Abstract
Nanocrystalline Ba0.97Ca0.03SO4:Eu powder has been prepared by combustion method. XRD shows orthorhombic structure, the lattice parameter values are a = 8.836 Ǻ, b = 5.440 Ǻ, c = 6.859 Ǻ. The nanocrystalline powder Ba0.97Ca0.03SO4:Eu having a grain size of 47 nm, and also FTIR, PL, and three dimensional structure studies of the material and the results are presented in detail.
