Preparation and characterization of Si02-Zr02 doped with Er3+ and Er3+/Yb3+ glass ceramic thin film / Nurul Iznie Razaki
In this thesis, the Er3+ and Er3+/Yb3+ doping dependents of 70Si02-30Zr02 glass ceramics thin film are studied. All the samples were prepared via sol-gel dip coating technique and annealed at 900 to 980°C. Full film densification was achieved for the deposited film, which indicates hydroxyl group wa...
