三维光学断层技术在活体成像中的应用

三维光学断层成像(Three Dimensional Optical Tomography Imaging)是以光学探针标记的分子或细胞为成像源,在外部光源的激发下产生发射光,通过测量组织边界处的光强,结合光子在组织中的传播模型,来重建出组织内部发射光分布图像以及组织光学参数。三维光学断层成像能够提供目标物在生物体内的分布信息,克服平面成像的局限性。因此,在肿瘤检测、基因表达、蛋白质分子检测、揭示机体功能变化等方面有着很大的应用潜力。本文总结了光学相干断层成像(Optical Coherence Tomography,OCT)、荧光分子断层成像(Fluorescent Molecular Tomography,FMT)、生物自发光断层成像(Bioluminescence Tomography,BLT)、切伦科夫荧光断层成像(Cerenkov Luminescence Tomography,CLT)等三维光学断层活体成像技术的新进展,分析了其在实际应用中所面临的技术挑战并探讨了相应的解决方案。     

Direct low-temperature synthesis of ultralong persistent luminescence nanobelts based on a biphasic solution-chemical reaction

The ultralong Zn₂GeO₄:Mn²⁺ persistent luminescence nanobelts (PLNBs) were synthesized using a direct hydrothermal route. The persistent luminescence performance is fine-turned upon prolonging the hydrothermal time and controlling the doping ratio of Mn²⁺. This solid-statereaction-free chemical approach will promote the broad use of these unique nanostructured PLNBs in developing imaging device.     

Ultra‐Narrow‐Band Blue‐Emitting Oxoberyllates AELi2[Be4O6]:Eu2+ (AE=Sr,Ba) Paving the Way to Efficient RGB pc‐LEDs

Highly efficient phosphor‐converted light‐emitting diodes (pc‐LEDs) are popular in lighting and high‐tech electronics applications. The main goals of present LED research are increasing light quality, preserving color point stability and reducing energy consumption. For those purposes excellent phosphors in all spectral regions are required. Here, we report on ultra‐narrow band blue emitting oxoberyllates AELi₂[Be₄O₆]:Eu²⁺ (AE=Sr,Ba) exhibiting a rigid covalent network isotypic to the nitridoalumosilicate BaLi₂[(Al₂Si₂)N₆]:Eu²⁺. The oxoberyllates’ extremely small Stokes shift and unprecedented ultra‐narrow band blue emission with fwhm ≈25 nm (≈1200 cm^?1) at λ_em=454–456 nm result from its rigid, highly condensed tetrahedra network. AELi₂[Be₄O₆]:Eu²⁺ allows for using short‐wavelength blue LEDs (λ_em<440 nm) for efficient excitation of the ultra‐narrow band blue phosphor, for application in violet pumped white RGB phosphor LEDs with improved color point stability, excellent color rendering, and high energy efficiency.     

Tandem Silver Cluster Isomerism and Mixed Linkers to Modulate the Photoluminescence of Cluster‐Assembled Materials

Silver chalcogenolate cluster assembled materials (SCAMs) are a category of promising light‐emitting materials the luminescence of which can be modulated by variation of their building blocks (cluster nodes and organic linkers). The transformation of a singly emissive [Ag₁₂(SBu^t)₈(CF₃COO)₄(bpy)₄]_n (Ag₁₂bpy, bpy=4,4′‐bipyridine) into a dual‐emissive [(Ag₁₂(SBu^t)₆(CF₃COO)₆(bpy)₃)]_n (Ag₁₂bpy‐2) via cluster‐node isomerization, the critical importance of which was highlighted in dictating the photoluminescence properties of SCAMs. Moreover, the newly obtained Ag₁₂bpy‐2 served to construct visual thermochromic Ag₁₂bpy‐2/NH₂ by a mixed‐linker synthesis, together with dichromatic core–shell Ag₁₂bpy‐2@Ag₁₂bpy‐NH₂‐2 via solvent‐assisted linker exchange. This work provides insight into the significance of metal arrangement on physical properties of nanoclusters.     

Dual Upconverted and Downconverted Circularly Polarized Luminescence in Donor–Acceptor Assemblies

Through mimicking both the chiral and energy transfer in an artificial self‐assembled system, not only was chiral transfer realized but also a dual upconverted and downconverted energy transfer system was created that emit circularly polarized luminescence. The individual chiral π‐gelator can self‐assemble into a nanofiber exhibiting supramolecular chirality and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL). In the presence of an achiral sensitizer Pd^II octaethylporphyrin derivative, both chirality transfer from chiral gelator to achiral sensitizer and triplet‐triplet energy transfer from excited sensitizer to chiral gelator could be realized. Upconverted CPL could be observed through a triplet–triplet annihilation photon upconversion (TTA‐UC), while downconverted CPL could be obtained from chirality‐transfer‐induced emission of the achiral sensitizer. The interplay between chiral energy acceptor and achiral sensitizer promoted the communication of chiral and excited energy information.     

Stimulus‐Triggered Formation of an Anion–Cation Exciplex in Copper(I) Complexes as a Mechanism for Mechanochromic Phosphorescence

The investigation of the mechanisms of mechanochromic luminescence is of fundamental importance for the development of materials for photonic sensors, data storage, and luminescence switches. The structural origin of this phenomenon in phosphorescent molecular systems is rarely known and thus the formulation of structure–property relationships remains challenging. Changes in the M–M interactions have been proposed as the main mechanism with d¹⁰ coinage metal compounds. Herein, we describe a new mechanism—a mechanically induced reversible formation of a cation–anion exciplex based on Cu–F interactions—that leads to highly efficient mechanochromic phosphorescence and unusual large emission shifts from UV‐blue to yellow for Cu^I complexes. The low‐energy luminescence is thermo‐ and vaporesponsive, thus allowing the generation of white light as well as for recovering the original UV‐blue emission.     

Lanthanide(III) (Eu,Gd, Tb,Dy) Complexes Derived from 4‐(Pyridin‐2‐yl)methyleneamino‐1,2,4‐triazole: Crystal Structure,Magnetic Properties,and Photoluminescence

The reaction of lanthanide(III) nitrates with 4‐(pyridin‐2‐yl)methyleneamino‐1,2,4‐triazole (L) was studied. The compounds [Ln(NO₃)₃(H₂O)₃] ? 2 L, in which Ln=Eu ( 1 ), Gd ( 2 ), Tb ( 3 ), or Dy ( 4 ), obtained in a mixture of MeCN/EtOH have the same structure, as shown by XRD. In the crystals of these compounds, the mononuclear complex units [Ln(NO₃)₃(H₂O)₃] are linked to L molecules through intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding interactions to form a 2D polymeric supramolecular architecture. An investigation into the optical characteristics of the Eu³⁺‐, Tb³⁺‐, and Dy³⁺‐containing compounds ( 1 , 3 , and 4 ) showed that these complexes displayed metal‐centered luminescence. According to magnetic measurements, compound 4 exhibits single‐ion magnet behavior, with ΔE_eff/k_B=86 K in a field of 1500 Oe.
