Matrix Effect of Alkali and Alkaline Earth Metal Halides on Fluorescence Quantum Yield of Indium in Laser‐Induced Fluorescence Flame Spectrometry

As interfered with by alkali and alkaline earth metal halides added as the matrix in an acetylene/air flame, the fluorescence quantum yield of In as the analyte in a laser‐induced fluorescence (LIF) flame spectrometry has been thoroughly characterized. The fluorescence quantum yield is determined by a ratio of F to A, where F is the measured fluorescence of In and A is the difference between the absorption signals recorded for the analyte and the blank solutions. The normalized fluorescence signal is treated to prevent deviations due to variations of the atomization efficiency under the conditions with and without the matrix added. The fluorescence quantum yield is measured to be almost independent of the matrix concentration up to 500 ppm (μg/mL) studied, under conditions of either optical unsaturation or saturation. By considering a quenching effect induced by electron‐atom collisions, the calculated fluorescence quantum yields are consistent with our observations.     

Emitting layer analysis of blue thermally activated delayed fluorescence devices using capacitance–voltage method

In this paper, blue thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been elucidated, with a focus on the degradation characteristics of the emission layer (EML). The operational stability against electrical stress was investigated for two host materials and four doping concentrations, which were used as the EML. The operating stability of the devices was confirmed by comparing the peak capacitance before and after degradation. Devices using bis [2-(diphenyl-phosphino) phenyl] ether oxide (DPEPO) as a host exhibited poor degradation characteristics. However, high stability was confirmed when 3,3-di (9H-carba-zol-9-yl)-biphenyl (mCBP) was used. DPEPO host devices are most resistant against performance degradation when they are doped with 10 wt% 10,10'-(4,4′-sulfonylbis(4,1-phenylene))bis(9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine (DMAC-DPS). We successfully determined the electroluminescence characteristics of the device depending on the host material, as well as the doping concentration, using the capacitance–voltage method.     

Cyclodextrin Functionalized Carbon Dots Using IFE and FRET Dual Mechanism for Sequential Detection of Morin and Al3+

Carbon dots (CDs) are emerging photoluminescent materials with excellent optical properties. However, the lack of active sites in primitive CDs has limited their development applications. Herein, functionalized carbon dots (Z-CDs) are successfully prepared by surface modification of CDs with mono (6-amino-6-deoxy) cyclodextrin (β-CD). The introduction of β-CD increases the spatial potential resistance between CDs, which effectively reduces the self-quenching effect. Moreover, the conjugated domains of Z-CDs are expanded, which improves the optical properties with a quantum yield of 48.74%. Z-CDs are able to be used in the sequential detection of morin and Al³⁺, and the fluorescence mechanisms are confirmed to be internal filtration effect and fluorescence resonance energy transfer, respectively. The limits of detection are 0.817 and 0.231 × 10⁻⁶ m . This study not only provides an idea to solve the problem of self-quenching of CDs but also enriches the detection means of flavonoids and ions, which is expected to be applied to biosensing and environmental monitoring.     

Hotel Performance in the UK: The Role of Information Entropy in a Novel Slack-Based Data Envelopment Analysis

Previous hotel performance studies neglected the role of information entropy in feedback processes between input and output management. This paper focuses on this gap by exploring the relationship between hotel performance at the industry level and the capability of learning by doing and adopting best practices using a sample of 153 UK hotels over a 10-year period between 2008–2017. Besides, this research also fills a literature gap by addressing the issues of measuring hotel performance in light of negative outputs. In order to achieve this, we apply a novel Modified slack-based model for the efficiency analysis and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator to examine the influence of entropy related variable on efficiency score. The Results indicate that less can be learnt from inputs than from outputs to improve efficiency levels and resource allocation is more balanced than cash flow and liquidity. The findings suggest that market dynamics explains the cash flow generation potential and liquidity. We find that market conditions are increasingly offering the opportunities for learning and improving hotel efficiency. The results report that the distinctive characteristic of superior performance in hotel operations is the capability to match the cash flow generation potential with market opportunities.     

Degenerate cascade fluorescence: Optical spectral-line narrowing via a single microwave cavity

For a three-level atom, two nondegenerate(even microwave and optical) electric dipole transitions are usually allowed; for either of these, the fluorescence spectra are well-described in terms of spontaneous transitions from a triplet of dressed sublevels to an adjacent lower-lying triplet. When the three dressed sublevels are equally spaced from each other, a remarkable feature known as degenerate cascade fluorescence takes place, which displays a five-peaked structure. We show that a single cavity can make all the spectral lines extremely narrow, whether they arise from cavity-coupled or cavity-free transitions. This effect is based on intrinsic cascade lasing feedback and makes it possible to use a single microwave cavity(even a bad cavity) to narrow the spectral lines in the optical frequency regime.     

Synthesizing Red Fluorescent Carbon Dots from Rigid Polycyclic Conjugated Molecules: Dual-Mode Sensing and Bioimaging in Biochemical Applications

Red fluorescent carbon dots (R-CDs) are special desirable for biochemical analysis due to good biological compatibility and deep penetration; however, they remain as bottlenecks due to difficulties in expanding the sp² domain, especially those are fused from rigid polycyclic conjugated molecules (RPCMs) with heteroatom substituents due to huge steric hindrance and heteroatom blockage toward graphic lattice. Here, an RPCM with heteroatom substituents, 1,5-diamino-4,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone (DDAQ), based self-doped R-CDs with PL emission at 635 nm is reported. Further investigations reveal that the expanding, hybrid sp² domain with indanthrone tannin structure from DDAQ is mainly responsible for the obtained red fluorescence of R-CDs. Taking advantage of optical properties, R-CDs are considered to construct a colorimetric/fluorescent dual mode sensing array for quantifying trace levels of Fe³⁺ and glyphosate based on the static quenching, and a biomarker for cell imaging. The CD-based sensors exhibit outstanding recovery, high selectivity, and sensitivity, also facilitated dual-mode detection with the naked-eye. The R-CDs have low cytotoxicity, good cell membrane penetration for rapid cell entry, and high resolution, demonstrating their potential for biolabeling and bioanalytic applications.
