“…organic, inorganic, hybrids, nanostructures, and thin lms, have been explored widely for this purpose, and some of them are attaining commercial viability too. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] However, the material stability, especially in terms of luminescence, is a key limitation with the organics and thin lms; moreover the ecological viability, as some materials are very toxic (like uorides) and are not biodegradable, and the cost effectiveness still impose a strong quest for the search of exotic, low-cost and efficient alternative materials for solar blind UV sensing applications.…”
