Spectroscopic investigations and luminescence spectra of Nd and Dy doped different phosphate glasses

Spectral properties of Nd³⁺ and Dy³⁺ ions in different phosphate glasses were studied and several spectroscopic parameters were reported. Covalency of rare-earth-oxygen bond was studied in these phosphate glass matrices with the variation of modifier in host glass matrix. Using Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters (Ω₂, Ω₄ and Ω₆), radiative transition probabilities (A) and radiative lifetimes (τ_R) of certain excited states of Nd³⁺ and Dy³⁺ ions are estimated in these glass matrices. From the magnitudes of branching ratios (β_R) and integrated absorption cross-sections (Σ), certain transitions of both the ions are identified for laser excitation. From the emission spectra, peak stimulated emission cross-sections (σ_P) are evaluated for the emission transitions observed in all these phosphate glass matrices for both Nd³⁺ and Dy³⁺ ions.     

Development and validation of UPLC method for simultaneous quantification of carvedilol and ivabradine in the presence of degradation products using DoE concept

A methodical design-of-experiments were performed by applying quality-by-design concepts to establish a design-space for simultaneous and rapid quantification of Carvedilol and Ivabradine by UPLC in the presence of degradation products. Response-surface, central-composite design, and quadratic model were employed for statistical assessment of experimental data using the Design-Expert software. Response variables such as resolution and retention time were analyzed statistically for chromatographic screening. During DoE study, various plots such as perturbation, contour, 3D and design-space plots were considered for method optimization. The method was developed using C8 [100?×?2.1?mm, 1.8?µ] UPLC column, mobile phase comprising 0.5% triethylamine buffer [pH 6.4] and acetonitrile in the ratio of 50:50 v/v, the flow rate of 0.4?mL minute^?1 and UV detection at 285?nm for both Carvedilol and Ivabradine. The method was developed with a short run time of two minutes. The method was found to be linear in the range of 25.0–199.9?µg?mL^?1 and 8.9–21.3?µg?mL^?1 for Carvedilol and Ivabradine, respectively with a correlation coefficient of 0.9998 in each case. The recovery values were found in the range of 99.7–100.8% and 98.9–100.9% for Carvedilol and Ivabradine, respectively. The method was validated according to ICH Q2 (R1) guidelines.     

Optical absorption and photoluminescence properties of Er3+ doped mixed alkali borate glasses

An investigations of the optical absorption and fluorescence spectra of 0.2 mol% Er2O3 in mixed alkali borate glasses of the type 67.8B2O3 x xLi2O(32-x)Na2O, 67.8B2O3 x xLi2O(32-x)K2O and 67.8B2O3 x xNa2O(32-x)K2O (where x = 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24) are presented. The glasses were obtained by quenching melts consisting of H3BO3, Li2CO3, Na2CO3, K2CO3 and Er2O3 (950-1100 degrees C, 1.5-2 h) between two brass plates. Spectroscopic parameters like Racah (E1, E2 and E3), spin-orbit (xi(4f)) and configuration interaction (alpha) parameters are deduced as function of x. Using Judd-Ofelt theory, Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters (omega2, omega4 and omega6) are obtained. Radiative and non-radiative transition rates (A(T) and W(MPR)), radiative lifetimes (tauR), branching ratios (beta) and integrated absorption cross-sections (sigma) have been computed for certain excited states of Er3+ in these mixed alkali borate glasses. Emission spectra have been studied for all the three Er3+ doped mixed alkali borate glasses. The present paper throws light on the trends observed in the intensity parameters, radiative lifetimes, branching ratios and emission cross-sections as a function of x in these borate glasses, keeping in view the effect of mixed alkalies in borate glasses.

Spectral Investigations on Ho3+ Doped Mixed Alkali Chloroborate Glasses

The optical absorption and emission spectra of two different Ho³⁺ doped mixed alkali chloroborate glasses have been studied in the ultraviolet-visible near-infrared regions. Various spectroscopic parameters like Racah (E¹, E², and E³), spin orbit (ξ_4f), and configuration interaction (α) parameters have been calculated. From the measured spectral intensities of the various absorption bands of Ho³⁺ ion, the Judd–Ofelt intensity parameters (Ω₂, Ω₄, and Ω₆) have been evaluated and covalency was studied as a function of x in the glass matrices. Using these parameters, radiative transition probabilities, radiative lifetimes, branching ratios, and integrated absorption cross-sections have been calculated and reported for certain excited states of Ho³⁺ ion. From the emission spectra, stimulated emission cross-sections are determined for the emission transitions, ⁵F₄, ⁵S₂?→?⁵I₈, and ⁵F₅?→?⁵I₈ in these two mixed alkali chloroborate glasses. An attempt has been made to throw some light on the environment of Ho³⁺ ions in these glass systems by studying the variation in various spectroscopic parameters.

This article presents the optical absorption and emission properties of Pr³⁺ and Er³⁺ in mixed alkali borate glasses of the type 68B₂O₃·xLi₂O·(32-x)Cs₂O (where x=8, 12, 16, 20 and 24). The variation of Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters (Ω_λ), the peak wavelength of the hypersensitive transitions, radiative transition probabilities (A_rad) and peak emission cross-sections (σ_p) with x in the glass matrix have been discussed in detail. The changes in position of hypersensitive transition and intensity parameters with x are correlated to the structural changes in the host matrix. The estimated radiative lifetimes (τ_R) of certain excited states of both Pr³⁺ and Er³⁺ in lithium cesium mixed alkali borate glasses are reported. Branching ratios (β) and integrated absorption cross-sections (Σ) for certain important transitions are presented. Peak stimulated emission cross-sections (σ_p) are calculated for the observed emission peaks of Pr³⁺ and Er³⁺ ions in this glass matrix.     

Enhanced electrical properties of polyethylene oxide (PEO) + polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP):Li<Superscript>+</Superscript> blended polymer electrolyte films with addition of Ag nanofiller

Polymer blended films of polyethylene oxide (PEO)?+?polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP):lithium perchlorate (LiClO₄) embedded with silver (Ag) nanofiller in different concentrations have been synthesized by a solution casting method. The semi-crystalline nature of these polymer films has been confirmed from their X-ray diffraction (XRD) profiles. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Raman analysis confirmed the complex formation of the polymer with dopant ions. Dispersed Ag nanofiller size evaluation study has been done using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis. It was observed that the conductivity increases when increasing the Ag nanofiller concentration. On the addition of Ag nanofiller to the polyethylene oxide (PEO)?+?polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP):Li⁺ electrolyte system, it was found to result in the enhancement of ionic conductivity. The maximum ionic conductivity has been set up to be 1.14?×?10^?5 S cm^?1 at the optimized concentration of 4 wt% Ag nanofiller-embedded (45 wt%) polyethylene oxide (PEO)?+?(45 wt%) polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP):(10 wt%) Li⁺ polymer electrolyte nanocomposite at room temperature. Polyethylene oxide (PEO)?+?polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP):Li⁺ +Ag nanofiller (4 wt%) cell exhibited better performance in terms of cell parameters. This is ascribed to the presence of flexible matrix and high ionic conductivity. The applicability of the present 4 wt% Ag nanofiller-dispersed polyethylene oxide (PEO)?+?polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP):Li⁺ polymer electrolyte system could be suggested as a potential candidate for solid-state battery applications. Dielectric constants and dielectric loss behaviours have been studied.     

Quality-by-design-based development and validation of a stability-indicating UPLC method for quantification of teriflunomide in the presence of degradation products and its application to in-vitro dissolution

A systematic design-of-experiments was performed by applying quality-by-design concepts to determine design space for rapid quantification of teriflunomide by the ultraperformance liquid chromatography (UPLC) method in the presence of degradation products. Response surface and central composite quadratic were used for statistical evaluation of experimental data using a Design-Expert software. The response variables such as resolution, retention time, and peak tailing were analyzed statistically for the screening of suitable chromatographic conditions. During this process, various plots such as perturbation, contour, 3D, and design space were studied. The method was developed through UPLC BEH C18 2.1?×?100?mm, 1.7-µ column, mobile phase comprised of buffer (5?mM K₂HPO₄ containing 0.1% triethylamine, pH 6.8), and acetonitrile (40:60 v/v), the flow rate of 0.5?mL?min^?1 and UV detection at 250?nm. The method was developed with a short run time of 1?min. Forced degradation studies revealed that the method was stability-indicating, suitable for both assay and in-vitro dissolution of a drug product. The method was found to be linear in the range of 28–84?µg?mL^?1, 2.8–22.7?µg?mL^?1 with a correlation coefficient of 0.9999 and 1.000 for assay and dissolution, respectively. The recovery values were found in the range of 100.1–101.7%. The method was validated according to ICH guidelines.
