Abstract
Y2O3O:Eu nanorods were successfully synthesized by a facile and effective hydrothermal method in the presence of P123 (EO106PO70EO106) as the surfactant followed by a subsequent heat treatment process. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images indicate that the as-prepared samples consist of nanorods with diameters ranging from 80 nm to 100 nm and grow along the (100) direction. The growth mechanism of the as-obtained Y2O3:Eu nanorods was proposed on the basis of pH-dependent experiments. It is found that the pH is a crucial factor in determining the phase, morphology and luminescence properties of Y2O3:Eu nanorods. The luminescent spectra of Y2O3:Eu nanorods show the strong characteristic dominant emission of the Eu3+ ions at 613 nm.
