Erbium - doped hydroxyapatite (Er - HAP) particles were prepared by the co - precipitation method. The crystal structure, surface chemical composition, and fluorescent properties of Er-HAP particles were characterized by the methods of X- ray diffraction combined with Materials Studio, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy, X - ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy. The results showed that Er³⁺ can competitively substitute for a Ca2+ site in the crystal lattice. Under the excitation of a 340 nm light source, Er-HAP particles emitted significant fluorescence at around 419 nm (purple), 458 nm (blue), 501 nm (green), and 535 nm (green), respectively. The four corresponding luminescence bands are attributed to ⁴F_3/2 → ⁴I_15/2, ⁴F_5/2 → ⁴I_15/2, ⁴F_7/2 →4I_15/2, and 4S_3/2 → 4I_15/2 transition states, respectively. Further, we evaluated the biomineralization ability by analyzing the formation of an interfacial layer after Er-HAP particles were immersed in simulated body fluid. When the dopant content (molar fraction) of Er³⁺ was 1%, it was observed that Er-HAP particles could form the mineralized layer with plate-like structures, and Er³⁺ incorporation affected the biomineralization ability, whereas the biomineralization rate and osteogenic performance significantly decreased with the increasing of the dopant content of Er³⁺. Therefore, the stronger biomineralization ability of Er-HAP particles might be exhibited while the Er dopant content was about 1%.
