Notes:
Nanosized Y2O3:Eu3+ crystalline powders with average particle sizes around 100 nm, measured byfield-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), have been synthesized by a polymerizedprecursor method using carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). The nanocrystalline phosphors exhibitintense photoluminescence (PL) and cathodoluminescence (CL) around 612 nm, being attributed tothe 5D0-7F2 transition of Eu3+. Electroluminescence (EL) properties of the nanophosphors in theform of thick films were investigated, and emission of red light with maximum intensity at 612 nm(corresponding to x = 0.57 and y = 0.32 in the CIE chromaticity diagram) was observed under highac field at 1 kHz. The obtained results suggest a possibility that Y2O3:Eu3+ nanopowders can beused as a red-emitting phosphor for EL devices
