The pH-dependent reactions in the sonochemical synthesis of luminescent fluorides: The quest for the formation of KY3F10 crystal phases

In this study Eu3+-doped yttrium fluorides were designed by ultrasound-assisted processes at different pH values (4.0–9.0). This novel strategy has enabled to obtain materials with intriguing morphologies and modulated crystal structures: α-KY3F10, δ–KY3F10·xH2O, and Y(OH)3–xFx. To date, the literat...
