The definitive version will be published in the Journal of Material Chemistry and Physics, Vol. 120(2-3), pp 619-624Nano-crystalline of tin oxide doped with varying wt% of Dy3+ was prepared using chemical coprecipitation method and characterised by various advanced techniques such as BET-surface area, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and photoluminescence measurements. Analytical results demonstrated that the nanocrystalline tin oxide is in tetragonal crystalline phase and doping with Dy3+ could inhibit the phase transformation, increases surface area and decreases the crystallite size. The experimental result on photoluminescence characteristics originating from Dy3+-doping in nanocrystalline SnO2 reveals the dependence of the luminescent intensity on dopant concentration.enDy3+-doped SnO2PhotoluminescenceNanocrystalline tin oxideMaterials chemistryPhysicsArticleKesavan Pillai, S., Sikhwivhilu, L., & Hillie, T.
