Submicron-sized phosphors based on hexagonal rare earth oxycarbonate for near-infrared excitation and emission
Neodymium-doped rare-earth oxycarbonates, Ln2O2CO3: x mol% Nd3+ (Ln = La, Gd, and Y, 0 ≤ x ≤ 5), were synthesized by a simple flux method using a 0.476Li2CO3–0.270Na2CO3–0.254K2CO3 eutectic mixture. The suitability of these oxycarbonates as stable, nontoxic bioimaging phosphors that exhibit near-inf...
