Description
Summary:The various synthesis methods of LaPO4 nanoparticles were an active area in many fluorescent applications. Several methods have been introduced for the synthesis of rare earth metals doped LaPO4 nanoparticles. In general, phosphor particles with a relatively large crystallite size with a spherical and agglomerated morphology are favoured for emitting the highest PL intensity. This study is an attempt to present an overview of pure and doped LaPO4 nanoparticles. •Precipitation method for good results as compared with other methods.•LaPO4 nanoparticles ensure their stability and suitability for LED applications.•Lanthanum orthophosphate has important properties such as low water solubility, high thermal stability, high index refraction.
