Abstract: The nanowires of Y2O3:Eu3+ phosphor were synthesized by using AAO template method. By the observation of the SEM images,the characteristics of morphologies between Y2O3:Eu3+ nanowires and Al2O3 nanowires produced by etching the empty AAO template was compared. The results of the SEM image analysis indicate that each nanowire is composed of a lot of agglutinating nanoparticles. At the same time,the Y2O3:Eu3+ nanowires were confirmed by EDX and PL spectra. The results of the XRD and SAED show that Y2O3:Eu3+ nanowires are mainly composed of polycrystalline materials with a cubic phase.

Key words: AAO template, Nanowires, Y2O3:Eu3+, SEM
