Theoretical model describing the mechanism of droplet formation and structure of GdSiO5:Eu3+ spheres prepared by the process of ultrasonic spray pyrolysis, using colloidal solution consisting of the 7.5 nm SiO2 nano-particles and gadolinium and europium nitrate as a precursor, is developed. The proposed model quantitatively defines each line in the size distribution spectrum. Agreement between theoretically obtained basic structural parameters (size distribution and geometry) and experimentally determined values was found. Luminescence and phosphorescence properties in such structured powders and thin films are investigated. It is shown that very intense emission spectra can be obtained for mixture of 1M silica and stoichiometric quantity of gadolinium for obtaining GdSiO5 doped with 1 at.% Eu. Very clear, magnetic –dipole transition 5D0 - 7F1 at 590 nm, electrical hypersensitive transition 5D0 - 7F2 at 620 nm, red shifted in our case to 613 nm, as a transitions 5D0 - 7F3 and 5D0 - 7F4 at 653 nm and 707 nm, respectively, are appeared.
