  ABSTRACT: The main drawbacks of fluorescent activated lanthanide luminescent materials in practical optoelectronic applications are the high cost of raw material and the limitation of a specific color depending on the lanthanide ion. In this work, the synthesis of red, white and blue light emitting composite powders of Al2O3:Eu3+@SiO2 were successfully synthesized by the hydrolysis and condensation reactions of TEOS as the raw precursor of silica matrix on the Al2O3:Eu3+ surface. With the aim to change the CIE coordinates different weight ratios of Al2O3:Eu3+/SiO2 powders from 13Al/87Si to 5Al/95Si were prepared. Besides, various excitation wavelength from 280 to 340 nm was used in order to change the ratio intensity; Ired/Iblue, between the red emission coming from the 5D0→7F2 transition of Eu3+ ions and the blue band of silica matrix. Chemical evolution of the hydrolysis and condensation reaction of TEOS were conducted by FTIR spectroscopy. The results indicate that from 500°C a complete TEOS to SiO2 transformation is carried out.
