Rare-Earth Doping in Nanostructured Inorganic Materials

ABSTRACTThe homoleptic compound erbium{tris[bis (trimethylsilyl)]amide} displays high doping ability for incorporation of the rare earth element into epitaxially grown semiconducting host materials for fabrication of temperature-independent, monochromatic solid state optoelectronic devices. Electronic characteristics derived from erbium doped semiconducting films have been obtained. Several more volatile and lower melting representatives of this class of compounds have been synthesized, characterized by various analytical techniques and examined for their suitability to incorporate optically-active erbium centers into a semiconducting environment.

In this study, nanocrystalline (18–28 nm) perovskite-like bismuth ferrite rare earth-doped powders (Bi0.9RE0.1FeO3, where RE = La (BLaFO), Eu (BEuFO), and Er (BErFO)) were obtained by microwave-assisted modification of solution combustion synthesis (SCS). The influence of high load La3+, Eu3+, and Er3+ doping on structural, optical, and electrical properties of BiFeO3 was investigated. It was found that rare earth doping along with fast phase formation and quenching significantly distorts the crystal cells of the obtained materials, which results in the formation of mixed rhombohedral- (R3c-) orthorhombic (Pbnm) crystal structures with decreased lengths of Bi-O and Fe-O bonds along with a decreasing radius size of doping ions. This promotes reduction of the optical band gap energy and suppression of ionic polarization at high frequencies and results in enhanced dielectric permittivity of the materials at 1 MHz.
