Abstract

The present research describes a simple low-temperature synthesis route of fabricating porous YVO4:Sm nanoplates via a chemical co-precipitation method using commercially available Y2O3, NH4VO3, Sm2O3 and ethylene glycol as the reacting precursors. The as-synthesized YVO4:Sm was thermally treated at 300°C and 600°C for 2 h which is much lower than that of the conventional preparation methods. The obtained samples were characterized by FTIR, XRD, TEM and PL. The photoluminescence measurement revealed that the luminescence intensity was significantly increased with increasing annealing temperature.
