Abstract

Hereby we report a new microstructured luminescent material - Eu-doped yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) microtube - prepared by a special sol-gel route. Transparent, crack-free and brightly luminescent microtubes were obtained after thermal treatment at temperatures as high as 1100 °C. The implications of time-resolved and site-selective studies of Eu3+ luminescence are discussed. The decay kinetics of Eu3+ luminescence is modeled following the Judd-Ofelt theory and matched to the experimental data.
