A comparative study on luminescence properties and their nature in relation to different substitutions at the rare-earth site of Pr3+-doped layered perovskite Na2Ln2Ti3O10(Ln = La, Gd) micro-crystals has been reported. At room temperature, the sample for Ln = La exhibits intense greenish-blue (3P0→3H4) and red (1D2→3H4) emissions under bandgap excitation, whereas for Ln = Gd the red emission can be only observed and all3P0-related emissions were completely quenched. It turns out that3P0→1D2nonradiative relaxation in Na2Ln2Ti3O10(Ln = La, Gd) critically depends on the energy location of Pr3+-Ti4+intervalence charge transfer state and thus on the location of Pr3+ground state3H4with respect to the top of the valence band. Temperature-dependent photoluminescence spectra in the 4.5–300 K range reveals a significant increase of Pr3+luminescence, which is ascribed to an efficient thermally-activated energy transfer process from host to Pr3+ions. Lower energy of self-trapped exciton state relative to the bottom of conduction band for Ln = Gd is responsible for thermoluminescence observed at higher temperatures than that for Ln = La sample. In the case of Ruddlesden-Popper type layered perovskite oxide compounds our results show a possibility of controlling the3P0→1D2nonradiative relaxation of Pr3+ions and the energy distance of the relatively shallow traps in relation to the bottom of conduction band, giving a way for specific band-gap engineering in these materials.
