Nano/micro-sized coordination polymer La(1,3,5-BTC)(H{sub 2}O){sub 6} with controllable morphologies have been successfully prepared on a large scale via a simple solution phase method at room temperature. By rationally adjusting the synthetic parameters such as concentration, molar ratio of reactants, surfactant, and solvent, the La(1,3,5-BTC)(H{sub 2}O){sub 6} with 3D flowerlike, wheatearlike, spherical, sheaflike, taillike, bundlelike hierarchical architectures, and 1D nanorods can be selectively prepared. More interestingly, the photoluminescence color of codoped Eu{sup 3+} and Tb{sup 3+} lanthanum 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate phosphors can be easily tuned from red, orange, yellow, green-yellow to green by changing co-doping concentration of activator ions, making the material has potential applications in building minioptoelectronic devices, biomedicine, and color display fields. - Graphical abstract: La(1,3,5-BTC)(H{sub 2}O){sub 6} with 3D flowerlike, wheatearlike, spherical, sheaflike, taillike, bundlelike architectures, and 1D nanorods were selectively prepared; color-tunable photoluminescence from red to green was also realized by co-doping Eu{sup 3+} and Tb{sup 3+}.
