Hydrophilic ZnO thin films doped with ytterbium and europium oxide

Abstract Hydrophilic photocatalytically active ZnO and ZnO thin films doped with Yb2O3 and Eu2O3 (rare earth metal oxide, REM) with optical transmittance exceeding 76% in the visible light range (λ = 550 nm) were prepared by a combination of sol–gel technique, spin-coating and high temperature therm...
