For the synthesis of the phosphor samples, yttrium oxide (Y₂O₃) (99.99%, Alfa Asear), holmium oxide (Ho₂O₃) (99.99%, Sigma Aldrich), ytterbium oxide (Yb₂O₃) (99.99%, Sigma Aldrich), urea (CH₄N₂O) (99.99%, Alfa Asear) and nitric acid (HNO₃) (90.0%, Finar Chemicals, India) were used as precursors. Also, triply distilled deionized (DI) water was used throughout the synthesis.

For this work, precursors used are yttrium oxide (Y₂O₃), ytterbium oxide (Yb₂O₃), and holmium oxide (Ho₂O₃) (Sigma-Aldrich, 99.99%). Calcium carbonate (CaCO₃), ammonium fluoride (NH₄F), oleic acid (C₁₇H₃₃COOH), 1-octadecane (C₁₈H₃₆), and hydrochloric acid (HCl) were purchased from Alpha Aesar. All the chemicals were used as received without further purification.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
