Abstract: Spherical nanometer Gd2O3∶Eu luminescent materials were prepared by homogeneous precipitation method, and the properties were studied also. TG, FTIR and XRD analysis showed that the precursor was carbonate, the cubic Gd2O3was obtained after calcination. TEM photographs indicated that the samples were spherical and well dispersed with nanometer and submicrometer size of 200~300 nm which is the nanoparticles’ aggregate. The mechanics of agglomerating growth is also discussed. ED photograph showed that the particle was crystalline. The PL analysis exhibited that CTB band of nanometer Gd2O3∶Eu was of 17 nm red shift to bulk materials, and the emission peak was broadened due to the surface and interface effect of nanocrystals. |
