Confinement effects in sesquioxydes (original) (raw)

Abstract

When the size of a particle is decreased to nano-scales, confinement effects induce strong changes. The luminescence of Eu 3+ -doped Gd 2 O 3 nanoparticles has been studied as a function of both the temperature and the size of the nanoparticles.
