Non-thermal plasma-driven synthesis of Eu3+:Y2O3nanosized phosphors.
The synthesis of nanosized phosphors by using the non-thermal plasma-driven method is presented. The method allows to control the average grain size of nanocrystals. The synthesis of Eu3+-doped Y2O3nanocrystalline phosphors at water solution of nitrates is described. The average sizes of nanocrystals were controlled by sintering temperature. Their structure, morphology, and luminescent properties were investigated.
