abstract = {This work aims to clarify the relationship between the
optical, particularly luminescent, characteristics of the
La$_{1-x-y}$Sm$_x$Ca$_y$VO$_{4-δ}$ powder nanosized
compounds with their phase composition and concentration of
dopants. According to the high-accuracy XRD data, the
samples are a mixture of monoclinic and tetragonal crystal
phases. The diffuse reflection and photoluminescence (PL)
spectra were measured and analyzed including spectral
distributions and intensity ratios of the PL bands, the
positions and half-widths of envelopes of the groups of
lines in the PL spectra of Sm$^{3+}$ ions. Estimated from
the diffuse reflection data the band gap values are 3.85,
and 3.82, 3.75, 3.78 eV for the samples with x = 0.1, y = 0,
and (x, y) = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, respectively. The PL
excitation spectra of the
La$_{1-x-y}$Sm$_x$Ca$_y$VO$_{4-δ}$ nanoparticles consist of
both the wide UV wavelength band (260–360 nm) caused by
transition in the VO$_4$$^{3−}$ molecular groups and in a
set of narrow lines caused by inner $f$-$f$ transitions in
the Sm$^{3+}$ ions (spectral range 350–520 nm). The PL
spectra of the La$_{1-x-y}$Sm$_x$Ca$_y$VO$_{4-δ}$
nanoparticles contain four groups of lines (I – IV)
resulting from the $^4$G$_{5/2}$ → $^6$H$_{5/2}$,
$^6$H$_{7/2}$, $^6$H$_{9/2}$, and $^6$H$_{11/2}$
transitions, respectively, in the inner $f$ shell of the
Sm3+ ions. The concentration behavior of the Sm3+ ions PL
characteristics is related to the evaluation of the phase
composition of La$_{1-x-y}$Sm$_x$Ca$_y$VO$_{4-δ}$ samples.
It was found that the changes of the R$_{lum}$ =
I$_{(III)}$/I$_{(I)}$, where I$_{(III)}$ and I$_{(I)}$ are
the integrated intensities of the corresponding groups of
lines, can be related to the phase composition of the
La$_{1-x-y}$Sm$_x$Ca$_y$VO$_{4-δ}$ compounds. Developed in
this work the combined way of structural and optical data
analysis may be useful in designing other multiphase
phosphor systems containing Sm$^{3+}$ ions.},
