Gd2MoO6:Eu3+ nanofibers and nanobelts have been prepared by a combination method of the sol-gel process and electrospinning. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy, photoluminescence, and low voltage cathodoluminescence as well as kinetic decays were used to characterize the resulting samples. The results of XRD and FTIR indicate that the Gd2MoO6:Eu3+ samples have crystallized at 600 degrees C with the monoclinic (alpha) structure. The SEM and TEM results indicate that the as-formed precursor fibers and belts are uniform and that the as-prepared nanofibers and nanobelts consist of nanoparticles. Gd2MoO6:Eu3+ phosphors show their strong characteristic emission under UV excitation (353 nm) and low voltage electron-beam excitation (3 kV), making the materials have potential applications in fluorescent lamps and field-emission displays.
