Phase formation and photophysical properties of bismuth doped sodium tantalum oxide (perovskite, defect pyrochlore) nanoparticles prepared by a hydrothermal method were studied in detail. It was revealed that the synthesis conditions like NaOH concentration and bismuth precursor (NaBiO3·2H2O) marked...
