Abstract

Rare earth-doped metal oxide thin films exhibit remarkable potential for application in anti-counterfeiting, owing to their exceptional fluorescent properties. However, the existing fabrication techniques for these rare earth-doped luminescent thin films are predominantly complex and necessitate high-temperature conditions. In light of this issue, we present a low-temperature method for in situ fabrication of luminescent Ca1-xMoO4:Eux3+ and Sr1-xMoO4:Tbx3+ nanocrystal thin films by a solution deposition process. The developed method has the advantages of simple operation, rapid and low-temperature synthesis. The optimal chemical compositions of molybdate-based luminescent films are Ca0.90MoO4:Eu0.103+ and Sr0.90MoO4:Tb0.103+. Moreover, we evaluate the practical feasibility of luminescent nanoparticle films in the field of anti-counterfeiting by combining the unique fluorescent properties of rare earth ions and designing customized fluorescent patterns.
