Streszczenie

Formation of Lu2O3 through combustion of Lu(NO3)3 and CO(NH2)2 (urea) at various temperatures was investigated. From XRD patterns analysis, the optimal reaction temperature was found to be ∼600–700°C. For that range products with crystallites of ∼7–13 nm were obtained, as found from TEM pictures. With the same technique Tb-doped Lu2O3 was successfully fabricated and its basic spectroscopic properties were characterized. Emission of the phosphors was found to be typical for Tb3+, with main components at 490 and 550 nm, resulting from radiative relaxation of 5D4 level. Undoped material produced broad-band luminescence peaking in blue. Raw Tb-doped samples were brownish, which was attributed to incorporation of some of the activator as Tb4+. Such assignment was derived from reflection, excitation and EPR spectra. The colour could be completely removed through post-fabrication vacuum heat-treatment at 1100°C.
