“…Spectroscopic properties of neodymium phosphate crystals and glasses have been reported by many authors. [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] Recently we have reported on optical properties of LiLa 1Àx Nd x P 4 O 12 nanocrystals 14,[19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] and LiLa 1Àx Dy x P 4 O 12 nanocrystals. 23 In this paper we report synthesis, structural and spectroscopic properties of the La 1Àx Nd x P 5 O 14 nanocrystals.…”
La(1-x)Nd(x)P5O14 nanocrystals were synthesized using a coprecipitation method. Their structure and morphology were determined. The luminescence and excitation spectra of La(1-x)Nd(x)P5O14 nanocrystals were measured in the entire range of Nd(3+) concentration. It was found that the relative intensities of absorption transitions increased significantly with concentration due to the cooperative interactions. The effect of concentration on fluorescence transitions was investigated. It was found that the intensity of the (4)F3/2 → (4)I11/2 transition significantly increased with concentration relative to the resonant (4)F3/2 → (4)I9/2 transition almost three times due to strong reabsorption. The concentration quenching of fluorescence was discussed in terms of the Yokota-Tanimoto model.
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.
