In order to improve luminescence properties of semiconductor ZnO quantum dots (QDs), Sm3+/Eu3+ co-doped ZnO QDs have been controllably synthesized by sol–gel method in this paper. ZnO QDs have a spherical shape with mean diameter at about 5–6 nm, which was characterized by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). ZnO QDs have hexagonal wurtzite structure with parts of Sm3+ and Eu3+ incorporated into the lattice, which was demonstrated by X-ray Diffraction (XRD). Luminescence properties at room temperature (RT) of different amount of Sm3+ and 2 mol% Eu3+ doped ZnO QDs were examined in-depth by optical spectra. In contrast to the Pr3+/Eu3+ co-doped fluorescent performance researched in our previous study, the photoluminescence (PL) spectra indicates the unique luminescence properties of Sm3+/Eu3+ co-doped ZnO QDs. In addition, fluorescence lifetimes were obtained to illustrate the luminous mechanism.

In order to increase the exchange efficiency of solar cells by down-conversion, Tb3+ doped ZnO quantum dots (QDs) were successfully synthesized by sol–gel process. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicate that ZnO QDs have hexagonal wurtzite structure. ZnO QDs have a spherical shape and diameter around 5 nm, which was confirmed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The intensity of visible light emission peaks becomes strengthened and then weakened with the increase of Tb3+ doping concentration. When the concentration is more than 1%, because of the decrease of surface defects and concentration quenching effect, the emissive intensity is weakened. The enhancement of the PL emission peaks at 542 nm, 582 nm, and 619 nm was assigned to energy transfer between Tb3+ ions and ZnO QDs host. Moreover, the absorption spectra also demonstrates energy transfers from Tb3+ ions to ZnO QDs.
