Abstract
Europium doped Al2O3 photoluminescent coatings have been prepared by an ultrasonic spray pyrolysis process, using a solution of 0.05M of AlCl3 · 6H2O as starting material and EuCl3 as doping. These films were deposited on Pyrex glass substrates at atmospheric pressure using purified air as a carrier gas. All films were amorphous in structure. The photoluminescence spectra were measured at room temperature as a function of substrate temperature and doping concentration. For an excitation wavelength of 395 nm, all the photoluminescent spectra show bands located at 587, 600, 612 and 648 nm, characteristics of the trivalent europium ion. We observed a concentration quenching of the photoluminescence at values of activator concentration above 10 at% in the starting solution.
