Tens of micron-sized unilamellar nanosheets of Y/Eu layered rare-earth hydroxide: efficient exfoliation via fast anion exchange and their self-assembly into oriented oxide film with enhanced photoluminescence
Layered rare-earth hydroxide (LRH) crystals of (Y0.95Eu0.05)2(OH)5NO3centerdotnH2O with a lateral size of ~ 300 μm and a thickness of ~ 9 μm have been synthesized via a hydrothermal reaction of mixed nitrate solutions in the presence of mineralizer NH4NO3 at 200 °C for 24 h. LRH exhibits the abili...
