Abstract

The Gd³⁺ doped La₂Zr₂O₇ phosphor has been prepared by solution combustion method and characterized using powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The EPR spectrum of Gd³⁺ doped La₂Zr₂O₇ exhibits resonance signals having effective g values at g ≈ 1.84, 1.93, 2.0, 3.00, 3.85 and 6.12. Upon UV light excitation (274 nm), the phosphor exhibits a strong and sharp UV emission at 312.5 nm, which is ascribed to ⁶P_7/2 → ⁸S_7/2 transition of Gd³⁺ ions. EPR and optical investigations of the sample confirm the presence of Gd³⁺ in the La₂Zr₂O₇ matrix.
