Summary:SrWO4：Eu^3＋ nanowires were synthesized at 160 ℃ within 10 min via a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. In examining the influences of synthesis temperature and reaction time on the morphology of nanowires, it was found that any temperatures and reaction time except 160 ℃ and 10 min gave rise to poorer morphologies under otherwise equal conditions. The synthesized nanowires were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction（XRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, transmission electron microscopy（TEM）, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy（HRTEM）, energy dispersive X-ray（EDX） and Raman spectrometry, respectively. The results suggest that the samples are homogenous and dispersive single phase nanowires. The photoluminescence properties of the nanowires were determined with a spectrofluorometer. Two obviously sharp peaks at 395 and 464 nm and a broad peak centered at 290 nm were found in their excitation spectrum. Under excitation at 395 and 464 nm, the ^5D0→^7F2 transition is the dominant process which means Eu^3＋ ion is located at a low symmetry site, while the ^5D0→^7F2 transition dominates under the excitation at 290 nm, showing a highly symmetric field around the Eu^3＋ ion, which indicates the presence of the two local Eu^3＋ environments.
