水热合成六方相NaYbF4∶Er3+/Tm3+的上转换白光性质

在反应温度为220℃,反应时间为48h的温和条件下,利用水热法合成单掺杂或共掺杂Tm3 、Er3 的六方相NaYbF4体系,利用X射线粉末衍射、紫外-可见-近红外漫反射吸收光谱以及荧光光谱等测试手段,分析体系的物相结构和荧光性能。在980nm红外激光的激发下,NaYbF4∶Er3 体系能发出强的绿光和红光,两者分别对应于Er3 离子的(2H11/2,4S3/2)→4I15/2、4F9/2→4I15/2能级跃迁;NaYbF4∶Tm3 体系能发出对应于Tm3 离子1D2→3F4和1G4→3H6能级跃迁的强蓝光;而NaYbF4∶Er3 /Tm3 体系能同时发出红蓝绿三种颜色的光;各发射的归属与单掺杂相同,但由于Er3 和Tm3 离子之间存在能量交叉弛豫,致使各发光强度发生变化。通过控制Er3 和Tm3 离子的浓度及其比例,可以调整NaYbF4∶Er3 /Tm3 体系的上转换蓝光、绿光和红光强度的比例,结果表明,在980nm红外激光的激发下,NaYbF4∶Er3 /Tm3 (0.4%/0.4%)能发出近似白光的上转换发射。因此,NaYbF4∶Er3 /Tm3 有望成为单一基质的上转换白光材料。     

A PEGylated Fluorescent Turn‐On Sensor for Detecting Fluoride Ions in Totally Aqueous Media and Its Imaging in Live Cells

Owing to the considerable significance of fluoride anions for health and environmental issues, it is of great importance to develop methods that can rapidly, sensitively and selectively detect the fluoride anion in aqueous media and biological samples. Herein, we demonstrate a robust fluorescent turn‐on sensor for detecting the fluoride ion in a totally aqueous solution. In this study, a biocompatible hydrophilic polymer poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is incorporated into the sensing system to ensure water solubility and to enhance biocompatibility. tert‐Butyldiphenylsilyl (TBDPS) groups were then covalently introduced onto the fluorescein moiety, which effectively quenched the fluorescence of the sensor. Upon addition of fluoride ion, the selective fluoride‐mediated cleavage of the Si? O bond leads to the recovery of the fluorescein moiety, resulting in a dramatic increase in fluorescence intensity under visible light excitation. The sensor is responsive and highly selective for the fluoride anion over other common anions; it also exhibits a very low detection limit of 19 ppb. In addition, this sensor is operative in some real samples such as running water, urine, and serum and can accurately detect fluoride ions in these samples. The cytotoxicity of the sensor was determined to be Grade I toxicity according to United States Pharmacopoeia and ISO 10993‐5, suggesting the very low cytotoxicity of the sensor. Moreover, it was found that the senor could be readily internalized by both HeLa and L929 cells and the sensor could be utilized to track fluoride level changes inside the cells.     

Electrogenerated acetonitrile anions/tetrabutylammonium cations: an effective catalytic system for the synthesis of novel chromeno[3′,4′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidines

An efficient and convenient synthesis of novel chromeno[3′,4′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidines is described, using the electrogenerated anion of acetonitrile as the base in the presence of tetrabutylammonium fluoride as an effective supporting electrolyte in a one-pot, three-component condensation of barbituric acid, an aromatic aldehyde or isatin, and 4-hydroxycoumarin. The reaction is carried out in an undivided cell containing an iron electrode as the cathode and a Pt electrode as the anode, at a constant current at room temperature.

Synthesis of Organosilyl-Functionalized Cage-Type Germanoxanes Containing Fluoride Ions

Eight corners of a double-four ring cage-type germanoxane, containing a fluoride ion, were successfully silylated by the combination of chlorosilanes and silazanes. Three different silyl groups, trimethylsilyl, dimethylsilyl, and dimethylvinylsilyl, were attached on the corners of germanoxane cage. The solubility and reactivity of the cage modified with dimethylvinylsilyl groups were significantly increased, allowing for further reaction. Hydrosilylation reaction between dimethylvinylsilylated cage geramanoxanes and dimethylsilylated cage siloxanes afforded porous solids. Functionalization of the corners of germanoxanes with silyl groups should provide valuable building blocks in various functional materials.     

Improving waterproof/breathable performance of electrospun poly(vinylidene fluoride) fibrous membranes by thermo‐pressing

Facing the ever‐increasing demand for waterproof/breathable materials, a rapid and efficient fabrication method of these functional materials with excellent performance as well as robust mechanical properties remains challenging. Herein, a simple and scalable strategy referred to as thermo‐pressing is introduced to improve the waterproof/breathable performance and mechanical properties of electrospun PVDF fibrous membranes. The synergistic effect of temperature and pressure acted on the electrospun PVDF membranes on the fiber morphology and crystal structure was investigated, which can be able to effectively enhance waterproof performance and mechanical properties, endowing the as‐prepared membranes with a modest breathability. The membranes thermo‐pressed at 150 °C with a pressure of 8.27 MPa exhibit robust tensile strength of 40.65 MPa, which is superior to those of the previous reports (below 32.8 MPa). Notably, the optimized membranes enable to show a high hydrostatic pressure of 102 kPa, good WVTR of 10.87 kg m⁻² d⁻¹ and excellent abrasion resistance, which implies that the thermo‐pressing is an efficient and facile way to steer the fiber morphology and crystal structure of electrospun membranes to improve their application performance. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Spectroscopy of Laser Plumes for Atto‐Mole and ng/g Elemental Analysis

Abstract

Two all‐optical analytical techniques are reviewed. Both are capable of highly sensitive multi‐element analysis. One is by means of resonance‐enhanced plasma spectroscopy. It minimizes the continuum background associated with laser‐induced plasmas. Relative to laser‐induced breakdown spectroscopy, the signal‐to‐noise ratio is improved by orders of magnitude, thus allowing the quantitation of sodium and potassium at the single blood cell level. The other technique utilizes laser‐excited atomic fluorescence. It has been traditionally handicapped by its one wavelength–one transition specificity. We showed, however, that numerous elements could be induced to fluoresce at a single excitation wavelength of 193 nm provided that the analytes were imbedded in dense plumes, such as those produced by pulsed laser ablation. This method eliminates the continuum plasma background and sub‐ppb sensitivity was demonstrated in the analysis of aqueous lead colloids.     

BaSnF4 fast ion conductor: Variations versus the method of preparation and anomalous temperature variation of the quadrupole splitting

A new method of preparation of high performance fluoride ion conductor, BaSnF₄, by water leaching of newly discovered barium tin(II) chloride fluorides, has been designed, and the materials have been studied and compared to the solid prepared by the usual dry method. The unit-cell parameters and crystallite dimensions were found to vary with the method of preparation. In addition, the crystallite dimensions were found to be highly anisotropic for the samples obtained by the wet method. The Mössbauer spectrum is made of a large tin(II) quadrupole doublet, and a broad tin(IV) oxide peak due to surface oxidation. The tin(II) spectrum is in agreement with covalently bonded tin(II) having a strongly stereoactive lone pair. An unusually high dependence of the quadrupole splitting at low temperatures was observed (5.8 times larger than for α-SnF₂).     

Crystal Growth and Crystal Structures of Gold(V) Compounds: Cu(AuF6)2, Ag(AuF6)2, and O2(CuF)3(AuF6)4 ⋅ HF

Crystal growth from anhydrous hydrogen fluoride solutions of M²⁺ (M=Cu, Ag) and [AuF₆]⁻ gave M(AuF₆)₂ salts (M=Cu, Ag). Similar attempts to prepare single crystals of the corresponding nickel, zinc and magnesium salts failed. The crystal structure of Cu(AuF₆)₂ consists of layers of Cu²⁺ cations connected by [AuF₆]⁻ anions, thus forming slabs. Only van der Waals interactions exist between adjacent slabs. The crystal structure of Ag(AuF₆)₂ consists of a three-dimensional framework in which Ag⁺ cations are linked by [AuF₆]⁻ anions. Both structures are members of the M^II(X^VF₆)₂ family, in which seven different structure types have been observed to date. In the crystal structure of O₂(CuF)₃(AuF₆)₄ ⋅ HF, the bridging AuF₆ units connect [−Cu−F−Cu−F−]_∞ chains to form stacks between which O₂⁺ cations and HF molecules are located.
