Abstract:In the present paper, we have reported zinc aluminate (ZnAl2O4) doped with 0.03 mol. % of dysprosium (Dy 3+ ) nanophosphor with general formula Zn(1 -x)Al2O4:x(x 0.03 mol. %)Dy for its luminescence properties and applications. Using urea as fuel, ZnAl2O4 doped with dysprosium (Dy 3+ ) nanophosphor was prepared by the combustion method. The synthesized nanophosphors were characterized with XRD, TEM, SEM with EDS and FTIR spectroscopy. From XRD studies, the average crystallite size was found to be 18.10 nm wit… Show more
