Scintillators are of significance for X-ray excited luminescence (XEL) imaging from scientific
research to medical diagnostics application. Rare earth fluoride nanocrystals possess …

Transparent 1% Gd‐doped YAG and YAG ceramics were synthesized via solid‐state
reaction spark plasma sintering using commercially available powder and TESO as a …

Samples of SiO2 (600 nm)/Si have been implanted with Sn ions (200 keV, 5× 1016 cm− 2
and 1× 1017 cm− 2) at room temperature and afterwards annealed at 800 and 900° C for 60 …

Gadolinium-doped silica glass was prepared, using the sol-gel route, for ionizing radiation
dosimetry applications. Such a glassy rod was drawn to a cane at a temperature of 2000° C …

CaLa 4 Si 3 O 13 phosphors were successfully prepared by the sol-gel method by
incorporating different amounts of Gd 3+ ions as dopant. The crystalline phase and …

High-fluence ion implantation has been applied to create silica-based light-emitting
nanocomposite for silicon photonics. Samples of SiO 2/Si have been implanted with Sn ions …

Silica-based monolithic transparent glass-ceramics containing (Gd, Pr) PO4 orthophosphate
nanocrystals, prepared by a cosolvent-free sol–gel method, efficiently emit narrow-band …

A series of ultraviolet B (UVB, 280–315 nm) radiation emitting Gd doped Sr 3 P 4 O 13 was
synthesized using the co-precipitation method. Formation of products was confirmed by X …

Abstract A Gd 3+-doped-silica optical fiber free of other codopants in the core was fabricated
with the help of surface plasma chemical vapor deposition (SPCVD) for the first time. The …

The aim of this study is to investigate the incorporation of Al2O3 in SiO2 glass with emphasis
on reducing the phonon energy in the SiO2 matrix. Pure SiO2 glass has very high phonon …
