The present review article covers the synthesis of inorganic fluorides using two types of
molten media–molten salt fluxes and ionic liquids (IL). Molten salt syntheses (MSS) are …

Novel scintillating and visualizing materials are an essential part of the development of high-
power X-ray sources like synchrotrons and free-electron lasers. One of the latest …

Phase formation in the SrF2–LaF3 system was studied at temperatures ranging from 300° C
to 450° C using nitrate flux. The solubility of LaF3 in SrF2 decreases with decreasing …

New effective luminescence thermometers based on novel host Ba 4 Y 3 F 17 doped with Pr
3+ and Pr 3+/Yb 3+ in 80–320 K temperature range were studied. The absolute temperature …

Mesoporous nanocrystalline CaF 2 powder was produced by pulsed electron beam
evaporation (PEBE) in vacuum. The specific surface area (SSA) of CaF 2 nanopowder (NP) …

The single-phase Y 1-xy Ce x Yb y F 3 solid solution powders were prepared by melt
crystallization technique. The 5d-4f interconfigurational luminescence of Ce 3+ ions and 2 F …

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

Singlephase powders of Ba4Y3F17: Yb: Pr solid solutions with an average agglomerate size
of 400 nm were synthesized by coprecipitation from aqueous solutions. It was shown that the …

Single-phase solid solutions based on calcium fluoride doped with ytterbium and cerium
trivalent ions were synthesized by co-precipitation from aqueous solutions. According to …

Luminescent composite materials based on a nanocellulose matrix have attracted much
attention due to environmental problems [1, 2] and their promising for photonics [3–7] …
