Abstract:In this work, we present the synthesis of a green‐emitting series of BaGd2ZnO5:xHo3+ (0.5–3 mol%) phosphors using a high‐temperature solid‐state reaction method. Phase purity and crystal structure information were evaluated through X‐ray powder diffraction patterns. Optical properties were examined through diffuse reflectance spectra, revealing that the prepared phosphor exhibited a band gap of 4.65 eV. The effect of Ho3+ doping on the morphology and ion distribution on the surface was assessed using scanning … Show more
