Abstract: | A new approach that uses mixed supercritical solvents of water/1-propanol and water/methanol (400 °C, 40 MPa) to prepare morphology-controlled precursor materials in a very short reaction time, such as 10 min, followed by calcinations has been developed to form Eu(3+):Y(2)O(3) microspheres of 2-3 μm in diameter or microcubes of 2-3 μm in side length, respectively. Eu(3+):Y(2)O(3) microspheres and microcubes exhibited strong red emission at 610 nm corresponding to (5)D(0) → (7)F(2) transition. The highest photoluminescence emission was obtained for the microspheres after calcination at 1000 °C for 1 h in air. |
