BaZnGdO:Tb nanorods; synthesized via solution combustion route; were found to crystallize in the tetragonal (I4/m, 87) crystal system. The UV excitation at 290 nm of all BaZnGdO:Tb samples yielded the characteristics emission corresponding to D → F transitions in Tb activator (used for Judd-Ofelt analysis). A detailed investigation of photoluminescence decay curves and emission spectra of BaZnGdO:Tb nanorods provided the radiative lifetime (1.

The composition and properties of complexes were analyzed by elemental analysis, IR, NMR, powder X-ray diffaraction, TG-DTG and photoluminescence spectroscopy. These complexes exhibited ligand sensitized green emission at 546 nm associated with D → F transitions of terbium ion in the emission spectra.
