra were employed to charac- terize its structure and morphology as well as luminescent properties. The results indicated that the red-emitting phosphor La2Zr207:Eu3+ had well crystallized and belonged to the cubic structure with space group of Fd3m. The as-obtained product mainly appeared as straight nanorods with an average diameter of 47 nm and length of 50-700 nm. The pos- sible growth mechanism was also discussed. It was found that under blue excitation with a wavelength of 466 nm, the La2Zr2OT:Eu3+ phosphor exhibited a characteristic red emission at 616 nm that was attributed to the hypersensitive 5D0--*TF2 electric dipole transition of Eu3+ ions. Meanwhile, it was more interesting to note that the emission of 5D1--*TFj (J=0, 1, 2) transitions and the splitting patterns of 5D0---+TFJ (J--l, 2, 4) transitions of Eu3+ ions can be observed in the luminescent spectra of La2Zr207:Eu3+. It was demonstrated that Eu3+ preferred to occupy a low symmetry site.展开更多
