Nanoparticles of Eu3+ doped Mg2SiO4 are prepared using low temperature solution
combustion technique with metal nitrate as precursor and urea as fuel. The synthesized …

The metal ion Bi3+ has been shown to be an efficient broadband sensitizer for Yb3+ ion in
the Y2O3 host lattice. Upon ultraviolet‐light excitation in the allowed 1S0→ 3P1 transition of …

Abstract Tm 3+-doped sesquioxides Y 2 O 3, Lu 2 O 3 and Sc 2 O 3 are well known for their
emissions around 2 μm (3 F 4→ 3 H 6 transition). We study here their absorption and …

Photoluminescence (PL), radioluminescence (RL), and thermoluminescence (TL)
investigation of Y 2 O 3: Bi nanophosphors prepared by solution combustion synthesis using …

Lu2 (1–x) Eu2 x O3 nanoscintillators (x= 0.005, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07, and 0.10) with red
emission were synthesized by a coprecipitation method. It is found that their photo-and …

Nanoparticles of trivalent samarium ion doped into yttrium oxide with attractive
photoluminescent properties were prepared using combustion and Pechini methods treated …

Oxides with the bixbyite structure (I a 3¯) have two crystallographically unique cation sites,
namely (in Wyckoff notation) 24 d and 8 b. Since the symmetries of these two sites are …

Ce3+–Tb3+ codoped LaLuO3 was prepared by doping Tb3+ site-selectively at a La or Lu
site and doping Ce3+ simultaneously at a La site. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed the …

Nanoparticles of Mg2SiO4: Eu3+ have been prepared by the solution combustion technique
and the grain size estimated by PXRD is found to be in the range 40–50nm …

The application of Mössbauer spectroscopy to luminescent materials is described. Many
solids doped with europium are luminescent, ie, when irradiated with light they emit light of a …
