A methanol-water mixed solvent was used as a reaction medium for the preparation of Eu3+-doped YVO4 phosphor materials. These were synthesized by a solvothermal method at 150°-300°C using a 10 vol% solution of water in methanol as the reaction medium followed by calcination at 1000°-1200°C. The phas...
