The present investigation describes the synthesis of luminescent terbium-doped strontium aluminate nanoparticles emitting bright green light, which were synthesized through a solid-state reaction method assisted by microwave radiation. Various samples containing different concentrations of Tb were synthesized, and an analysis of their structural and morphological features was conducted using powder x-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy. The band gaps of the samples were determined utilizing the Kubelka-Munk method.

Chromium doped zinc gallium oxide (ZnGaO:Cr) microrods were synthesized by simple solid state reaction method. The transformation on crystal structure and optical properties with molar concentration of Cr were analyzed. The cubic spinel nature of ZnGaO:Crphosphor and their crystalline nature were confirmed from x- ray diffractogram.

The structural and optical properties of nanomaterials exhibit severe changes when capped with organic polymers. In this work we focus on the effect of chitosan capping on ZnO:Na nanoparticles synthesized by wet chemical method. The main characteristics analyzed are x-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and photoluminescence (PL).

Nano and polycrystalline ZnS thin films play a crucial role in photovoltaic technology and optoelectronic devices. In this work, we report the photoluminescence (PL) characterization of nanocrystalline ZnS thin films synthesized by dip coating method. The PL spectra exhibit broad nature with multiple emission peaks which are due to the different defect levels in the prepared film.
