In this paper, we report new results about synthesis and
characterization of YVO4:Eu3+ nanophosphors with size
from 15 to 8 nm by microwave assisted soft template synthesis
at 80 ºC. The effects of synthesis conditions such as
powers of MW irradiation, pH values and concentration of
soft template agents on properties of nanomaterials were also
investigated to obtain the controllable size, expected morphology
and high luminescence.
