This group consists of the molybdates, XMoO4 (X: metal ion), doped with rare earth elements (RE). The characteristics that describe these materials are: high luminous efficiency, long decay time and emission presentation in the visible. In this work ZnMoO4 and ZnMoO4: 1% Tm3+, 1% Tb3+, x Eu3+ (x = 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 mol%) particles were synthesized from the sonochemical method. The influence of dopant content and heat treatment on photoluminescent behavior was investigated. The X-ray diffraction results confirmed the formation of α- ZnMoO4 phase with triclinic crystalline structure for the particles. The values of the gap energy are in the range of 3.58 and 4.22 eV. The images of the FESEM show a change in particle morphology in accordance with increased doping. The morphology of the particles was interpreted based on a comparative analysis between the theoretically and experimentally modeled images of field emission scanning electron microscopy. First-principle calculations at a density functional theory level were performed to obtain the values of surface energies and relative stability of the (120), (001), (011), (201), and (100) surfaces by employing the Wulff construction. The results of photoluminescence clearly show the specific emissions of Tb3+ and Eu3+. The values of the chromaticity coordinates were influenced by the increase in the treatment temperature, showing emission in the yellowish orange, green and white regions.Acesso AbertoZnMoO4: Tm+3 - Tb+3 - Eu+3SonoquímicaFotoluminescênciaPropriedades Fotoluminescentes do ZnMoO4 codopado com íons de terras raras obtidos a partir do método sonoquímicodoctoralThesisCNPQ::ENGENHARIAS::ENGENHARIA DE MATERIAIS E METALURGICA
