We show, using simulation techniques, that the high ionic conductivity in BaF2/CaF2 heterolayers is because the interfaces reduce the activation energy barriers to mobility and increase the number of charge carriers.

Hydrophilic Ce, Tb doped BaYF(5) nanocrystals with uniform size were synthesized by a microwave-assisted route. The synthesized nanocrystals can be well dispersed in hydrophilic solutions (DMSO, DMF, EG, H(2)O). This synthesis procedure represents a less time consuming method, with high
