Abstract

Abstract In the present work, we have synthesized GdVO4 doped Eu3+ using a facile sol-gel method and analysed the effect of concentration variation and annealing temperature on the optical properties. Tetragonal (I41/amd) zircon type crystal structure of the material was confirmed by x-ray diffraction (XRD) study. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra were recorded with an ultraviolet (UV) excitation of wavelength 325 nm. GdVO4 doped Eu3+ (1 mol%) gives prominent red emission. This optimized sample was annealed at different temperature and as annealing temperature raises, the crystallinity of the material increases resulting in the improved emission intensity. The emission spectra of this phosphor exhibit intense peaks at wavelengths 593 nm (orange) and 618 nm (red) which corresponds to 5D0-7F1, 5D0 -7F2 transitions of Eu3+ ions. 5D0 -7F2, the electric dipole transition is dominant indicating that Eu3+ ions situated at a non-centrosymmetric site in the crystal structure. GdVO4: Eu3+(1 mol%) annealed at 800 °C gives eminent red emission which can be further used as the potential candidate for bioimaging, lighting, temperature sensing and display devices.
