Abstract
A combined experimental and theoretical study was conducted to analyze the photoluminescence (PL) properties of ordered and disordered (CW) and (CM) powders. Two mechanisms were found to be responsible for photoluminescence emission in CW and CM powders. The first one, in the disordered powders, was caused by oxygen complex vacancies , and , where or Mo, which leads to additional levels in the band gap. The second mechanism, in ordered powders, was caused by an intrinsic slight distortion of the or tetrahedral in the short range.
