Abstract
This project consists on the synthesis and characterization of lanthanum fluoride nanoparticles via precipitation method using ammonium fluoride (NH4F) and lanthanum nitrate (La(NO3)3.6H2O) as reactants. The surface of the nanoparticles will be modified during the synthesis to obtain a core-shell conformation. This will reduce the formation of aggregates, facilitating the homogeneous inco…
