Abstract:The rare earth (RE = Eu, Sm, Dy, and Tb) ions doped La10Si6O27 nanophosphor was synthesized by a simple solution combustion method. The prepared La10Si6O27:RE3+ nanophosphors (LNPs) were subjected to diverse technical tools for exploring their structural, optical, morphological, and electrochemical features. The structural analysis using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) patterns revealed the hexagonal oxy apatite phase for LNPs with a crystallite size in the range of 25–50 nm, and the equivalent was affirmed by… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
