Abstract

Nanoparticles of sodium lanthanum (III) fluoride-doped and co-doped with Eu3+/Tb3+ were prepared by the hydrothermal method using citric acid as structure-directing agent. Structural aspects and optical properties of synthesized nanoparticles were studied by powder X-ray diffraction (XRPD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), energy-dispersive X-ray spectra (EDS), particle size by dynamic light scattering (DLS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum and photoluminescence (PL) techniques. Nanoparticles consist of well-crystallized hexagonal phase and the average crystallite size for undoped and doped-NaLaF4 nanoparticles are in the range of 20–22 nm. TEM images show that nanoparticles have cylindrical shape and crystalline nature of nanoparticles was confirmed by SAED patterns. Down- conversion (DC) luminescent properties of doped NaLaF4 were also investigated and impact of co-doping has been explored.
