“…Doping LMO with various ions allows the adjustment of the bandgap energy
in both bulk and NP forms. [
6–11 ]
is reduced by doping with ions like Ga, Gd, Fe, Co, Ba, and Ag, [
6–9 ] while it increases with K or Ce substitution. [
10,11 ] Such a contrary behavior in LMO could be caused by varying strains induced by the different ionic radii between the dopant and host ions.…”
