Abstract

Colloidal Europium-doped In2O3 nanocrystals were successfully prepared in a noncoordinating solvent using indium (III) and europium (III) acetates as precursors. The concentration of doped europium was varied up to 2.88 at%. Linear electrogyration induced by coherent circularly-polarized light was observed from samples in which europium-doped In2O3 nanocrystals were embedded in photopolymer oligoethracryalte matrices. The result on ˜2.5 at% europium-doped sample shows that the maximal linear electrogyration could reach to ˜12 deg./mm at an electric field of 120V/cm for He-Ne laser.
