Abstract

BaWO4:Pr3+ (hereafter BWO:Pr) microcrystals were prepared via a hydrothermal route, and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), photoluminescence excitation and emission spectra. The as-prepared products with different morphologies of egg-shape rod, olive-like, and quasi-sphere were obtained by the addition of the surfactants and chelating agents. The emission spectra of BWO:Pr microcrystals showed the strong red emission (642 nm) assigned to the Pr3+ ions of 3P0→3F2 transition with blue excitation (484.6 nm, 3H4→3P0).
