For the high luminescent efficiency, nano sized Eu3+ doped Y(P,V)O4 phosphors are the promising red-emitting candidates for solar cell. In this study, Y0.92Eu0.08(P0.508V0.452)O4 of particle size of ~ 100 nm were obtained with high PL intensity by using the cellulose assisted liquid phase precursor process. Their excitation and emission spectra were analyzed. Crystal structure and particle morphologies of obtained phosphors were measured and analyzed with X-ray diffractometer (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and photoluminescence (PL).
