Erbium doped TiO2 nanocrystals with the structures of anatase, pyrochlore Er2Ti2O7, and rutile, characterized by X-ray diffraction, have been obtained at different annealing temperatures from 300 °C to 900 °C. The nanocrystalline size for anatase TiO2 is reduced with increasing doped erbium concentration. Following ultraviolet 325 nm irradiation, the intensity of the green emission is the most intense for the TiO2:Er3+ nanocrystals with a structure of pyrochlore Er2Ti2O7, which evolves from the structure of anatase annealed at 800 °C. Moreover, following ultraviolet 325 nm and infrared 980 nm irradiation, the visible emission spectra for the nanocrystals annealed at 900 °C change drastically. Correspondingly, the structure of anatase disappears, while that of rutile becomes dominant, which indicates that phase transformation occurs.
