The obtained neodymium hydroxide samples were investigated using the enhanced electronic Raman spectroscopy, Xray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, as well as field emission electron microscopy. Observable changes in electronic Raman bands were found among the electronic Raman spectra of Nd (OH)3 particles which formed under different physical-chemical conditions. Compared to the difference of the X-ray diffraction paterns, it suggests that the change of size and morphology of Nd (OH)3 particles occurs with subtle variation on dae coordination environment around the neodymium ions,展开更多
