Herein, we report near-infrared-to-visible up-conversion (UC) in SrF2: Yb3+, Er3+ sub-
micron crystals prepared via a facile route in an aqueous solution. Subsequent calcination at …

This paper examines methods for the fabrication of optical fluoride nanoceramics and the
compaction behavior of precursor powders. We discuss the basic drawbacks to the ceramics …

Co-precipitation of barium and yttrium fluorides from aqueous solutions at room temperature
produced non-equilibrium Ba1− xYxF2+ x nanofluoride phase with face-centered cubic …

The major challenge in optical ceramic technology is the quality of the starting precursor
powder for pressing, which is a key element in the optical ceramic industry. One express and …

Because of the recent technology progress in the synthesis of fluoride ceramics by so-called
hot-pressing method, several cooperating research groups have produced and meticulously …

The synthesis of binary fluoride phases, specifically nanofluorides, by coprecipitation from
aqueous solutions is considered in terms of phase equilibria. Phases have been …

New effective luminescence thermometers based on novel host Ba 4 Y 3 F 17 doped with Pr
3+ and Pr 3+/Yb 3+ in 80–320 K temperature range were studied. The absolute temperature …
