Preparation of Y3Al5O12:Eu3+ waveguide films by sol-gel method

, , , , , , , ,
In this work, Y3Al5O12:Eu3+ (5 mol% Eu3+) optical thick films were obtained by sol-gel process. The films were dip-coated by dip-coating technique. The synthesis was accomplished using metal organic precursors, such as Al(tri-sec-butoxide) Al(OC4H9)3, yttrium [...]

Structure of Ni nanoparticles/TiO2 films prepared by sol-gel dip-coating

, , , , , , , ,
Titania thin films were synthesized by sol-gel dip-coating method with metallic Ni nanoparticles from an organometallic precursor. Titania matrix and Ni nanoparticles were prepared separately. Titania precursor solution was prepared mixing titanium isopropoxide in isopropanol [...]
