Monodisperse rare-earth ion (Eu{sup 3+}, Ce{sup 3+}, Tb{sup 3+}) doped LaPO{sub 4} particles with oval morphology were successfully prepared through a facile solvothermal process without further heat treatment. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), photoluminescence (PL) spectra and the kinetic decays were performed to characterize these samples. The XRD results reveal that all the doped samples are well crystalline at 180 deg. C and assigned to the monoclinic monazite-type structure of the LaPO{sub 4} phase. It has been shown that all the as-synthesized samples show perfectly oval morphology with narrow size distribution. The possible growth mechanism of the LaPO{sub 4}:Ln has been investigated as well. Upon excitation by ultraviolet radiation, the LaPO{sub 4}:Eu{sup 3+} phosphors show the characteristic {sup 5}D{sub 0}-{sup 7}F{sub 1-4} emission lines of Eu{sup 3+}, while the LaPO{sub 4}:Ce{sup 3+}, Tb{sup 3+} phosphors demonstrate the characteristic {sup 5}D{sub 4}-{sup 7}F{sub 3-6} emission lines of Tb{sup 3+}. - Graphical abstract: Monodisperse rare-earth ion (Eu{sup 3+}, Ce{sup 3+}, Tb{sup 3+}) doped LaPO{sub 4} phosphors with monazite-type structure and uniform oval morphology and strong emission intensity have been prepared through a facile solvothermal process.
