Abstract
In order to give emission functionality for laponite the laponite-X (x = Eu, Tb) phosphors were prepared by calcination of cryogels which were prepared through Na ion exchange reaction with Eu and Tb ions. Thermal stability and emission properties of new laponite-X (X = Eu, Tb) phosphors were investigated by X-ray diffractormeter and UV/VUV spectrofluorometer. The phosphors were stable around up to $600^{\circ}C$ and new crystalline phases were observed at $700^{\circ}C$. Red and green emissions of phosphors under UV/VUV excitation were also identified at $300^{\circ}C$ and $500^{\circ}C$ as emission peaks of $Eu^{3+}$ and $Tb^{3+}$, respectively.
