“…Recently, luminescent metal ions doped cerium oxide nanophosphors with a narrow size distribution (<10 nm) and high luminescent efficiencies are of great importance because of their applications in high-performance luminescent devices, biological fluorescence labeling, luminescent paints and inks for security codes [1][2][3][4]. Because, these metal oxide nanophosphors possess higher chemical and thermal stability than commonly used mixed metal alloy phosphors such as ZnS:Cu, Al and Y 2 O 2 S:Eu 3+ [5,6].…”
