Mg 3 (BN 2 )N was prepared by solid state metathesis reactions and several europium (Eu 2+ ) doped samples were prepared to discover novel red-emitting photoluminescent (PL) materials. It turned out that the undoped and doped samples showed very broad deep-red photoluminescence ranging from about 500 nm into the near infrared. Due to
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.
