Zirconia oxynitride rare-earth-doped pigments were prepared by ammonolysis of the zirconium rare-earth oxides, previously synthesized using the citrate complexation/calcination route. Different coloration has been obtained, the intensity of which is a function of the nitrogen amount in the case of the oxynitrides; in the case of the oxides, both color and intensity depend on the doping amount of rare earth. The obtained phases, Zr(1−x)CexO2, Zr(1−x)RxO(2−x/2)□x/2, with R = Eu or Er and Zr(1−x)RxO(2−x/2−3/2y)Ny□x/2■y/2 (R = Ce, Eu, and Er), have been characterized by x-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and reflectance spectra data. These results show that the phases with minor rare-earth concentration adopt a baddeleyite-type structure, with a monoclinic symmetry, space group P21/c. By increasing the rare-earth doping, the obtained phases crystallize with the fluorite structure with tetragonal (P42/nmc) or cubic symmetry (Fm¯3m). On the other hand, the study of the magnetic properties of the oxides and oxynitrides indicate a paramagnetic behavior, and in the case of the cerium oxide, the nitridation process produces the reduction from Ce4+ to Ce3+. Diffuse reflectance data and CIE-LAB color coordinates suggest that these ceramics based on nitrogen containing zirconia are expected to be promising candidates as new ecological inorganic pigments.

Rare earth doped titaniumdioxide (TiO2) thin films (rare earth-doped TiO2) have been successfully prepared on a glass substrate by a sol–gel route. After the rare earth-doped TiO2thin films were calcined at 773K for 1h, the effect of rare earth-doping on the properties were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronmicroscopy (SEM), ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy and thermogravimetric techniques (TG/DTG). The XRD results showed that rare earth-doped TiO2thin films contained only a single crystalline phase of anatase TiO2after calcining at 773K for 1h. SEM micrographs showed that rare earth-doped TiO2thin films have smooth surfaces containing granular nanocrystallines and are without cracks. The UV–vis absorption spectra showed that the absorption of the rare earth-doped TiO2thin films has a red-shift. From ambient to 1273K, it is about 12% of mass loss because of the volatilizing of water and organic and the phase transformation.

In this paper, the high temperature was adopted to treat the composited photocatalysts. The effects of different heat treatment temperature, rare-earth and concentration rare-earth on photocatalytic activity were investigated. The results showed that the photocatalytic activity was better when potassium titanate whiskers were calcinated at 600 0C without rare-earth doping. The effect of potassium titanate whiskers doped neodymium ion was the best, the degradation rate could increase to 59.0%. When neodymium nitrate was 0.04g, the degradation rate of composites photocatalysts was the best. The photodegradation rate could reach 74.02%. And the degradation rate of 10 mg/L tetracycline at 20 0C could increase to 86.31%.

Abstract Non-linear optical (NLO) materials allow the production of the coherent laser beam in the difficult frequency ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum. Aiming to explore new classes of the NLO materials with high optical performance in the infrared (IR) region, in this work, we investigated the effect of the rare earth doping (Pr, Eu, Yb) on the crystal structure and optical properties of the Ag3AsS3 crystals. The performed analysis of the XRD patterns indicates that the rare earth elements are located in the Ag sites of the crystal lattice. As a result, the second harmonic generation (SHG) intensity, which determines the effectiveness of the NLO materials, increases with the increase of rare earth dopant content up to 1.0 %. Using the absorption analysis and Raman spectroscopy, we show that the increase in the SHG intensity can be related to the slight decrease of the bandgap, as well as with the increased electron-phonon interaction in rare-earth-doped Ag3AsS3 crystals. Considering the discovered enhancement of the SHG intensity, accompanied by the low melting temperature, this work offers rare-earth-doped Ag3AsS3 crystals as potential candidates for the non-linear optical applications for the infrared frequency range.
