The photoluminescence (PL) properties of Y2O3: Eu3+ nanophosphors were systematically investigated with the goal of improving the color quality and quantum efficiency of Y2O3: Eu3+ nanophosphors for potential applications in nanoscale devices. The emission spectra, excitation spectra and fluorescence decay curves were employed to trace the energy transfer process from Eu3+ at C-3i site to Eu3+ at C-2 site. The experimental results show that the energy transfer process becomes more and more efficient with the increase in the Eu3+ concentration. The emission of Eu3+ at C-2 site is favorable because it has high radiative efficiency and better color quality. The successful suppress of the emission Eu3+ at C-3i is especially important for its applications in general illumination or display technology. The quantum efficiency and color quality of Y2O3: Eu3+ can be improved by controlling the energy transfer between the Eu3+ at S-6 site and Eu3+ at C-2 site.
