| ABSTRACT | Crystalline α-Gd2(MoO4)3 is synthesized by sintering at 800 °C using a coprecipitation method to prepare the precursor. The resulting α-Gd2(MoO4)3 displayed a monocrystalline structure with a strong main peak (-221) in the X-ray diffraction signal. To develop a light-emitting material, rare earth ions are added during synthesis. By doping with Tb3+ and Eu3+, the Gd2(MoO4)3 down-conversion phosphor shows potential for use in UV–LED chips, counterfeit money prevention, and fingerprint identification. Additionally, co-doping with [Er3+]/[Yb3+] and [Ho3+]/[Yb3+] ions produce green and red emissions when applied to a 980 nm LED chip, useful for anti-counterfeit ink. The magnetic properties of gadolinium are leveraged to confirm magnetic resonance imaging luminescence. A flexible composite for heat detection and explored various applications for its use is also developed. |
