Abstract: Latent fingerprints (LFPs) were the most significant identification card for individualization. Most commonly available fingerprints (FPs) in crime spot investigation were latent, patent and plastic. Generally, LFPs were invisible and thus the effective visualization technique necessitates for analysis of such FPs. In the past years, many traditional visualization techniques have been employed, but suffered with low resolution, sensitivity, contrast and high background noise. To overcome such limitations, we synthesized Sm3+ doped CaSiO3nanophosphors (NPs)via an ultrasound irradiation route using mimosa pudica (m. p.) leaves extract as a bio-surfactant. The morphological behavior of the prepared sample was extensively studied by varying the concentration of the m. p. extract, ultrasound irradiation duration, pH level of the precursor solution and sonication power. The photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra exhibit characteristic peaks at ~ 561, 601 and 647 nm, which were attributed to 5G5/2→6HJ (J = 5/2, 7/2 and 9/2) transitions of Sm3+ ions. The Judd – Ofelt (J-O) intensity parameters and other radiative properties were estimated using PL data. The Commission International de I’Eclairage (CIE) color coordinates were positioned in orangered region, shows average correlated color temperature (CCT) value of ~ 3576 K. The optimized sample can be used as a labeling agent for the visualization of LFPs on various porous and non-porous surfaces under normal light irradiation. The visualized FPs reveal well defined ridge characteristics, namely whorl, loop, arch, bifurcation, eye, island, bridge, sweat pores, etc. with high sensitivity, selectivity, low contrast and background hindrance. Aforementioned results evidence that the prepared novel CaSiO3:Sm3+NPs were promising luminescent material for solid state lighting and forensic applications
