摘要
Amorphous films Zr0.8Si0.2O2 were deposited on quartz substrates at room temperature, by using pulsed laser deposition technique. After annealing at high temperature, Zr0.8Si0.2O2 films suffer a phase separation to precipitate tetragonal ZrO2 nanocrystals in ZrSiO4 amorphous matrix. Their crystal structure, microstructure, optical absorbance and photoluminescence have been systematically investigated. Tetragonal ZrO2 nanocrystals show intense UV emission around 392 nm under photonic excitation with a wavelength of 250 nm. The corresponding models of electronic excitation and transition related to UV emission also have been proposed.
