AIP Conference Proceedings [AIP Publishing DAE SOLID STATE PHYSICS SYMPOSIUM 2018 - Hisar, Haryana, India (18–22 December 2018)] DAE SOLID STATE PHYSICS SYMPOSIUM 2018 - Mixed fuel approach for the fabrication of TiO2:Dy3+(1-11?mol%) nanophosphors: Applications towards wLED and latent finger print detection

摘要： The pure and Dy3+(1-11 mol%) ions doped TiO2 nanophosphors (NPs) were prepared by solution combustion method using grouping of fuels; glycine and ammonium acetate. PXRD studies establishes that the pure and doped samples show rutile and anatase phases respectively. The Raman spectra illustrates that the absorption peaks noticed at ～ 142, 446 and 609 cm-1 were due to the active vibrational optical phonon modes pertaining to B1g, Eg and A1g respectively of the pure tetragonal rutile phase, whereas the peaks at ～ 395, 513 and 639 cm-1 were attributed due the active modes B1g, A1g and Eg respectively of anatase phase of TiO2. The active mode observed at ～ 142 cm-1 was a characteristic mode whereas the mode at ～ 229 cm-1 was attained due to second order effect [SOE] of pure rutile phase of TiO2. The Raman studies validate the PXRD studies. The CIE and CCT outcomes show that NPs can be used for wLED and household applications. The optimized product TiO2:Dy3+(9 mol% ) was utilized for the visualization of latent finger prints (LFPs). The results reveal that, all the levels (I to III) of ridge feature were clearly visualized under normal light indicating that the powder was a reliable and promising labeling agent for LFPs.
