多孔硅在室温下发出光致荧光展现了硅用作光电子材料和显示技术材料的前景。掺入希土元素可以改善硅的发光性能。本文首次报道多孔硅掺希土的一种新的电化学掺杂方法——恒电位电解,和一种希土硝酸盐-支持电解质-有机溶剂的新电解体系。这一方法和体系的特点是通过采用适当外加电压来控制电解产物,提高掺入的希土浓度,提高发光强度;同时可避免析出使发光不稳定的产物,提高发光稳定性。优化了阳极氧化制备多孔硅的条件和阴极还原制备掺镨多孔硅的条件(镨化合物浓度、溶剂、离子强度、电解电压、时间),获得了光致发光强度高于多孔硅的掺镨多孔硅,并讨论了多孔硅和掺镨多孔硅的光致发光机制。     

Luminescence determination of praseodymium in solutions of its β-diketonates

With the aim of a search for new analytical forms for the determination of praseodymium(III), its 4f luminescence was studied in solutions of mixed-ligand complexes with fluorinated β-diketones and donoractive ligands (1,10-phenanthroline, neocuproine, diantipyrylmethane, diantipyrylpropylmethane, and trioctylphosphine oxide). It was found that the luminescence intensity of praseodymium(III) depends on both the character of the fluoroalkyl substituent in the β-diketone molecule and the nature of the second ligand. The complex of praseodymium(III) with thenoyltrifluoroacetone and diantipyrylpropylmethane was used for the determination of praseodymium in some optical materials. The lower determination limit of praseodymium was 0.01 μg/mL.     

Efficient light harvesting and energy transfer in organic-inorganic hybrid multichromophoric materials

Thin films of silica hybrid materials consisting of two to three covalently bound organic chromophores at different ratios were conveniently synthesized and fabricated. The photophysical properties of these materials have been studied. The fluorescence spectra reveal complete fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from donor to acceptor, and the light-harvesting ability of these hybrid materials increases with increasing the molar fraction of donor chromophore. In a three-chromophore system, the energy is transferred from 300 to 530 nm successfully. Time-resolved fluorescence experiments are employed to elucidate the average rates and efficiencies (84-97%) of energy transfer in these organic/inorganic hybrid systems. The hybrid materials have been shown to provide antenna effect to facilitate energy transfer and light harvesting.

Praseodymium hydroxide and oxide nanorods and Au/Pr6O11 nanorod catalysts for CO oxidation

Praseodymium hydroxide nanorods were synthesized by a two-step approach: First, metallic praseodymium was used to form praseodymium chloride, which reacted subsequently with KOH solution to produce praseodymium hydroxide. In the second step the hydroxide was treated with a concentrated alkaline solution at 180 degrees C for 45 h, yielding nanorods as shown by the scanning and transmission electron microscopy images. The results of X-ray diffraction and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy experiments indicate that these nanorods are pure praseodymium hydroxide with a hexagonal structure, which can be converted into praseodymium oxide (Pr6O11) nanorods of a face-centered cubic structure after calcination at 600 degrees C for 2 h in air. Gold was loaded on the praseodymium oxide nanorods using HAuCl4 as the gold source, and NaBH4 was used to reduce the gold species to metallic nanoparticles with sizes of 8-12 nm on the nanorod surface. These Au/Pr6O11 nanorods exhibit superior catalytic activity for CO oxidation.     

Energy transfer in connection with the photo-oxidation of polystyrene and its blends with poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide)

By fluorescence spectroscopy it is possible to investigate some of the photophysical processes, particularly the energy transfer, that occur during the photo-oxidative degradation of polystyrene (PS), poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (PPO), and homogeneous blends of these. In connection with the irradiation, a part of the absorbed energy is transferred from excited phenyl groups in PS to PPO. The decrease in PS excimer fluorescence at 319 nm by admixture of PPO is greater than expected from the absorption of PPO at the excitation wavelength. A radiative energy transfer is suggested from PS to PPO which absorbs at 319 nm. Energy transfer also occurs to groups formed during photo-oxidation. The quenching of PS excimer fluorescence during the process has been studied for both the homopolymer and the blends, and in all cases the reactions occurring during photo-oxidation result in marked quenching at 319 nm.

Synthesis of multifunctional fluorescent magnetic graphene oxide hybrid materials

Fluorescent magnetic graphene oxide hybrid materials have been fabricated by a multistep method. X-ray diffraction, transmission and scanning electron microscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, vibration sample magnetometry, and energy dispersive spectroscopy were used to characterize the resulting material. The results showed that the materials have a saturation magnetization value of 22.0 emu/g at room temperature and exhibit a symmetrical and narrow emission peak at 544 nm. The resultant materials are able to carry an anti-cancer drug, 5-fluorouracil, with a load capacity of 0.24 mg/mg.     

Designs,Synthesis, Characterization and Direct Electrochemistry of Zinc‐Porphyrin Bearing Pyrene Noncovalent Functionalized Graphene Oxide Sheet

We have designed and synthesis a new compound of zinc‐porphyrin bearing four pyrene groups (ZnP‐t‐P(py)₄) and prepared a new hybrid materials of ZnP‐t‐P(py)₄ with graphene oxide (GO) via non‐covalent interactions. The ZnP‐t‐P(py)₄, along with four pendant pyrene entities ZnP‐t‐P(py)₄, stacking on the (GO) surface due to π‐ π interactions, has been revealed by AFM measurements. FTIR, UV‐vis absorption confirm the non‐covalent functionalization of the GO. Raman spectral measurements revealed the electronic structure of the GO to be intact upon hybrid formation. In this donor‐acceptor nanohybrid, the fluorescence of photoexcited ZnP‐t‐P(py)₄ is effectively quenched by a possible electron‐transfer process. The fluorescence and photoelectrical response measurements also showed that this hybrid may act as an efficient photoelectric conversion material for optoelectronic applications.     

Self-assembly of polymer and molybdenum oxide into lamellar hybrid materials

We report on self-assembly of polymer and molybdenum oxide chains into a new class of lamellar hybrid materials. Aqueous ammonium molybdate and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) or carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) were used as the starting materials. Ammonium molybdate was hydrolyzed into layered molybdenum oxide under acidified conditions. The organic polymer chains and the inorganic molybdenum oxide layers self-assemble and pack into new hybrid composites. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images and polarized microscopy show that these two new materials have typical lamellar structure. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) images show that the layer thickness is about 100 nm. X-ray diffraction (XRD) data confirm the formation of inorganic molybdenum oxide. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) data gave thermal behavior of these composites. The mechanism of this hybrid reaction and the templating function of polymers were discussed in this paper. A special entropy effect was discovered when polymer was used as guest species. This entropy effect makes polymers preferential candidates as guest species rather than small molecules when fabricating organic/inorganic layered hybrid materials. We believe that this opens a new way to create organic/inorganic hybrid superstructures.
