Zinc oxide nanoparticles doped with europium were obtained by high energy ball milling followed by heat treatment and combustion reaction synthesis method starting from its microcrystalline powders. The influence of the preparation method approach and europium doping on the structural and optical properties of ZnO powders was investigated by X-ray diffraction, Raman and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
