Abstract

Nd₂O₃ nanometer powders were prepared by precipitation method. XRD analysis showed that Nd₂O₃ nanometer powders were cubic in structure at 600 degrees Celsius; and hexagonal at 850-1000 degrees Celsius, space group was D₃²-P 321. TEM analysis indicated that Nd₂O₃ particles were spherical in shape and increased in size with the increase of calcination temperature. The synthesized Nd₂O₃ nanometer powders were studied by surface photovoltaic spectroscopy (SPS) and field-modulated surface photovoltaic spectroscopy (FMSPS). The observed spectral features can be explained in terms of charge transfer and interband transition.
