An Eu-doped ZnAl-layered double hydroxide (ZnAl-LDH) was synthesized by the coprecipitation method at room temperature. A set of as-prepared samples were subjected to annealing at various temperatures from 100, 200, 300, 500, 600, 700, to 800 degrees C for 1 h, respectively. The annealed samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (IR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and photoluminescence (PL). New phases occurred with annealing temperatures above 300 degrees C. Meanwhile, the emissions of Eu3+ ions described by D-5(0)-F-7(J) transition (J = 1, 2, 3, 4), especially for the D-5(0)-F-7(J) transition (J = 1, 2), varied with phase transitions of its local host materials from ZnAl-LDH, ZnO, to mixed phases of ZnO and ZnAl2O4. The emissions of Eu3+ ions depending on its host materials were discussed. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
