Abstract

Wire-like and flower-like cerium ion (Ce3+)-doped neodymium phosphate nanostructures (NdPO4:Ce3+ NSs) were synthesised via a direct precipitation process at room temperature. The different reaction conditions such as the phosphate anion source, solvent, and surfactant were carried out to discuss the influence for the morphologies and photoluminescence (PL) properties. Experimental results showed that the surfactants of dodecyl benzene sulphonic acid sodium and dodecyl sulphonic acid sodium play an important role in controlling the flower-like NdPO4:Ce3+ NSs. The flower-like NdPO4:Ce3+NSs exhibited higher PL property than that of wire-like NdPO4:Ce3+NSs.
