Fig. 1: Controllable glass crystallization for in situ precipitation of LiGa5O8: Mn2+ NCs.

a DSC curve of PG recorded at a heating rate of 10 K/min (Tg, Tc and Tp denote the glass transition temperature and the onset and peak crystallization temperature, respectively). b XRD patterns of PG and TGC annealed at 750 °C for different durations. c Bright-field TEM observation of TGC; insets present HAADF-STEM microscopy on the selected region (top) and the SAED pattern (bottom). d HRTEM observation of the TGC; insets show the denoted nanoparticle with high magnification and the corresponding FFT pattern
