Synthesis of nanocrystalline cubic ZrO2:Mn2+ phosphors: Structural and luminescent properties
Nanocrystalline cubic zirconia doped with manganese, solid solutions of Zr1-xMnxO2-x/2 (x=0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4), were prepared by the sol-gel method. The Rietveld refinement of the X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) profile of the samples confirms [...]
