Abstract
This paper reports the first-time synthesis of Sr0.99Zr(PO4)2:0.01Eu3+ nanophosphor via solution combustion method using glycine as fuel at a fuel-to-oxidizer ratio of 1:1. The PXRD pattern confirmed the formation of the desired phase, while the Scherrer calculation revealed an average particle size of approximately 60 nm. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) further corroborated the particle size, estimating it around 75 nm. The material exhibited a characteristic mesoporous structure, a hallmark of the solution combustion synthesis technique. Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy revealed two intense emission peaks at 590 nm and 615 nm, attributed to Eu3+ ions, suggesting potential applications in LED technology. CIE coordinates indicated emission close to the white region defined by the NTSC standard
