镱铥共掺杂的氟化镧纳米粒子的亮蓝色上转换发光

采用反胶束法合成镱铥共掺杂的氟化镧纳米粒子.这种反胶束是由微乳液作为合成媒介,这些分散的纳米粒子在化学成分、尺寸分布上是可控的.产物形貌经场发射扫描电镜和透射电镜表征.固态样品分散在乙醇中,在未经超声处理时,样品表现为玉米棒样的聚集.棒的平均直径和长度分别为110,575nm.我们认为这种大量纳米粒子聚集成良好超结构是由于溶剂挥发,分子交叉链接或者表面活性剂分子附着于纳米粒子特殊晶面造成的.当样品经过超声处理后,由于超声振动破坏了上述因素,玉米棒形貌的聚集体转为大量纳米粒子.单个粒子的高分辨电镜显示出该纳米粒子的单晶结构.并且晶面间距约为0.366nm,与纯氟化镧六角相[002]晶面相一致.样品在300℃退火30min后的透射电镜照片显示纳米粒子的平均直径大约为35nm,这与XRD结果相吻合.并且,这些纳米粒子表现出了良好的单分散性,并且在978nm二极管激发下,纳米粒子呈现出亮蓝色上转换发光,这种上转换荧光粉在光电子或生物检测中有潜在的应用前景.

Nanoparticles: Implication of Ligand Choice on Surface Properties,Crystal Structure,and Magnetic Properties of Iron Nanoparticles (Part. Part. Syst. Charact. 3/2013)

The behavior of iron nanoparticles is heavily influenced by their highly reactive surfaces. A better understanding of organic ligand/particle interactions must be achieved in order to synthesize iron nanoparticles with magnetic saturations (σ _sat) equivalent to bulk iron. Even when synthesized using careful, air‐free chemistry techniques and ligands more weakly interacting than those often reported in the literature, the magnetic saturation of iron nanoparticles generally only approaches, but not equals, the magnetic saturation of bulk iron. Here, iron nanoparticles are synthesized using Schlenk line chemistry methods and two different weakly interacting ligands: 2,4‐pentanedione and hexaethylene glycol monododecylether. These particles have saturation magnetizations slightly lower than bulk iron, which is believed to be caused by interactions between the passivating ligands and the surface of the nanoparticles. Using X‐ray absorption fine structure studies, it is shown that oxidized species of iron exist at the nanoparticles’ surface and can be attributed to iron/ligand interaction. The percentage of oxidized species scales with the surface to volume ratio of the nanoparticles, and therefore appears limited to the nanoparticle surface. X‐ray absorption fine structure analysis also shows that the nanoparticles have an expanded crystalline lattice, which can further impact their magnetic properties.
