Effect of the Fluorine Substitution for –OH Group on the Luminescence Property of Eu<sup>3+</sup> Doped Hydroxyapatite
In this study, different fluoridated hydroxyapatite doped with Eu<sup>3+</sup> ion nanoparticles were prepared by the hydrothermal method. The relationship between luminescence enhancement of Eu<sup>3+</sup> ions and a fluorine substitution ratio for hydroxyl group in hydroxy...
