title = "Green and red luminescence in co-precipitation synthesized Pr:LuAG nanophosphor",
abstract = "Pr:LuAG nanophosphor is an effective candidate in magnetic resonance imaging coupled positron emission tomography (MRI-PET) for medical imaging and scintillator applications. LuAG:Pr (0.05, 0.15mol%) nanoscale ceramic powders were synthesized by co-precipitation method using urea as precipitant. Effect of antisite defect on structure and luminescence behavior was investigated. Pr:LuAG nanoceramic powders are found crystallized in cubic structure by high temperature calcination at 1400 °C and it shows antisite defect. HR-SEM analysis revealed spherically shaped Pr:LuAG nanoceramic particulate powders with ∼100nm size. By the excitation at 450nm, Pr:LuAG nanophosphor exhibit green to red luminescence in the wavelength range of 520 to 680nm, which is originated from multiplet transition of Pr3+ ions.",
