The Synthesis,Characterization,and Testing of Rare Earth-doped GdBO3 Luminescent Materials
This study investigates the synthesis,characterization,and testing of rare earth-doped GdBO3 luminescent materials using borate-based GdBO3 as a matrix with simple chemical formula and easy synthesis.Different doping ions,namely Ce3+,Tb3+,and Eu3+,with distinct luminescent properties,are selected to explore the nanoparticle and non-nanoparticle scale synthesis methods for the rare earth-doped GdBO3 luminescent materials.The objective is twofold:firstly,to investigate the differences in luminescent performance between nanoparticle and non-nanoparticle materials,and secondly,to identify the most practical and valuable synthesis approach.For conventional(non-nanoparticle)samples,rare earth oxides are used as reactant materials,and high-temperature solid-state synthesis method is employed.For nanoparticle samples,rare earth nitrates are used as reactant materials,and hydrothermal synthesis method is utilized.Subsequently,X-ray powder diffraction is conducted to characterize the phase purity of the synthesized samples,and their photoluminescent properties are evaluated.
