Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A conventional melt quenching technique was used to successfully fabricate MnO -doped willemite glass-ceramics (ZnSiO:Mn) produced from the ZnO-SLS glasses. The results from XRD revealed that willemite crystallization is improved by increasing the sintering duration. It was revealed that, as the sintering duration progressed, the phase formation shifted from amorphous to α-ZnSiO crystal. In addition, the structural growth of willemite phases can be seen using FTIR spectroscopy. The results of UV-Vis spectroscopy indicated that the intense absorption occurs in the UV zone, with wavelengths ranging from 250 nm to 400 nm, while the optical band gap showed a decreasing trend from 3.61 eV to 2.52 eV. These results perfectly established that Mn dopant is potentially beneficial for producing willemite glass-ceramics for optoelectronic applications.
