Abstract

Up converting (UC) nanoparticles have been a milestone for the people of optical world in the past decade because of their extraordinary properties. In this article, a novel cobalt doped nanocrystalline Gadolinium Aluminate (GdAlO3:Co2+) have been successfully synthesized by the solution combustion method. The structure of the samples were characterized using X-ray diffractometer (XRD) shows that transition metal (TM) doped nanoparticles have smaller crystalline size the structural morphology was studied using Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) which shows irregular shaped, highly dispersed and the size was found to be in the range of 15–25 nm. The result demonstrated that the synthesized material could be useful for dye decolourisation as a photocatalyst.
