Synthesis and Structure of Europium Aluminium Garnet (EAG)

Europium aluminium garnet (Eu3Al5O12 ,E AG) was synthesized by an aqueous sol-gel process and subsequent thermal annealing at 800 850 °C. Eu3Al5O12 crystallizes cubic (Ia3 ¯d, a 12.140(1) A u ) and its crystal structure was refined from X-ray pow- der data. The refined oxygen position in the structure of EAG yields four shorter and four longer distances between europium and
