Abstract

WO3:Eu3+ nanoparticles with different pH values were prepared by citric acid method. The structure and morphology of nano-powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The luminescence properties of the nano-powders were tested by a fluorescence spectrometer. The results showed that the average particle size of the prepared WO3:Eu3+ nano powders were the smallest and reached 32 nm at pH = 1. Under different excitation wavelengths, the main emission peak of the sample was at 615 nm, corresponding to the 5D0 →7F2 electron transition of Eu3+. The emission intensity of WO3:Eu3+ nanoparticles prepared at pH = 5 was the highest at 615 nm.
