摘要
The structural and optical properties of Eu3+/CdSe nanocrystal in silica galss are presented. The presence of Use nanocrystals was confirmed using elctron diffraction studies. The nanocrystal size was determined from TEM micrographs. The phonon sideband spectrum (PSB) associated with the excitation transition F-7(0)-D-5(2) is used to determine the electron-phonon coupling constant and non-radiative deexcitation rate of the rare earth ions. The Si-O-Si vibrational energy obtained from the PSB spectrum is found to correlate with the FT-IR spectrum. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
