Tm+3 and Tb+ doped LaVO4: Eu nano-crystal materials were synthesized using chemical co-precipitation method in water medium. The materials were annealed at 600° C for 3 hours and then grained into powder form. The materials were characterized by recording XRD and TEM images. The materials showed monoclinic and tetragonal structures and their estimated crystallite sizes were in the range 30–40 nm. And, photoluminescence studies of as prepared materials were carried out at room temperature.
