This paper reports the first-time synthesis of Sr0.99Zr(PO4)2:0.01Eu3+ ceramic glass were synthesized via solution combustion using glycine as fuel (1:1 fuel-to-oxidizer ratio). X-ray diffraction confirmed the desired crystalline phase, while Scherrer analysis indicated an average particle size of approximately 60 nm. This was further supported by scanning electron microscopy, which revealed a particle size around 75 nm. Notably, the material exhibited a characteristic mesoporous structure, a signature feature of the solution combustion technique. Dielectric studies revealed a double exponential decay profile, signifying the presence of voids within the material. Importantly, the significantly smaller time constant (t2) compared to t1 highlights the material's suitability for long-term energy storage applications.
