This report covers the study of the development of Zinc Oxide nanocrystals (ZnOnc) doped with Europium (III) Nitrate embedded in SiO2 matrix. The thin films have been developed using sol-gel methods based on previous studies. The objectives are to verify the formation of ZnO-nc and thereafter, optim...
