“…Rare earth cations can create new defects in the forbidden region of the band gap, modifying the electronic properties that reflect in the charge transfers process and, consequently, in the optical properties (Al Boukhari et al, 2020;Chu et al, 2020). In this way, Eu 3+ cations have a special role for obtaining efficient red phosphors, luminescent devices and lasers, for example, from the doping of several distinct semiconductor host matrices (P. Kumar et al, 2021;Mazzo et al, 2010;Ortega et al, 2019;Pinatti et al, 2015). The applications of Eu 3+ cations are mainly related to its nondegenerate 7 F0 ground state and nonoverlapping 2S+1 LJ multiplets (Targonska et al, 2019).…”
