Growth and Spectral Characterization of Nd3+∶(Sr0.7Ca0.3)3Y(BO3)3 Crystal

A Nd3+ :(Sr0.7Ca0.3)3Y(BO3)3 crystal with dimensions of 17×23 mm3 has been grown by the Czochralski method. The spectroscopic characterization of Nd3+ :(Sr0.7Ca0.3)3Y(BO3)3 crystal was investigated. The polarized absorption cross-sections of Nd3+ :(Sr0.7Ca0.3)3Y(BO3)3 crystal are 2.81×10-20 cm2 with full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 14 nm at 808 nm for σ-polarization and 2.04×10 -20 cm 2 with FWHM of 19 nm at 807 nm for σ-polarization, respectively. The polarized emission cross-sections of Nd3+ :(Sr0.7Ca0.3)3Y(BO3)3 crystal are 12.2×10-20 cm2 at 1062 nm for the π-polarization and 13.6×10-20 cm2 at 1061 nm for the σ-polarization, respectively. After the Ca 2+ ion partly substitutes for Sr2+ ion in the Sr3Y(BO3)3 crystal to form the (Sr0.7Ca0.3)3Y(BO3)3 solid solution, it can improve the quantum efficiency of Nd3+ :(Sr0.7Ca0.3)3Y(BO3)3 crystal. The quantum efficiency is 31.7%. These results may be regarded Nd3+ :(Sr0.7Ca0.3)3Y(BO3)3 crystal as a potential solid-state laser material.     

Bright white light through up-conversion of a single NIR source from sol-gel-derived thin film made with Ln3+-doped LaF3 nanoparticles

White light was generated from a single silica thin film made with Yb0.75La0.2Eu0.05F3, La0.45Yb0.5Er0.05F3, and La0.75Yb0.2Tm0.05F3 nanoparticles by exciting with a single source near-infrared light (980 nm CW diode laser). Eu3+ and Tm3+ ions are responsible for red and blue emission, respectively. Er3+ ion is responsible for green as well as red emission. The Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of the resulting light were easily adjusted by controlling the concentration of Ln3+ (Eu3+, Er3+, Tm3+) ions in the nanoparticles as well as the concentration of Ln3+-doped nanoparticles in the sol-gel thin layer.

Gas-phase ion chemistry of BF3/HN3 mixtures: the first observation of [BFnNxHn-1]+ (n=1, 2; x=1, 3) ions

The gas-phase ion chemistry of BF3/HN3 mixtures was investigated by the joint application of mass spectrometric techniques and theoretical methods. The addition of BF2+ to HN3 led to the first observation of [BFnNxHn-1]+ (n=1, 2; x=1, 3) ions in the gas phase. Consistent with collisionally activated dissociation (CAD) mass spectrometric results, theoretical calculations performed at the B3LYP and CCSD(T) levels identified the F2B-NH-N2+, F2B-NH+, FB-N3+, and FBN+ ions as the most stable isomers on the [BFnNxHn-1]+ (n=1, 2; x=1, 3) potential energy surfaces. The F2B-NH+ and FBN+ ions, characterized by a triplet ground state, are formed from F2B-NH-N2+ and FB-N3+ through a spin-forbidden decomposition process. It is worth noting that F2BNH-N2+ is the protonated form of difluoroboron azide, BF2N3, a neutral molecule that has never been experimentally detected. The application of theoretical and experimental methods allowed evaluation of the unknown PA of BF2N3, whose best theoretical estimate 171.2+/-3 kcal mol-1 at the CCSD(T) level is comparable with the experimental one, 170.1+/-3 kcal mol-1. The main interest of all these ionic species is represented by their possible application in boron nitride (BN) physical and chemical vapor deposition.     

Speciation of cyclo(Pro-Gly)<Subscript>3</Subscript> and its divalent metal-ion complexes by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) was used to study the binding of selected group II and divalent transition-metal ions by cyclo(Pro-Gly)3 (CPG3), a model ion carrier peptide. Metal salts (CatXn) were combined with the peptide (M) at a molar ratio of 1:10 M/Cat in aqueous solvents containing 50% vol/vol acetonitrile or methanol and 1 or 10 mM ammonium acetate (NH4Ac). Species detected include [M+H]+, [M+Cat-H]+, [M2+Cat]2+, [M+Cat+Ac]+, and [M+Cat+X]+. The relative stabilities of complexes formed with different cations (Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, Mn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+) were determined from the abundance of 1:1 and 2:1 M/Cat species relative to that of the unbound peptide. The largest metal ions (Ca2+, Sr2+, and Mn2+) formed the most stable complexes. Reducing the buffer concentration increased the overall extent of metal binding. Results show that the binding specificity of CPG3 depends upon the size of the metal ion and its propensity for electrostatic interaction with oxygen atoms. Product ion tandem mass spectrometry of [M+H]+ and [M+Cu-H]+ confirmed the cyclic structure of the peptide, although the initial site(s) of metal attachment could not be determined.     

Growth and Crystal Structure of YbAl3（BO3）4

1 INTRODUCTION With the development of high power InGaAs laser diode (LD) as pump sources, the Yb3+-doped laser crystals have received much attention. Due to the simple energy level structure of the Yb3+ ions, the Yb3+-doped laser crystals have no concentration quenching, and have high quantum efficiency and low quantum defects even at high doping concentration of the Yb3+ ions[1, 2]. Therefore, the Yb3+-doped crystals are good candidates of media in the LD-pumped solid-state laser,…     

幻数团簇离子Mn+5

Magic number cluster ion Mn5+ and abundant Mn/O cluster ions havc been formed by 532nm laser ablation of MnCO3 solid sample with time-of-flight mass spectroscopy detection. The experimental results show that Mn5+ was formed in the cooler dilute tail region of the plume produced by laser ablation, while Mn/O cluster ions were mainly formed in the hotter dense preceding portion of the plume, they all were produced by postablation cluster growth in the ablation plume. Pentagonal with D(5h) symmetry is the possible structure of Mn5+, which is supported by our ab initio calculation.     

Weakly coordinating anions HA2-generated from oxoanions A- and their conjugate acids. Coordination equilibria,ionic conductivities,and the structures of [Cu2(H(CH3SO3)2)4]n and [Cu(CO)(H(CF3CO2)2)]2

The coordination or ion pairing of the hydrogen-bonded anions H(CF3CO2)2- and H(CH3SO3)2- to NEt4+, Li+, Cu+, and/or Cu2+ was investigated. The structure of [Cu2(H(CH3SO3)2)4]n consists of centrosymmetric dimeric moieties that contain two homoconjugated (CH3SO2O-H...OSO2CH3)- anions per Cu2+ ion, forming typical Jahn-Teller tetragonally elongated CuO6 coordination spheres. The oxygen atoms involved in the nearly linear O-H...O hydrogen bonds (O...O approximately 2.62 A) are not coordinated to the Cu2+ ions. The structure of Cu2(CO)2(H(CF3-CO2)2)2 consists of pseudo-C2-symmetric dimers that contain one homoconjugated (CF3COO-H...OCOCF3)- anion per Cu+ ion, forming highly distorted tetrahedral Cu(CO)O3 coordination spheres. Three of the four oxygen atoms in each hydrogen-bonded H(CF3CO2)2- anion are coordinated to the Cu+ ions, including one of the oxygen atoms in each O-H...O hydrogen bond (O...O approximately 2.62 A). Infrared spectra (v(CO) values) of Cu(CO)(CF3CO2) or Cu(CO)(CH3SO3) dissolved in acetonitrile or benzene, with and without added CF3COOH or CH3SO3H, respectively, demonstrate that HA2- anions involving carboxylates or sulfonates are more weakly coordinating than the parent anions RCO2- and RSO3-. Direct current conductivities of THF solutions of Li(CF3CO2) containing varying concentrations of added CF3COOH further demonstrate that Li+ and NEt4+ ion pair much more weakly with H(CF3CO2)2- than with CF3CO2-.     

Structural models for yttrium aluminium borate laser glasses: NMR and EPR studies of the system (Y2O3)(0.2)-(Al2O3)x-(B2O3)(0.8-x)

The structure of laser glasses in the system (Y(2)O(3))(0.2){(Al(2)O(3))(x))(B(2)O(3))(0.8-x)} (0.15 ≤ x ≤ 0.40) has been investigated by means of (11)B, (27)Al, and (89)Y solid state NMR as well as electron spin echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) of Yb-doped samples. The latter technique has been applied for the first time to an aluminoborate glass system. (11)B magic-angle spinning (MAS)-NMR spectra reveal that, while the majority of the boron atoms are three-coordinated over the entire composition region, the fraction of three-coordinated boron atoms increases significantly with increasing x. Charge balance considerations as well as (11)B NMR lineshape analyses suggest that the dominant borate species are predominantly singly charged metaborate (BO(2/2)O(-)), doubly charged pyroborate (BO(1/2)(O(-))(2)), and (at x = 0.40) triply charged orthoborate groups. As x increases along this series, the average anionic charge per trigonal borate group increases from 1.38 to 2.91. (27)Al MAS-NMR spectra show that the alumina species are present in the coordination states four, five and six, and the fraction of four-coordinated Al increases markedly with increasing x. All of the Al coordination states are in intimate contact with both the three- and the four-coordinate boron species and vice versa, as indicated by (11)B/(27)Al rotational echo double resonance (REDOR) data. These results are consistent with the formation of a homogeneous, non-segregated glass structure. (89)Y solid state NMR spectra show a significant chemical shift trend, reflecting that the second coordination sphere becomes increasingly "aluminate-like" with increasing x. This conclusion is supported by electron spin echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) data of Yb-doped glasses, which indicate that both borate and aluminate species participate in the medium range structure of the rare-earth ions, consistent with a random spatial distribution of the glass components.     

退火温度对PLD法制备ZnO:Eu3+,Li+薄膜结构和发光性质的影响

采用脉冲激光沉积(PLD)法在Si(111)衬底上制备了Eu3+,Li+共掺杂的ZnO薄膜,分别在450,500,550和600℃条件下进行退火,退火气氛为真空。利用X射线衍射(XRD)仪和荧光分光光度计研究了退火温度对薄膜结构和光致发光(PL)的影响。研究结果表明,Eu3+,Li+共掺杂的ZnO薄膜具有c轴择优取向,Eu3+,Li+没有单独形成结晶的氧化物,均以离子形式掺入ZnO晶格中。PL谱中有较宽的ZnO基质缺陷发光,ZnO基质与稀土Eu3+之间存在能量传递,但没有有效的能量传递。随着退火温度的增加,薄膜发光先增强后减弱,退火温度为550℃时发光最强。当用395 nm的激发光激发样品时,仅观察到稀土Eu3+在594 nm附近的特征发光峰,但发光强度随退火温度变化不明显。     

Effective solvation of alkaline earth ions by proline-rich proteolytic peptides of galectin-3 upon electrospray ionisation

In an analysis of a combined chymotrypsin/AspN digest of galectin-3 by positive ion nano-electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (nanoESI-MS) several peptides were observed which showed metal adduct ions as their most abundant ion signals. The most prominent adduct ions were observed at m/z values corresponding to [M+40]2+, [M+41]3+, and [M+42]4+ ions. Detailed investigation of the [M+40]2+ ion of the peptide GAPAGPLIVPY showed that it was not, as originally expected, a [M+H+39K]2+ adduct ion but had the composition [M+40Ca]2+. This was verified by several approaches: (i) nanoESI-MS/MS of the [M+Ca]2+ adduct ions resulted in the virtually exclusive formation of doubly charged fragment ions; (ii) mass determination by quadrupole time-of-flight (QTOF)-MS provided a preliminary identification; and (iii) accurate mass measurement using nanoESI Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR)-MS at a mass resolving power of 500 000 allowed the specific detection and identification of the isobaric ion pairs [M+40Ca]2+/[M+H+39K]2+ and [M+24Mg]2+/[M+H+23Na]2+. All peptides in the chymotryptic galectin-3 digest without a basic residue (K or R) showed addition of calcium as the most prominent ionisation principle. A further common feature of these nonbasic peptides was the presence of several proline residues, which is assumed to be a factor promoting the intense addition of calcium. It was observed that the common trace levels of sodium and calcium in analytical grade solvents (about 1-10 microM) are sufficient to generate the [M+H+23Na]2+ and [M+40Ca]2+ ions as the most prominent species of the peptide GAPAGPLIVPY. We conclude that the sequence motifs P-XX-P and P-XXX-P favour the solvation of alkaline earth ions in ESI-MS. In view of the successful detection of physiological Ca/protein interactions by ESI-MS, this finding may point to a solvation of Ca2+ by galectin in solution. The findings open new routes of research in the study of metal/protein and metal/peptide interactions

Thermoluminescence study of persistent luminescence materials: Eu2+- and R3+-doped calcium aluminates, CaAl2O4:Eu2+,R3+

Thermoluminescence properties of the Eu2+-, R3+-doped calcium aluminate materials, CaAl2O4:Eu2+,R3+, were studied above room temperature. The trap depths were estimated with the aid of the preheating and initial rise methods. The seemingly simple glow curve of CaAl2O4:Eu2+ peaking at ca. 80 degrees C was found to correspond to several traps. The Nd3+ and Tm3+ ions, which enhance most the intensity of the high-temperature TL peaks, form the most suitable traps for intense and long-lasting persistent luminescence, too. The location of the 4f and 5d ground levels of the R3+ and R2+ ions were deduced in relation to the band structure of CaAl2O4. No clear correlation was found between the trap depths and the R3+ or R2+ level locations. The traps may thus involve more complex mechanisms than the simple charge transfer to (or from) the R3+ ions. A new persistent luminescence mechanism presented is based on the photoionization of the electrons from Eu2+ to the conduction band followed by the electron trapping to an oxygen vacancy, which is aggregated with a calcium vacancy and a R3+ ion. The migration of the electron from one trap to another and also to the aggregated R3+ ion forming R2+ (or R3+-e-) is then occurring. The reverse process of a release of the electron from traps to Eu2+ will produce the persistent luminescence. The ability of the R3+ ions to trap electrons is probably based on the different reduction potentials and size of the R3+ ions. Hole trapping to a calcium vacancy and/or the R3+ ion may also occur. The mechanism presented can also explain why Na+, Sm3+, and Yb3+ suppress the persistent luminescence.

Spectral analysis of Mn2+, Co2+ and Ni2+: B2O3-ZnO-PbO glasses

This paper reports on the spectral properties of Mn2+, Co2+ and Ni2+ ions doped B2O3-ZnO-PbO glasses. XRD, FT-IR spectra and DSC profiles of these glasses have also been carried out, and the FT-IR profiles have shown the presence of both BO3 and BO4 units. It is interesting to notice that the FT-IR peak positions are slightly shifted towards higher energy with an increase in transition metal ion concentration change. From the measured DSC thermograms, glass transition (T(g)), crystallization (T(c)) and temperature of melting (T(m)) have been evaluated. From the UV absorption spectra of Mn2+, Co2+ and Ni2+ ions doped glasses, both direct and indirect optical band gaps have been calculated. The visible absorption spectra of Mn2+:glasses have shown a broad absorption band at 520 nm (6A1g(S) --> 4T1g(G)); with Co2+ ions one absorption band at 605 nm (4A2(4F) --> 4T1(4P)) and another at 1450 nm (4A2(4F) --> 4T1(4F)); and for Ni2+:glasses three absorption bands at 420 nm (3A2g(F) --> 3T1g(P)), 805 nm (3A2g(F) --> 1Eg(D)) and 880 nm (3A2g(F) --> 3T1g(F)) have been observed. For Mn2+:glasses, upon excitation with 262 nm, a green emission (539 nm) with a slight blue shift; and with 392 nm, a green emission (534 nm) with a slight red shift with Mn2+ ions concentration change (0.2-0.5 mol%) has been observed. This green emission has been assigned to (4T1(G) --> 6A1(S)) d-d transition of Mn2+ ions that are in tetrahedral co-ordination. For 0.5 mol% Co2+ ions doped glass, upon excitation with 580 nm, a red emission (625 nm) has been observed which originates from 2E(2G) --> 4A2(4F) transition of Co2+ ions in tetrahedral co-ordination. For Ni2+ ions doped glasses upon excitation with 420 nm, a green (577 nm) and red (670 nm) emissions are observed and are assigned to (1T2g(D) --> 3A2g(F)) and (1T2g(D) --> 3T2g(F)) d-d transitions of Ni2+ ions in octahedral co-ordination.     

Photodissociation of Mg+-XCH3 (X=F, Cl, Br, and I) complexes. II. Fragment angular and energy distributions

Angular and energy distributions of photofragments from Mg+-XCH3 (X=F, Cl, Br, and I) were deduced from time-of-flight (TOF) profiles measured by rotating the polarization direction of the dissociation laser with respect to ion beam direction. The TOF profiles of ICH3+ and MgI+ fragment ions produced from Mg+-ICH3 complex with 266 and 355 nm photons showed clear but opposite recoil anisotropy to each other. In addition, BrCH3+ formed by a dissociation of the Mg+-BrCH3 complex at a photolysis wavelength of 266 nm also showed an anisotropic distribution in the TOF profile which had the same behavior as the profile of ICH3+. For Mg+-FCH3 complex, CH3+ and MgF+ formed with a 266 nm photon had also spatial anisotropy, in which the TOF profile of MgF+ was almost opposite to that of MgI+. These anisotropic distributions were explained by (1) local excitation on the Mg+ ion, (2) rapid dissociation compared with a rotational period of the parent complex, and (3) geometrical structures of the parent complexes. Anisotropy beta parameter values were determined to be +1.30(ICH3+), -0.50(MgI+), +0.74(BrCH3+), and +0.75(CH3+ and MgF+). This dependence on the halogen atom observed in beta values was qualitatively explained by both the geometrical parameters and classical rotational periods of parent complexes. In the product energy distribution, 46%, 40%, 21%, 16%, and 16% of available energies were found to be transferred into translational energies of ICH3+, MgI+, BrCH3 +, CH3+, and MgF+, respectively. These values were compared with energy distributions estimated by a statistical prior distribution and a nonstatistical impulsive model. For ICH3+ and MgI+, the translational energies determined from the measurement had values between those estimated from statistical and nonstatistical models. On the other hand, the energy partitioning for the product ions of BrCH3+, CH3+, and MgF+ was found to be almost statistical. From these considerations, we concluded that nonstatistical processes were more important in the dissociation of Mg+-ICH3 than in other systems.     

Wavelength-dependent fragmentation and clustering observed after femtosecond laser ablation of solid C60

We report here the resonance effect in femtosecond laser ablation of solid C60 by investigating wavelength and fluence dependence of product ion species. When the ablation laser wavelength is far from the molecular absorption band of C60, we observe both C60-2n+ fragment ions and C60+2n+ cluster ions as well as C60+ parent ion. Delayed ionization of C60 is not significant. When the ablation laser wavelength is near resonant with the molecular absorption, we observe C60+ and some amount of C60-2n+ fragment ions depending on the laser fluence. Delayed ionization of C60 is significant in this case, which indicates high internal energy of C60 molecule. From the observations, we confirm the strong coupling of femtosecond laser energy with C60 molecule when the molecular absorption is high at the ablation laser wavelength.     

A copper(II) ion-selective on-off-type fluoroionophore based on zinc porphyrin-dipyridylamino

A new copper(II) fluorescent sensor 5,10,15,20-tetra((p-N,N-bis(2-pyridyl)amino)phenyl)porphyrin zinc (1) has been designed and synthesized by the Ullmann-type condensation of bromoporphyrin zinc with 2,2'-dipyridylamine (dpa) under copper powder as a catalyst as well as with K2CO3 as the base in a DMF solution. It consists of two separately functional moieties: the zinc porphyrin performs as a fluorophore, and the dpa-linked-to-zinc porphyrin acts as a selected binding site for metal ions. It displays a high selectivity and antidisturbance for the Cu2+ ion among the metal ions examined (Na+, Mg2+, Cr3+, Mn2+, Fe2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Ag+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Hg2+, and Fe3+) and exhibits fluorescence quenching upon the binding of the Cu2+ ion with an "on-off"-type fluoroionophoric switching property. The detection limit is found to be 3.3 x 10(-7) M (3s blank) for Cu2+ ion in methanol solution, and its fluorescence can be revived by the addition of EDTA disodium solution. The design strategy and remarkable photophysical properties of sensor 1 help to extend the development of fluorescent sensors for metal ions.     

Synthesis and cofluorescence of Eu(Y) complexes with salicylic acid and o-phenanthroline

A series of dinuclear complexes of salicylic acid (HSal) and o-phenanthroline (Phen) with different molar ratios of Eu3+ to Y3+ have been synthesized. Their compositions are Eu(x)Y(1-x) (Sal)3(Phen) (x = 0 to approximately 1). Their UV spectra, IR spectra, and fluorescence spectra were studied. The UV spectra of the complexes reflect essentially absorption of the ligands for the fact that no obvious change of wavelength and band shape is found between the spectra of the complexes and that of the ligands except slight red shift. The IR absorption spectra indicate that salicylic acid is coordinated to the rare earth ions and chemical bonds are formed between rare earth ions and nitrogen atoms of o-phenanthroline. The fluorescence spectra of the complexes indicate that the fluorescence emission intensity of europium ion was enhanced by the addition of Y3+, which is referred to as cofluorescence. These facts show that not only the ligands but also the yttrium complex can transfer the absorbed energy to Eu3+ ion in the complexes. Formation of polynuclear complexes appears to be responsible for cofluorescence.
