Luminescent molecular hybrid system derived from 2-furancarboxylic acid and silylated monomer coordinated to rare earth ions

In this study, silica-based organic-inorganic hybrids were prepared by the sol-gel method. Tetraethoxysilane (abbreviated as TEOS) and a kind of monomer (abbreviated as FA-APES) derived from modified 2-furancarboxylic acid (abbreviated as FA) with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (abbreviated as APES) were used as the inorganic and organic fragments, respectively. Coordination reaction between lanthanides (europium and terbium ions) and CO group of the monomer happened simultaneously. And after days of aging process the resultant materials showed characteristic luminescence of lanthanides. The enhancement of luminescence can be seen by the comparison with simply doped lanthanide hybrid systems. And it can be explained by the coordination ability of the organic counterpart. IR, NMR, UV-vis absorption, low-temperature phosphorescence spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy were applied to characterize and the above spectroscopic data revealed that the triplet state energy of organic ligand matches with the emissive energy level of lanthanides (especially of Tb³⁺).     

Self-assembly of doped semiconductor nanocrystals leading to the formation of highly luminescent nanorods

Meso-scale self-assembly of doped semiconductor nanocrystals leading to the formation of monocrystalline nanorods showing enhanced photo- and electro-luminescence properties are reported. Polycrystalline ZnS: Cu⁺-Al³⁺ nanoparticles of zinc-blended (cubic) structure with an average size of ∼4 nm were aggregated in aqueous solution and grown into nanorods of length ∼400 nm and aspect ratio ∼12. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) images indicate crystal growth mechanisms involving particle-to-particle oriented-attachment assisted by sulphur-sulphur catenation leading to covalent-linkage. The nanorods exhibit self-assembly dependant luminescence properties such as quenching of the lattice defect-related emissions accompanied by enhancement of dopant-related emission, efficient low-voltage electroluminescence (EL) and super-linear voltage-brightness EL characteristics. This study demonstrates the technological importance of aggregation based self-assembly in doped semiconductor nanosystems.

Visible and NIR luminescence of nanocrystalline β-Ga2O3:Er prepared by solution combustion synthesis

In this paper we report on facile solution combustion synthesis of erbium doped β-Ga₂O₃ with urea as fuel. The product was characterized using powder X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). X-ray diffraction and TEM showed that the material is nanostructured. Luminescence properties of β-Ga₂O₃:Er are studied with excitation in near infrared (Nd:YAG laser at 1064 nm) and visible (argon laser at 514.5 nm). A strong NIR emission of Er³⁺ in the window of minimal optical loss in silica based optical fibers, due to the ⁴I_13/2→⁴I_15/2 transition at 1.55 μm has been observed. Codoping with Yb³⁺ significantly increases the intensity of that important emission.     

Photoluminescence of ZnO nanowires dependent on O2 and Ar annealing

High-purity ZnO nanowires have been synthesized on Si substrates without the presence of a catalyst at 600 °C by a simple thermal vapor technique. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the annealed samples at 900 °C under oxygen and argon gases have been investigated. After O₂ or Ar annealing, the PL visible-emission intensity that is related to intrinsic defects (oxygen vacancies) is greatly reduced compared with as-grown ZnO nanowires because the oxygen-gas ions or oxygen interstitials diffuse into the oxygen vacancies during annealing process. The blue-band peak of the O₂- or Ar-annealed ZnO naonowires is also smaller than the green-band peak in the visible broadband because of the reduction of oxygen vacancies. Therefore, the main intrinsic defects (oxygen vacancies) of as-grown ZnO nanowires can be reduced by O₂ or Ar annealing, which is an important procedure for the development of advanced optoelectronic ZnO nanowire devices.     

Ultrasound assisted synthesis of amide functionalized metal-organic framework for nitroaromatic sensing

Nano plates of zinc(II) based metal-organic framework (MOF) were prepared via ultrasonic method without any surfactants at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Control of particle size and morphology was enhanced in this synthesis method. Nano plates of an interpenetrated amide-functionalized metal-organic framework, [Zn₂(oba)₂(bpfb)]·(DMF)₅, TMU-23, (H₂oba = 4,4′-oxybis(benzoic acid); bpfb = N,N′-bis-(4-pyridylformamide)-1,4-benzenediamine, DMF = N,N-dimethyl formamide), was synthesized under ultrasound irradiation in different concentrations of initial precursor. The nano structure and morphology of the synthesized MOF were characterized by Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), powder X-ray diffraction, thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), elemental analysis and FTIR spectroscopy. Moreover, Fluorescence emissions of nanoplates have been studied. Amide-functionalized MOF shows high selectivity for sensing of nitroaromatic compounds such as nitrophenol, nitroaniline, and nitrobenzene in acetonitrile solution. Fluorescence intensity decreased with increasing contents of nitroaromatics in acetonitrile solution due to fluorescence quenching effect.     

Elongated hexagonal ZnO micro-fence optical resonator

A highly symmetric ZnO micro-fence is prepared to form an optical resonator, which a symmetric array consisting of six elongated hexagonal microcolumns. It is found that the luminescence emission could be enhanced at the edge of ZnO micro-fence and the wavelength dependent light intensity could be influenced by its geometry. The optical characterization along with theoretical calculations and computer simulation analysis suggest that the Fabry-Perot and Cross-whispering gallery modes are generated in ZnO micro-fence. The individual ZnO micro-fence can regarded as an optical resonator structure. Furthermore, it is proposed that the source concentration around the substrate during the growth is a crucial factor for forming such a micro-fence.     

Theoretical study of photoluminescence spectroscopy of strong exciton-polariton coupling in dielectric nanodisks with anapole states

Semiconductor nanoparticles and nanostructures in the strong coupling regime exhibit an intriguing energy scale in the optical frequencies, which is specified by the Rabi splitting between the upper and lower exciton-polariton states. Technically, exciton-polaritons are part-light, part-matter quasiparticles that arise from the strong interaction of excitonic substances and photonic platforms. In this work, using full-wave numerical and theoretical studies, we showed the emergence of strong light-matter coupling between the nonradiating anapole states from an individual semiconductor nanodisk coupled to a J-aggregate fluorescent dye molecule resonating in the visible spectrum. By demonstrating the physical mechanism behind the observed energy splitting for various Lorentzian linewidth of excitonic material, we theoretically confirmed the obtained spectral responses by conducting photoluminescence spectroscopy analysis. The coupling of anapole resonances in semiconductor nanoparticles with excitonic levels can propose interesting possibilities for the control of directional light scattering in the strong coupling limit, and the dynamic tuning of deep-subwavelength light-matter coupled states by external stimuli.     

Triphenylphosphane Oxide Complexes of Lanthanide Nitrates: Polymorphs and Photophysics

A series of mer‐[Ln(NO₃)₃(Ph₃PO)₃] complexes were prepared from Ln(NO₃)₃ · xH₂O and Ph₃PO in chloroform (Ln = La, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, and Er). The La and Nd complexes were 0.25 CHCl₃ solvates, whereas the others were solvent‐free. The identical reaction using Yb(NO₃)₃ · xH₂O produced the unique salt trans‐[Yb(NO₃)₂(Ph₃PO)₄][Yb(NO₃)₄(Ph₃PO)] · Et₂O. All nitrate ions in all complexes are η²‐chelating. A comparison of the various [Ln(NO₃)₃(Ph₃PO)₃] structures, including those in the literature, reveals at least four common polymorphs, each of which is represented by isomorphic structures of multiple Ln ions. Luminescence of mer‐[Ln(NO₃)₃(Ph₃PO)₃] (Ln = Y, La, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, and Dy), trans‐[Yb(NO₃)₂(Ph₃PO)₄][Yb(NO₃)₄(Ph₃PO)] and Ph₃PO assignments are reported. Latva's empirical rule allows for the antenna effect, in which energy is transferred from the triplet state of the Ph₃PO ligand, to occur only for Tb³⁺. Excitation via Ph₃PO results in strong green luminescence for Tb³⁺ having twice the intensity as that which results from direct excitation of the f‐f transitions.
