Photoluminescence and photocatalytic properties of novel Bi2O3:Sm3+ nanophosphor

The current work involves studies of the synthesis, characterization and photoluminescence for Sm3+ (1–11 mol%) doped Bi2O3 nanophosphors (NPs) by a solution combustion method. The average particle size was determined using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and found to be in the range of 13–30 nm. Th...
