Tunable transmission light in nanocrystalline La1−xEuxB6
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Cubic-shaped ternary La 1− x Eu x B 6 nanopowders have been synthesized via a solid-state reaction and their optical properties are investigated for the first time. La 1− x Eu x B 6 nanopowders have a high crystallinity with a grain size of 40 nm and HAADF–STEM images fully confirm that the Eu element has been successfully doped into the lattice of LaB 6 . The optical absorption results indicate that the transmission light wavelength of LaB 6 shifts from 590 nm to 1070 nm with increasing Eu doping content, indicating a “redshift” phenomenon of transmission light. Thus, this novel tunable characteristic of La 1− x Eu x B 6 transmission light will open a new way to extend the optical applications of LaB 6 nanopowder.
