Abstract

Luminescent structures of yttrium aluminum garnet doped with rare-earth elements Tb and Nd (YAG:Tb3+ and YAG:Nd3+) were formed by the sol–gel route on films of porous anodic alumina. The morphology, phase composition, and luminescence of the fabricated structures were investigated. Photoluminescence spectra of the YAG:Tb3+ and YAG:Nd3+ structures revealed emission bands due to electronic transitions of the relevant rare-earth elements. Fine structure was observed in the luminescence bands of all fabricated samples and was associated with the manifestation of a Stark effect.
