Abstract: Several rare earth phosphate nanomaterials have been synthesized. It is shown that during the Micro emulsion preparation process, the size and morphology of rare earth phosphate nanomaterials could be tuned by changing the conditions of the micro emulsion system, which have a significant effect on the fluorescence properties.

Abstract: Monodisperse nanowires of rare earth phosphates were synthesized by chemical precipitation method using anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images indicated that rare earth phosphate nanowires are parallelly arranged in AAO template, all of which are in uniform diameter of about 50 nm. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and high magnification transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images showed that the nanowires were polycrystal structure.
