Synthesis and Properties of Sub-50-nm Europium Oxide Nanoparticles.
Eu2O3 nanocrystals are synthesized by a colloidal precipitation route in the size range 2-40 nm. The nanocrystals are passivated with a surface layer of trioctyl phosphine oxide (TOPO) in order to eliminate surface recombination effects. When pumped at 254 nm (4f --> 5d transition) the nanocr...
