SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF CE3+ DOPED SILICA (SIO2) NANOPHOSPHORS CO-DOPED WITH AL3+ OR MG2+ IONS.
In recent studies, amorphous silica (SiO2) has been used as a host matrix for rare-earth ions to prepare luminescent materials that can be used in various light emitting devices. Sol-gel glasses have the potential to hold up to â¥10% dopants without losing their amorphous structure. However, before...
