Gadolinium oxy-carbonate and oxide nanostructures have been successfully obtained via simple non-isothermal heat treatment of gadolinium acetate precursor. Nanosheets of (GdO)2CO3 were developed as a consequence of heating the acetate precursor over the 400–500 °C range and these were stripped into...
