Europium doped CaMoO4 and bismuth co-doped CaMoO4 : Eu3+ phosphors were prepared via microemulsion-hydrothermal method. The structure, morphology and luminescence properties of samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and fluorescence spectroscopy, respectively. The XRD patterns of as-prepared samples were in agreement with the PDF # 29-0351 of CaMoO4, which indicated that the phosphor possessed tetragonal crystal structure. SEM images showed that the samples were basically flake in shape and their average size was 1.5-2.5 microm. The critical molar concentration of activator (Eu3+) in CaMoO4 : Eu3+ was 5%, and the predominant peak of CaMoO4 : Eu3+ located at 616 nm, corresponding to the 5D0 -->7 F2 electronic dipole transition of Eu3+. The photoluminescence color can be tuned from orange-yellow (0.514, 0.537) to white (0.339, 0.333) by adjusting the doping concentrations of Eu3+ ions. To enhance the red emission intensity of Eu3+, Bi3+ was used to co-dope CaMoO4 : Eu3+ as sensitizers. When the concentration of Bi3+ is 3%, luminescence intensity was maximum. The chromaticity coordinates (CIE) varied from orange (0.497, 0.347) to red (0.585, 0.349) with increasing the content of Bi3+.

This work is inspired from the comprehensive work done by our research team aimed at improving the efficiency of white light emitting diodes (LEDs) through improvements in the colour rendering index of the red light (CRI), one of the primary colours of white light. Such work is triggered through the incorporation of anions (BO, PO, SO), either individually or as an integral part of dopant activated inorganic phosphor host materials. Numerous host materials such as ZnO, YO, Ca(PO), CaMoO, ABPO, ABSO (where A represents alkali metals and B alkaline earth metals) have been considered ideal hosts materials for studying luminescence properties of materials (including other phosphors).

Rare earth-doped metal oxide nanocrystals have a high potential in display, lighting, and bio-imaging, owing to their excellent emission efficiency, superior chemical, and thermal stability. However, the photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) of rare earth-doped metal oxide nanocrystals have been reported to be much lower than those of the corresponding bulk phosphors, group II-VI, and halide-based perovskite quantum dots because of their poor crystallinity and high-concentration surface defects. Here, an ultrafast and room-temperature strategy for the kilogram-scale synthesis of sub-5 nm Eu -doped CaMoO nanocrystals is presented, and this reaction can be finished in 1 min under ambient conditions.

Because of thermal quenching, conventional luminescent materials suffer from severe problems when employed at high temperatures. Based on the thermally coupled energy levels (TCLs) of rare-earth ions, we report and explain an abnormal thermal quenching phenomenon in the excited state of the charge transfer band (CTB), which is expected to bring out a solution to the problems of the low sensitivity of temperature-sensing materials and applications at high temperature. Temperature-dependent excitation spectra of Er or Eu-doped CaMoO, CaWO, and LuVO phosphors are recorded.
