Özet
Zn 1− x Er x O polycrystalline nanoparticles with various compositions (x= 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05, and 0.10) were prepared using sol–gel techniques, for which zinc acetate dihydrate and erbium 2–4 pentanedionate are used as precursors. Nanoparticles were pressed under a pressure of 4 tons for 5 min into disk-shaped compacts with 2 mm thicknesses and 10 mm diameters. The pressed samples were annealed at 400° C for 30 min. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Vickers microhardness analyses of the produced Er-doped ZnO bulk nanomaterials were performed. Specifically, in this study we focused on the analysis of their mechanical properties. Undoped and Er-doped bulk samples were investigated according to Meyer's law; the proportional sample resistance (PSR), elastic/plastic deformation (EPD), and indentation-induced cracking (IIC) models; and the Hays–Kendal …
