Abstract

Terbium oxide nanoparticles, TbO_x nanoparticles, were synthesized by the thermal reaction of Tb(III) complexes as a single-source precursor with acetylacetone (acac) or hexafluoroacetylacetone (hfa). Thermal decomposition processes of Tb(III) complexes for preparation of TbO_x nanoparticles were characterized by the thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The prepared TbO_x nanoparticles were identified using XRD and TEM measurements. [DOI: 10.1380/ejssnt.2015.23]
