Abstract: The synthesis of cerium-doped lutetium oxyorthosilicate (LSO) polycrystalline powders was investigated by a hydrothermal proc-ess. The precursor was obtained by the hydrothermal reaction of Lu(NO_3)_3 with Na_2SiO_3 at 200 ℃ for 10 h by using urea as precipitator, fol-lowed by a calcination uader proper temperatures. The results of XRD indicated that the precursor was crystallized into A-type LSO phase at 1000 ℃, and transfetrred to B-type LSO phase when temperature was raised above 1050 ℃. After being heated at 1250 ℃ for 2 h, single phase of B-type LSO powder was synthesized with homogeneous distribution of particle size ranging from 200 to 300 nm. The photolumi-nescence spectrum of as-synthesized LSO: Ce powders showed a typical broad emission peak centered at 404 nm, corresponding to the 5d1-4f transition of Ce~(3+).
