Since the initial discovery of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and surface-
enhanced fluorescence (SEF), these techniques have shown huge potential for applications …

Existing models of zinc oxide luminescence in the visible spectral region are considered and
comparatively analyzed. Experiments are performed with ceramics obtained from initial ZnO …

The numerous benefits like smaller size, easy handling, quicker readouts and cost
effectiveness render TLDs as prominent radiation dose measuring instruments. Zinc Oxide …

Y 2 O 3 ceramics containing up to 4 at.% Zn 2+ were prepared by infiltrating a zinc acetate
water solution into a pre-sintered matrix of Y 2 O 3. After pressureless sintering for 2 h at …

High-sensitive spectroscopy instruments have been developed to measure
thermoluminescence emission (TLE), diffuse reflectance, and photoluminescence (PL). The …

Two types of ZnO ceramics were fabricated and characterized by XRD, SEM methods. The
radioluminescence spectra were measured within the 300–550 K range. The defect …

The optical, radioluminescence and thermoluminescence properties of Eu-doped BaSi 2 O 5
glass-ceramics were evaluated. The glass samples were synthesized by the conventional …

ZnO together with TiO 2 is a main photocatalyst for various redox reactions to convert light
energy into a chemical one and to purify the environment. Intrinsic surface defects in ZnO …

One of the directions of nanotechnology is the production of nanopowders (NPs).
Nanopowders, according to the currently widely used classification of nanomaterials, belong …

In this paper we have studied the properties of ZnO ceramics sintered from the ZnO-Zn
nanopowders (NPs) produced by a pulsed electron beam evaporation of heterogeneous …
