Besides gas sensitivity,NASICON (Na super ion conductor) material has luminescence characterization.In this paper,the photoluminescence properties of NASICON and doped-NASICON material are investigated.The NASICON material was synthesized by conventional sol-gel process,and doped with Er_2O_3,Tm_2O_3,Dy_2O_3,CsCl by 1%,3%,5% (mass ratio),respectively.The ultraviolet light (325 nm,He-Cd laser) excited luminescent emissions of the resulted powders are recorded vs.wavelength in the 330 nm to 650 nm range.The main peak of the pure NASICON is found at the wavelength of 474 nm (blue light),the transition energy is 2.616 eV.The luminescent intensity is weakened obviously after doping with Er_2O_3 and Tm_2O_3,but is increased after doping with Dy_2O_3 and 3% CsCl.

Tube-type CO_2 gas sensors based on NASICON (Na Super Ion Conductor) material were fabricated.The material was synthesized by conventional sol-gel method,and the resulted powders were characterized by XRD.The tube-type CO_2 sensor was prepared with the sensing electrode Li_2CO_3-BaCO_3 binary carbonates in molar ratio 1:1.5.The concentration of CO_2 range from 300μg/g to 3000μg/g,the sensitivity of the sensor was 62.3 mV/decade.The response and recovery time (90%)corresponding to the switching change between 300μg/g and 1000μg/g CO_2 were 20 s and 2 min,respectively.If the sensing electrode was modified with binary oxides,the steady time of the sensor could be greatly reduced from 30 min to 5 min and the stability and humid-resistance of the sensor were improved.
