Ce 3+ in CeO 2 , rather than Ce 4+ , is believed to provide assistance to the breaking up of Si O bond during chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) of silica. In the paper, lanthanide metals (La, Nd and Yb) doped CeO 2 nanoparticles were synthesized by modified incipient impregnation method in order to improve the content of Ce 3+ in CeO 2 as polishing. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) experiments and density function theory (DFT) calculation demonstrate this approach could achieve surface doping of CeO 2 nanoparticles, and facilitates the formation of oxygen vacancy and Ce 3+ content. CMP experiments show that the polishing rate and the surface quality of silica wafer are obviously improved by using the doped CeO 2 as abrasive particles. Especially for Nd/CeO 2 , content of Ce 3+ increases from 0.146 to 0.235, the polishing rate of silica is accelerated by 29.6% in alkaline slurries, and a better surface quality (Sa = 9.6 Å) is obtained.

In this paper, uniform rice-shaped lanthanide doped BiPO4 upconversion submicron particles have been successfully synthesized via a facile room-temperature co-precipitation reaction and subsequent calcination route. The morphology, phase transformation and upconversion luminescent properties of synthesized submicron particles (SMPs) were characterized by using different analytical techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC) and upconversion luminescence (UCL) spectra. The transformation from hexagonal phase to monoclinic phase is crucial for upconversion luminescent properties due to the loss of water molecules in the lattice of hexagonal phase. With different variety and concentration of the dopant Ln3+ (Ln = Yb, Er, Tm and Ho) ions, the obtained samples present bright green, blue, and red upconversion emissions under a 980 nm continual wave laser diode excitation. Multicolor and bright white upconversion emissions have also been obtained by precisely adjusting the dopants concentration in the host lattice.

Tunable photoluminescence (PL) has wide applications in optical waveguides and communication. Since the PL intensity is strongly dependent on the crystal field symmetry, curvature-dependent strain-induced PL modulation is expected in flexible antiferroelectric (AFE) thin film materials. Here, flexible Er-doped Pb 0.98 La 0.02 Zr 0.95 Ti 0.05 O 3 (PLZT) AFE thin films were prepared via the sol-gel method. A giant and reversible PL intensity modulation (482%) was achieved during the bending process. Based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations and Raman spectra measurements, the relationship amongst the curvature-dependent strains, crystal structure, and PL modulation was discussed. The induced strain leads to lattice distortion and even a phase transition, both of which contribute to the reduction in crystal symmetry and thus significantly enhance the PL intensity.

Lead halide perovskite quantum dots (QDs) have garnered significant attention due to their tunable band gaps, unique quantum confinement effects, and high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs). Among them, Organic-inorganic QDs make them promising candidates for optoelectronic devices such as quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs), solar cells, lasers, and photodetectors. However, the toxicity of lead (Pb) has raised environmental and health concerns, hindering their industrial application. To alleviate concerns about heavy metals Pb, extensive research has been conducted on B-site doping and the development of lead-free perovskites. Herein, we firstly developed B-site doping strategy on organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite QDs via rare-earth elements. Neodymium (III) (Nd 3+ ) doped FAPbBr 3 QDs were prepared through the ligand-assisted reprecipitation method at room temperature. The B-site doping strategy could alleviate the heavy metal problem of Pb and modulate the band gap of FAPbBr 3 QDs facilely. The results demonstrated that increasing the concentration of Nd³⁺ can change the emission of FAPbBr₃ QDs from pure green to deep blue. Specifically, we achieved highly pure blue emission (∼438 nm) with a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 13 nm for Nd³⁺-doped FAPbBr₃ QDs. Time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) spectroscopy revealed a decrease in the lifetime of FAPbBr₃ QDs from 22.86 to 15.46 ns as the doping concentration increased. Additionally, we fabricated a white LED (WLED) utilizing blue-emitting Nd³⁺-doped FAPbBr₃, green-emitting FAPbBr₃ QDs, and red QDs, achieving a white emission color coordinate of (0.33, 0.36). This study pioneers the application of B-site rare-earth doping in organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite QDs, demonstrating that B-site composition engineering is a reliable strategy to further exploit the perovskite family for wider optoelectronic applications.

With the linewidth of integrated circuits has progressively narrowed, imposing higher demands on the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process. Cerium oxide nanoparticles are widely used as abrasives in CMP, with their physical structure and the surface content of Ce 3+ ions and oxygen vacancies directly affecting their CMP performance. Here in, we synthesized La/Pr/Nd doped CeO 2 with the porous self-assembled spherical structures. Doping with La/Pr/Nd reduced the grain size of cerium oxide, increased its specific surface area, decreased the pore size, and increased the pore volume. HR-TEM analysis shows that the porous self-assembled spherical CeO 2 primarily exposes the (111) crystal facet. Additionally, the density functional theory (DFT) calculation, XPS, H 2 -TPR and XANES analyses shown that doping of La/Pr/Nd facilitated the formation of oxygen vacancies and increased the Ce 3+ content on the (111) crystal facet of the CeO 2 . La atoms are more likely to stabilize on the CeO 2 (111) surface compared to Pr and Nd atoms. The CMP results indicated that, The La-CeO 2 exhibited a higher MRR of 338 ± 7.54 nm/min, which is a 35 % increase compared to p-CeO 2 , and achieved superior surface roughness ( Ra = 0.201 ± 0.010 nm).

In this paper, we report the synthesis of transparent lanthanide-doped NaYF4 phosphors/poly(vinyl alcohol) (UCPs/PVA) nanocomposites with full-color upconversion emission for construction of multicolor luminescent anti-counterfeiting barcode. By deliberate design of water-dispersible
lanthanidedoped NaYF4 upconversion phosphors and precise control of the doped lanthanide ions (dopant pairs and molar ratio), three-primary RGB UCPs with fine red, green and blue upconversion emission were synthesized. The as-prepared three-primary RGB UCPs were incorporated into
poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) matrix at a fixed concentration to balance the transparence and fluorescence intensity of the UCPs/PVA nanocomposite. The combination of emissions from different types of UCPs with selected ratios in PVA matrix was used to prepare UCPs/PVA nanocomposite with various
upconversion emissions. It was demonstrated that the separation distance between UCPs was large enough to suppress inter-particle energy transfer, and thus the emissions of each UCPs were well preserved. This facilitated the fabrication of UCPs/PVA nanocomposite with tunable full-color upconversion
emission based on the trichromatic additive color theory. The relevance of these multicolor UCPs/PVA nanocomposites to barcode materials and application in anti-counterfeiting field were also confirmed.

A facile biomolecule-assisted hydrothermal route followed by calcination has been employed for the preparation of monoclinic yttrium oxysulfate hollow spheres doped with other rare-earth ions (Yb 3+ and Eu 3+ or Er 3+ ). The formation of hollow spheres may involve Ostwald ripening. The resulting hybrid materials were used for upconversion applications. The host crystal structure allows the easy co-doping of two different rare-earth metal ions without significantly changing the host lattice. The luminescent properties were affected by the ratio and concentration of dopant rare-earth metal ions due to energy transfer and the symmetry of the crystal field. The type of luminescent center and the crystallinity of samples were also shown to have a significant influence on the optical properties of the as-prepared products.

Great expectations have been held for the electrochemical splitting of water for producing hydrogen as a significant carbon-neutral technology aimed at solving the global energy crisis and greenhouse gas issues. However, the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) process must be energetically catalyzed over a long period at high output, leading to challenges for efficient and stable processing of electrodes for practical purposes. Here, we first prepared Fe-MOF nanosheet arrays on nickel foam via rare-earth erbium doping (Er0.4Fe-MOF/NF) and applied them as OER electrocatalysts. The Er0.4Fe-MOF/NF exhibited wonderful OER performance and could yield a 100 mA cm−2current density at an overpotential of 248 mV with outstanding long-term electrochemical durability for at least 100 h. At large current densities of 500 and 1000 mA cm−2, overpotentials of only 297 mV and 326 mV were achieved, respectively, revealing its potential in industrial applications. The enhancement was attributed to the synergistic effects of the Fe and Er sites, with Er playing a supporting role in the engineering of the electronic states of the Fe sites to endow them with enhanced OER activity. Such a strategy of engineering the OER activity of Fe-MOF via rare-earth ion doping paves a new avenue to design other MOF catalysts for industrial OER applications.Keywords:rare-earth doping;MOFs;large current;electronic structure

The Gd-, Tb-, and Ho-doped W-type hexagonal ferrite Ba 0.85 RE 0.15 Co 2 Fe 16 O 27 was fabricated by a facile route of low-temperature sol–gel self-propagating combustion. Furthermore, a combination of dielectric loss phase polyaniline and magnetic loss phase Ba 0.85 RE 0.15 Co 2 Fe 16 O 27 as the microwave absorber in a core-shell architecture has been synthesized. The effect of different lanthanide ions Gd, Tb, and Ho on their microstructure, static magnetic properties, electromagnetic properties, and microwave reflection loss have been systematically studied. Our results show that the Ho-doped ferrite has the low microstructure parameters ( a , c , and V ) and high saturation magnetization ( Ms ) attributed to its ionic radius and magnetic moment. Moreover, it was found that the Ho-doped composite exhibited excellent microwave absorbing property with a minimum reflection loss (RL) of about −15.1 dB at 9.4 GHz. The reflection loss of composite increases up to almost triple upon the combination of polyaniline and doped ferrite. Such lightweight and highly effective absorbers via combining the organic and inorganic phase into a core-shell architecture are highly desirable for microwave absorber in various applications.

g-C 3 N 4 and rare earth (RE)-doped (Yb, Nd and Ce) g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets were synthesized by a thermal method. The remarkable effects of RE doping on the structural, morphological, and optical properties of g-C 3 N 4 were investigated using XRD, FT-IR, SEM, BET, XPS, UV–Vis, PL, EIS and Mott–Schottky characterization techniques. The photocatalytic activities of RE doped g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets for different dyes were improved compared with g-C 3 N 4 under visible light irradiation, among which Ce/g-C 3 N 4 showed outstanding performance. Due to the doping of RE, it modulates the electronic structure of pristine g-C 3 N 4 and broadens its optical absorption range. In addition, a possible mechanism of photocatalytic degradation of dyes was propounded by free radical trapping experiments. This work may provide a reference for the rational design of photocatalysts and inspiration for the photocatalytic mechanism.

CaF 2 :Ln 3+ (Ln = Ce, Tb, Eu) phosphors with highly uniform shapes have been successfully synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method directly. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), photoluminescence (PL) and lifetime. The results indicated that the pH values, organic additive and reaction time have a significant effect on the morphology and dimensions of CaF 2 microcrystals and the possible formation mechanism was also proposed. Furthermore, the energy transfer from Ce 3+ to Tb 3+ and from Tb 3+ to Eu 3+ and from Ce 3+ to Tb 3+ to Eu 3+ was observed and the corresponding mechanisms were discussed in detail. The CaF 2 :Ln 3+ phosphors may have potential optical applications in near-UV and violet LEDs.

Upconversion materials have attracted much attention because of their broad application prospects in biomedicine and energy. Although various methods have been tried in nanoparticles and nanocrystals, it is still a challenge to realize monochromatic upconversion luminescence (UCL) in traditional lanthanide-doped materials. Two-dimensional transition metal chalcogenides (2D-TMDs) are a class of excellent luminescent semiconductors, offering a promising platform due to their chemical accessibility and physical sensitivity. However, multi-lanthanide doping, typically boosting the upconversion efficiency, has not been accomplished in monolayer TMD nanosheets. In this work, an optimized liquid precursor-assisted technique is designed to synthesize monolayer MoS2 nanosheets embedded with Er/Yb and Er/Ho by surmounting the precipitation of Ln3+-doped precursors, which is confirmed by structural characterization. The monolayer MoS2 can split the 4f configuration remarkably to produce diverse energy levels due to its strong Coulomb binding and spin–orbit coupling, as well as the unique asymmetric crystal field along the [001] direction. Hence, multiband monochromatic UCL from violet to near-infrared ranges was obtained on these codoped MoS2 nanosheets. This work provides an effective way to tune the luminescence performance and wavelength of 2D-TMD nanosheets as well as a strategy for the design of UCL nanomaterials for light applications as nanophotonic devices.
