Abstract

- Y2O3:Nd3+ with nanophase was prepared by solution combustion technique.
- Powder X-ray diffraction pattern revealed cubic crystalline structure and the crystallites sizes were found to be in the range 18-24 nm.
- The morphology of the samples was studied using scanning electron microscopy.
- The energy gap was found to be 5 eV.
- TL glow curves were analyzed; the trap depth and the frequency factors for the two-luminescence centers were calculated.
