The optimized conditions for preparing yb^3＋：Gd3Ga5O12 nanopowders were discussed. The heat behavior, structure and morphology of powders were analyzed with thermal analysis （TG-DTA）, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, infrared spectra OR） and transmission electron microscope （TEM）. TG-DTA analysis revealed that the weight loss of the precursor occured below 800 ℃ and its crystallization temperature was 830.6℃. XRD and IR analysis showed that the precursor converted directly into pure GGG at a relatively lower temperature （900 ℃） without any other intermediate phase. The lattice constant was 1.2377 calculated by extrapolation method. TEM results indicated that the spherical powders showed good dispersity and had a relatively narrow size distribution with average particle size of approximately 40-50 ran, which was favorable for good sinterability of Yb：GGG laser ceramic.展开更多

XRD, SEM, and fluorescence spectrum were used to study the properties of Nd^3＋ ：Gd3Ga5O12 nanopowder. XRD patterns of samples show that it has a cubic structure. Meanwhile, pure Nd：GGG crystals were obtained at 1000 ℃ for 12 h. SEM photographs show that dispersed, uniform, ball-like Nd：GGG nanopowder is obtained. Both XRD and SEM results show that the crystallization degree and the grain size increase with the increase in calcining temperature. Analysis of fluorescence spectrum shows that fluorescence emission occurs at 1062.7 nm, which is the result of Nd^3＋ （^4F3/2→^4I11/2） transition. Homogenous Nd ： GGG nanopewder with a small grain size synthesized using the sol-gel method is favorable for sintering the transparent ceramic, which proves that the nanopewder obtained is suitable as a precursor for preparing GGG transparent ceramics.展开更多

The evolution of phase composition and micro-structure of the powders were characterized by TG- DTA, XRD, IR, and TEM. The results indicate that all precursor powders completely transform to Yb：GGG phase by calcining at 900 ℃ for 8 h, the resultant powders are well dispersed and have smaller particle size approximately 80 nm owing to the electrostatic effect.展开更多

The X-ray diffraction （XRD）, field emission scanning electron microscope （FESEM） and upconversion （UC） emission spectra were used to characterize the samples. The results of XRD indicate that Gd3Ga5O12：Er3＋, Tm3＋, Yb3＋ nanocrystals with cubic phase can be obtained. Under the excitation of a 980 nm laser, the different rare earth ions doped Gd3Ga5O12 nanoerystals show upconversion luminescence involving the green emission attributed to the ^2H11/2→^4I15/2, 4^S3/2→^4I15/2 transitions of Er3＋ ions, respectively, the red emissions assigned to the ^4F9/2→^4I15/2 transitions of Er3＋ ions and the ^1G4→^3F4 as well as 3F2,3→^3H6 transitions of Tm3＋ ions, respectively, the blue emission attributed to ^1G4→^3H6 transitions of Tm3＋ ions, and the near-infrared assigned to the ^3H4→^3H6 transitions of Tm3＋ ions. The CIE coordinates for the samples are calculated. The dependence of their upconversion luminescence properties on Yb3＋ ion concentration is investieated.展开更多
