Synthesis of Gd2O3:Eu3+nanocrystallites emmbeded in SiO2 using polyvinylpyrrolidone (pvp) by sol-gel process

Europium doped gadolinium oxide were synthesized by sol-gel method. SiO 2 matrix was prepared by sol-gel method using TEOS, am- monium hydroxide and water as precursors. Both sols were mixed in different molar ratio in order to obtain Gd 2 O 3 :Eu 3+ /SiO 2 stable sol. We report the structure and mo...

Resumo:Europium doped gadolinium oxide were synthesized by sol-gel method. SiO 2 matrix was prepared by sol-gel method using TEOS, am- monium hydroxide and water as precursors. Both sols were mixed in different molar ratio in order to obtain Gd 2 O 3 :Eu 3+ /SiO 2 stable sol. We report the structure and morphology of Gd 2 O 3 :Eu 3+ (2.5% mol)/SiO 2 with PVP (average molecular weight 1300 000) analyzed using DRX and SEM. The XRD pattern of Gd 2 O 3 :Eu 3+ /SiO 2 powders heat treated at 700 ± C for 10 min revealed crystalline cubic phase. SEM analyses showed significant changes in the morphology which depends on the concentration ratio G 2 O 3 :SiO 2 . Luminescent properties of glass ceramics (Gd:Si=8:1) showed intense emission bands in comparison with bare Gd 2 O 3 :Eu 3+ powders. This result is promising to the elaboration of thick films with optical properties.
