Abstract

Pr 3 + -doped PbO–GeO2 (PGO) glasses containing silver nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared and their spectroscopic characteristics were studied. The PGO samples and the nucleation of silver NP were obtained melting the starting oxide powders, quenching and annealing. Transmission electron microscopy w...
