Room-temperature synthesis of crystallized luminescent SrMoO₄ film by active electrochemical dissolution of molybdenum

Crystallized luminescent SrMoO₄ film has been prepared on a molybdenum substrate in an alkaline solution containing strontium ions by active electrochemical dissolution of molybdenum at room temperature (25°C). The film showed only a single green emission at 536 nm with an excitation wavelength of 285 nm at liquid nitrogen temperature (-196°C), strongly suggesting that it consisted of well-crystallized defect-free crystals.
