This work presents the optical and structural properties of samarium oxide doped and gadolinium oxide co-doped yttrium oxide nanophosphors prepared by Combustion method. The photoluminescence emission intensity was maximum for 2wt% Sm3+ doped Y2O3 powders, that results 4G5/2 - 6H7/2 transition within Samarium, emits red light at 608 nm under the excitation of 260 nm. In the case of co-dopant, maximum intensity is obtained for 3wt% Gd3+ under the excitation of 255 nm.The Y:Sm:Gd exhibit luminescence intensity of 4.21 times more than that of Y:Sm nanophosphors. These results indicate that the prepared nanophosphors can be used in optoelectronic devices.
