Investigation on relation between TL and OSL of Li2B4O7:Cu, In

Polycrystal Li₂B₄O₇ (LBO) doped with Cu and In was prepared and then sintered at different temperatures. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was applied to get the parameters of the LBO structure, thermoluminescence (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) were measured, and a second-order exponential decay model was fitted to the OSL decay curves. The results indicate that the original number of OSL traps that have captured electroncs is linearly related with the sum of TL decay during the OSL process. Mean decay constant of OSL is related to the sintered temperature. The possible reason is that the sintered temperature affects the crystal sizes of the polycrystal, and consequently affects the stimulating lights’s intensity and the photoionization cross-section of the electrons, which have been captured by the traps. __________ Translated from Acta Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis Sunyatseni, 2005, 44(4) (in Chinese)     

Fluorescence Analysis in Microarray Technology

Fluorescence has been the preferred choice for data quantification in biomedical microarray formats since their earliest days. As much as the formats have grown and evolved over the years, the methods in optical analysis have become ever more sophisticated and complex in order to produce more and better output. This review will provide an insight into the most common methods and the state-of-the-art of all areas in microarray fluorescence analysis. Starting with an overview on microarray formats with a focus on their demands on the readout, the most common and useful organic fluorescent stains are discussed before proceeding on to other approaches; the use of semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dots), polymer and silica nanoparticles and fluorescent proteins. Ways to enhance the intrinsically low signal on biochips have become increasingly important as they offer a sound approach towards the detection of low concentration sample content. The three main categories are presented: amplification using DNA, enzymes, and dendrimers. As much diversity as on the microarrays themselves can be found at the detection device. Standard optical microarray detectors, and non-standard methods using fluorescence anisotropy, fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), and their advantages and disadvantages are discussed.     

Effect of the coordination sphere of d<Superscript>0</Superscript> metallocene on triplet-triplet energy transfer

The triplet nature of rare long-lived states of d⁰ metallocenes formed upon ligand-to-metal energy transfer was confirmed by studies of triplet-triplet charge transfer in biscyclopentadienyl complexes Cp₂MCl₂ (M = Zr (1), Hf (2)). The interaction between precatalysts and substrates of catalytic polymerization systems, viz., complexes 1 and 2 and unsaturated hydrocarbons (alkenes and dienes), was studied in the region of concentrations close to catalytic values. For organometallic π-complexes, it has been shown for the first time that, in the case of the unsaturated hydrocarbons, the efficiency of energy transfer obeys the Perrin equation. The process occurs at distances R ₀ close to the diameter of the interacting molecules and is well described by the exchange-resonant mechanism of interaction. In the case of the cyclopentadiene-Cp₂MCl₂ (M = Zr, Hf) systems, R ₀ = 14.6 Å. A linear relationship between the critical radius of the quenching sphere R ₀ and the number of carbon atoms in a linear α-olefin has been revealed for the first time and evidences the formation of a π-complex between the precatalyst and substrate molecules.

Singlet Energy Transfer as the Main Pathway in the Sensitization of Near‐Infrared Nd3+ Luminescence by Dansyl and Lissamine Dyes

In general, sensitization of lanthanide(III ) ions by organic sensitizers is regarded to take place via the triplet state of the sensitizers. Herein, we show that in dansyl‐ and lissamine‐functionalized Nd³⁺ complexes energy transfer occurs from the singlet state of the sensitizers to the Nd³⁺ center. No sensitized emission was observed in the corresponding complexes with Er³⁺, Yb³⁺, and Gd³⁺ ions. Furthermore, the fluorescence of the sensitizers was quenched only in the Nd³⁺ complex and not in the complexes with the other ions. Only Nd³⁺ centers can accept energy from the singlet state of the dyes, because the excited states of Nd³⁺ have a high spectral overlap with the fluorescence of the dansyl and lissamine sensitizers, and because the selection rules allow a fast energy transfer, which apparently is competitive with the fluorescence.     

Positron annihilation studies of poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide) gel in mixed solvents

Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy was used to characterize the reentrant volume‐phase‐transition behavior of poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide) hydrogel in an ethanol/water mixed solvent. The polymer gel was synthesized with γ irradiation. The ortho‐positronium lifetime (τ₃) in the gel slowly increased with an increase in the ethanol content in the mixed solvent. τ₃ was not influenced by the volume phase transition. The ortho‐positronium intensity decreased with the collapse of the gel in an approximately 10% ethanol/water mixture. When swelled in pure ethanol, τ₃ initially increased with the solvent amount in the gel, showing the destruction of intramolecular hydrogen bonding and the relaxation of polymer chains. The lower critical solution temperature of the gel in the 10% ethanol/water mixture was lower than that in pure water, and τ₃ for various solvent contents showed behavior similar to that seen in pure solvent. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
