Customized physical and structural features of phosphate-based glass-ceramics: role of ag nanoparticles and ho3+ impurities

The effects of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) embedment on the physical and structural characteristics of the holmium ions (Ho3+) activated phosphate-based glass-ceramics were assessed. Two series of such glass-ceramics were prepared using the melt-quenching and characterized. In the first series, th...
