Abstract: This review summarizes recent work in nanoscale luminescent materials of rare earth compounds. This review concentrates on the preparation, strucutrue and luminescence properties of nanoscale rare earth compounds. Spectroscopic studies range from basic luminescence spectroscopy, luminescence intensity and decay time to concentration quench. Finally, some suggestions of further research work are preferred.

Key words: nanoscale, luminescent materials, rare earth
