Large-scale Synthesis of Luminescent Y2O3:Eu Nanobelts

Abstract

Abstract A two-step method was developed for the large-scale synthesis of luminescent Y2O3:Eu nanobelts. The structure and composition of the as-prepared Y2O3:Eu were characterized by XRD, TEM, and EDX. The luminescent performance of the nanobelts was also characterized and the result was different from that of the other Y2O3:Eu materials observed before.
