Synthesis and Application of Lanthanide-Doped Materials (Ceramic Transactions, Vol. 67)

Proceedings of the April-May 1995 symposium explore these materials, the use of which provides enhanced optical performance in such fields as information display, telecommunications, integrated optics, and radiation detection. Topics include fundamental materials issues, emissive materials and active waveguides, phosphors and scintillators, and optical and magneto-optical applications.
