Synthesis and characterization of nanoporous NaYF4:Yb3+, Tm3+@SiO2 nanocomposites

Novel upconversion nanocomposites with nanoporous structure were presented in this paper. Silica-coated cubic NaYF₄:Yb³⁺, Tm³⁺ nanoparticles were first prepared. After annealing, monodisperse cubic/hexagonal mixed phases NaYF₄:Yb³⁺, Tm³⁺@SiO₂ nanoparticles were obtained, and the NaYF₄:Yb³⁺, Tm³⁺ cores became nanoporous. To the best of our knowledge, the nanoporous structure in NaYF₄:Yb³⁺, Tm³⁺@SiO₂ nanocomposites was observed for the first time. They demonstrate increased upconversion emission compared with unannealed dense NaYF₄:Yb³⁺, Tm³⁺ nanoparticles due to the appearance of the hexagonal NaYF₄:Yb³⁺, Tm³⁺. The silica shell not only makes the nanocomposites possess bio-affinity but also protects the NaYF₄:Yb³⁺, Tm³⁺ cores from aggregating and growing up. Thus the upconversion, nanoporous and bio-affinity properties were combined into one single nanoparticle. The nanocomposites have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), small angle X-ray diffraction (SAXRD) and emission spectroscopy. These multifunctional nanocomposites are expected to find applications in biological fields, such as biolabels, drug storage and delivery.

Bi3+‐Er3+ and Bi3+‐Yb3+ Codoped Cs2AgInCl6 Double Perovskite Near‐Infrared Emitters

Bi³⁺ and lanthanide ions have been codoped in metal oxides as optical sensitizers and emitters. But such codoping is not known in typical semiconductors such as Si, GaAs, and CdSe. Metal halide perovskite with coordination number 6 provides an opportunity to codope Bi³⁺ and lanthanide ions. Codoping of Bi³⁺ and Ln³⁺ (Ln=Er and Yb) in Cs₂AgInCl₆ double perovskite is presented. Bi³⁺‐Er³⁺ codoped Cs₂AgInCl₆ shows Er³⁺ f‐electron emission at 1540 nm (suitable for low‐loss optical communication). Bi³⁺ codoping decreases the excitation (absorption) energy, such that the samples can be excited with ca. 370 nm light. At that excitation, Bi³⁺‐Er³⁺ codoped Cs₂AgInCl₆ shows ca. 45 times higher emission intensity compared to the Er³⁺ doped Cs₂AgInCl₆. Similar results are also observed in Bi³⁺‐Yb³⁺ codoped sample emitting at 994 nm. A combination of temperature‐dependent (5.7 K to 423 K) photoluminescence and calculations is used to understand the optical sensitization and emission processes.

Electrocatalytic Determination of Hydrazine and Phenol Using a Carbon Paste Electrode Modified with Ionic Liquids and Magnetic Core‐shell Fe3O4@SiO2/MWCNT Nanocomposite

A carbon paste electrode was modified with 2‐(4‐Oxo‐3‐phenyl‐3,4‐dihydroquinazolinyl)‐N′‐phenyl‐hydrazinecarbothioamide, magnetic core? shell Fe₃O₄@SiO₂/MWCNT nanocomposite and ionic liquid (n‐hexyl‐3‐methylimidazolium hexafluoro phosphate). The electro‐oxidation of hydrazine at the surface of the modified electrode was studied using electrochemical approaches. This modified electrode offers a considerable improvement in voltammetric sensitivity toward hydrazine, compared to the bare electrode. Square wave voltammetry (SWV) exhibits a linear dynamic range from 7.0×10^?8 to 5.0×10^?4 M and a detection limit of 40.0 nM for hydrazine. The diffusion coefficient and kinetic parameters (such as electron transfer coefficient and the heterogeneous rate constant) for hydrazine oxidation were also determined. The prepared modified electrode exhibits a very good resolution between the voltammetric peaks of hydrazine and phenol that makes it suitable for the detection of hydrazine in the presence of phenol in real samples.     

Luminescent Ink Based on Upconversion of NaYF4:Er,Yb@MA Nanoparticles: Environmental Friendly Synthesis and Structural and Spectroscopic Assessment

NaYF₄:Er,Yb upconversion luminescent nanoparticles (UCNPs) were prepared by hydrothermal methods at 180 °C for 24 h. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and TEM (transmission electron microscopy) images show that the resulting 60 nm UCNPs possess a hexagonal structure. In this work, maleic anhydride (MA) was grafted on the surface of UCNPs to induce hydrophilic properties. The photoluminescence spectra (PL) show upconversion emissions centered around 545 nm and 660 nm under excitation at 980 nm. The luminescent inks, including UCNPs@MA, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), deionized water (DI), and ethylene glycol (EG), exhibit suitable properties for screen printing, such as high stability, emission intensity, and tunable dynamic viscosity. The printed patterns with a height of 5 mm and a width of 1.5 mm were clearly observed under the irradiation of a 980 nm laser. Our strategy provides a new route for the controlled synthesis of hydrophilic UCNPs, and shows that the UCNPs@MAs have great potential in applications of anti-counterfeiting packing.
