Lanthanide doping via crystal site engineering approach offers a viable strategy for tuning the emission wavelengths in luminescence applications. Nevertheless, a weak emission from low coordination sites and the complexities of heavily doped structures presents significant challenges. Inorganic materials with suitable coordination sites can enhance luminescence efficiency. In this study, Eu3+ doped SrZrO3 inorganic particles with a perovskite structure were synthesized using hydrothermal method. Structural, morphological, and optical properties were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The XRD confirmed the orthorhombic phase of SrZrO3 while the SEM revealed the formation of spherical particles. Under UV excitation at 293 nm, the SrZrO3:Eu3+ particles emitted reddish luminescence, attributed to the electric dipole transition 5D0 to 7F2 dominated at 606 nm. The excessive doping of Eu further enhanced the red emission. The CIE color coordinates (x = 0.638, and y = 0.362) confirmed the reddish hue, with the respective CIE diagram plotted. These findings show notable luminescent properties, indicating the potential for applications in lighting and field emission display.
