Gadolinium oxysulfide powders doped with different Tb3+ concentrations were prepared from sulfur vaporization on rare earths' basic carbonate precursors. Single-phase Gd2O2S samples were obtained, with Tb3+ doping up to 9 ...

Frequency selectivity is a fundamental cochlear property. Recent studies using otoacoustic emissions and psychophysical forward masking suggest that frequency selectivity is sharper in human than in common laboratory ...

Single-phase zinc aluminate (ZnAl(2)O(4)) with the spinel structure was successfully obtained by the Pechini method at different calcining temperatures for 4 hours. The nanoparticles are highly crystalline with no impurities ...

The emission properties of Ag nanoclusters (Ag NCs) dispersed in a transparent fluorophosphate glass host have been studied. The as-prepared glass shows that the Ag NCs emit a broad white emission band almost covering the ...

Herein we report the synthesis of highly-doped silver nanocluster in fluorophosphate glasses through the melting-quenching method in order to achieve sensitization with Tm3+ and Mn2+ ions. Blue and red emission belonging ...
