Facile Chemical Conversion Synthesis and Luminescence Properties of Uniform YF3 Nanowires

doi:10.1007/s40242-013-2311-8

Abstract

Abstract:

Well-dispersed YF₃ nanowires were synthesized by a designed hydrothermal conversion method with Y(OH)₃ nanowires as precursor. Various equipments were used to characterize the samples. The results show that Y(OH)₃ nanowires precursor was prepared through a simple hydrothermal process, which then served as the precursor for the fabrication of YF₃ nanowires by a hydrothermal process. The whole process was carried out under aqueous conditions without any organic solvent, surfactant or catalyst. The conversion process from Y(OH)₃ precursor to YF₃ nanowires was investigated by time-dependent experiments. The possible formation mechanism of YF₃ nanowires was presented in detail. Under UV excitation, 5%(mass fraction) Eu³⁺ or 5%(mass fraction) Tb³⁺ doped YF₃ samples exhibit strong red or green emission, corresponding to the characteristic lines of Eu³⁺and Tb³⁺, respectively. Moreover, the luminescence colors of the Eu³⁺ and Tb³⁺ codoped YF₃ samples can be tuned from red, yellow and green-yellow to green by simply adjusting the relative doping concentrations of the activator ions under a single wavelength excitation, which might find potential applications in the fields of, such as, light display systems and opto- electronic devices.
