The effect of Li+ co-doping on the photoluminescence properties YPO4:Eu is discussed. Interesting behaviours, such as presence intermediate bands, shifting Eu–O charge transfer band (Eu–O CTB) to a lower wavelength, variation in intensities magnetic (5D0 → 7F1) and electric dipole 7F2) transitions Eu3+ shift 5D0 7F0 higher energy with increasing excitation wavelengths are observed. ion does not have an absorption range 340–350 nm, but after at these wavelengths, broad emission (370–570 nm),...
Tb(3+)-doped CaMoO(4) (Tb(3+) = 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 and 20 atom%) core core-shell nanoparticles have been prepared by urea hydrolysis in ethylene glycol (EG) as capping agent well reaction medium at low temperature ~150 °C.

When Eu(3+) ions occupy Ca(2+) sites of CaMoO(4), which has a body centered tetragonal structure with inversion symmetry, only the magnetic dipole transition ((5)D(0)→(7)F(1)) should be allowed according to Judd-Ofelt theory. Even if there are few distortions in environment, its intensity more than that electric ((5)D(0)→(7)F(2)). We report here opposite effect experimentally and ascribe this polarizability MoO(4) tetrahedron, is neighboring EuO(8) (symmetric environment). The contribution...

We have studied the luminescence property of CaMoO4:Eu3+. The emission peaks at 590 (5D0→7F1) and 613 nm (5D0→7F2) for Eu3+ are observed after excitation 266 (i.e. Mo–O charge transfer band). peak intensity latter dominates over former indicating an asymmetric environment in EuO8 polyhedron or parity mixing. Luminescence increases significantly with co-doping Gd3+. This is ascribed to energy from Mo–O/Gd3+ Eu3+. annealing up 900 °C due extent decrease non-radiative rates. Very high values...
We report sub-100 nm optical/magnetic resonance (MR)/X-ray contrast-bearing theranostic nanoparticles (TNPs) for interventional image-guided photothermal therapy (PTT) of solid tumors.

A facile auto-combustion route is used for the synthesis of Gd(3+) (2, 5, 7 and 10 at%) co-doped CaMoO4:Eu nanoparticles. X-ray diffraction study suggests that as-prepared samples have extra impurity phases in addition to main tetragonal phase CaMoO4, such decrease as annealing temperature increases from 600 900 °C.
