Temperature Effect on The Structure and Optical Properties of Eu/TiO2 Nanomaterials
The temperature (including annealing temperature and measurement temperature) effects on the structure and optical properties of Eu/TiO
2
nanomaterials were studied. It was found that the particle size is increase with the annealing temperatures. The emission intensity of the Eu
3+
ions increases with annealing temperature
but decreases when the annealing temperature is over 973 K. Meanwhile
a broad emission band ascribed to defect states associated with Ti
3+
ions and oxygen vacancies is intensified with the increasing of annealing temperature. The fluorescence spectra at low measurement temperatures show that the emission intensity of the broad emission band is enhanced while the emission from Eu
3+
ions is weaken with the decrease of annealing temperature. The mechanism was discussed in this paper.
