This study aimed at influence of europium speciation on its accumulation in Brassica napus (CK) and over-expressing BnTR1 lines (OE), and the kinetics of Eu uptake were investigated. These results indicated that the uptake in the roots of OE was higher than that of CK at high concentrations of europium and even the enrichment in the roots of OE was as high as 20,000 mg/kg at 328.9 μΜ Eu, this suggested that OE might have better resistance to uranium than CK. The time kinetics in plants showed that there had the similar trend between CK and OE. The formation of Eu 3+ at pH 5 in deionized water was beneficial to plants enrichment Eu and carbonate could reduce the adsorption of Eu in two group and phosphate almost completely impress the adsorption of Eu in two group, but citric acid could enhance europium root-to-shoot translocation in two group. These results would help understanding the mechanism of Eu uptake in Brassica napus (CK) and over-expressing BnTR1 lines (OE), therefore properly developing efficient europium/americium phytoremediation.

In this investigation, TpPa-1 were synthesized and exploited for radionuclides ions elimination. According to Langmuir model, at pH 6.5 and 298 K, the maximum adsorption quantity of TpPa-1 were 1194.07 mg(U(VI))/g and 1107.63 mg(Eu(III))/g, respectively. The superior adsorption performance could be attributed to: (i) a great quantity of heteroatom activated sites on the pore wall could conduct as cation receptors; (ii) the forming intramolecular C N … H … O hydrogen bonding in the network of TpPa-1, which was U(VI) and Eu(III) ions adsorption sites; (iii) hydrogen bonding could adjust the electron density of the complex and abate the total charge of radionuclides. The outcomes of this work suggest that TpPa-1 is a promising adsorbent, which is appropriate to enrichment and separation radionuclides from polluted wastewater.

The phase relationships of the ternary system Eu 2 O 3 - La 2 O 3 - ZrO 2 and binary Eu 2 O 3 - La 2 O 3 subsystem were experimentally and thermodynamically studied. Six three-phase fields and nine two-phase ones in the Eu 2 O 3 - La 2 O 3 - ZrO 2 system were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and electron probe microanalysis with wavelength dispersive spectrometer at 1873 K and 1673 K. Nevertheless, there only existed a two-phase region in the Eu 2 O 3 - La 2 O 3 system in the temperature range from 1873 K to 1673 K. After that, the ternary mixing parameters for the system Eu 2 O 3 - La 2 O 3 - ZrO 2 including the binary interaction parameters in the Eu 2 O 3 - La 2 O 3 subsystem are optimized with the CALPHAD (CALculation of PHAse Diagrams) method, based on obtained experimental results. The high-temperature phase relationships and the special type of continuous solid solutions (La 2-x Eu x Zr 2 O 7 ) investigated in present work will contribute to exploring new materials with specific properties such as optical transparency.

In this investigation, the magnetic bio-CaCO 3 were synthesized and elimination of uranium and europium from aqueous solutions. The prepared magnetic composite underwent a series of characterization analyses, such as Transmission electron microscope (TEM), Scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), which prove that the magnetic particles are successfully modified on bio-CaCO 3. Surprisingly, it was found that coating the bio-CaCO 3 with Fe 3 O 4 not only increased the distance between the calcium carbonate nanosheets but also ensured the presence of Fe O active groups on the bio-CaCO 3 surface. The sorption of U(VI)/Eu(III) on the magnetic bio-CaCO 3 as a function of the pH, adsorbent dose, shaking time, co-existing ions, and the temperature was investigated using batch experiments. The effect of pH was investigated showing optimum sorption at pH 5 for U(VI) and Eu(III). The adsorption kinetics is relatively fast and can reach equilibrium in 60 to 90 min, and the pseudo-second-order rate equation preferentially fits the kinetic distribution, suggesting chemisorption was involved. The maximum adsorption amounts were 122.66 mg·g −1 for U(VI) and 130.62 mg·g −1 for Eu(III) at pH 5.0 and 298 K. The adsorption mechanism, which was evaluated with XRD, FTIR, SEM-EDS, and XPS, demonstrated that the functional groups (O H, -NH 2 , CO 3 2− and O Fe) and the increased hierarchical distances were primarily responsible for the improved adsorption ability. This paper highlights magnetic bio-CaCO 3 as potential, eco-friendly and ultrahigh-efficiency materials for uranium and europium pollution cleanup.

A CA-Eu(III) complex was synthesized by the coordination reaction of cellulose acetate (CA) and Eu3+to obtain a CA-Eu light conversion film. This product was then doped with Tb(III) to sensitize the luminescence of Eu3+, which could functionalize the CA film. FTIR and XPS showed that the oxygen atoms in C=O, C–O (O=C–O), and O–H were involved in the complexation with Eu3+and formed a Eu–O bond. SEM revealed that Eu3+filled in the pores of the CA film. By changing the experimental conditions, the best fluorescence performance was obtained at the CA: Eu3+ratio of 3:1 with a reaction time of 65 min. The energy transfer between Tb3+–Eu3+could be realized by doping Tb3+to enhance the luminescence of Eu3+. The best fluorescence performance of the CA-Eu-Tb light conversion film was at a Eu3+:Tb3+ratio of 3:1. Compared with the CA film, the light conversion film has high transparency, high tensile strength, and good flexibility. It can convert the ultraviolet light harmful to plants into red light that is beneficial to photosynthesis. This offers high efficiency and environmental protection in the field of agricultural films.Keywords:light conversion film;cellulose acetate;europium;sensitization

Although two-dimensional transition metal carbides and carbonitrides (MXenes) are becoming increasingly popular in contaminant remediation field, the preparation of MXene nanosheets that can efficiently eliminate the target pollutants still deserves in-depth investigation. Here we produced amidoxime Ti 3 C 2 T x nanosheets (TC-AO), which were efficient radionuclide adsorbents with high stability and positive affinity, by introducing the amidoxime group into the Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene surface through grafting by diazonium salt. The high stability and abundant functional groups of TC-AO were demonstrated by different characterization techniques such as scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Multiple factors affecting the radionuclide removal performance were explored, including reaction time, temperature, pH, ionic strength, anions and cations. The experimental results demonstrated that the radionuclide uptake by TC-AO was a heat-absorbing, spontaneous single-molecule chemisorption process and was consistent with the pseudo-secondary and Langmuir models. When pH < 6, the mechanism of uranium removal was inner complexation, and as the pH continued to increase, uranium removal shifted to outer complexation. Furthermore, the results certificated that TC-AO exhibited fast reaction kinetics (reaching equilibrium in about 20 min), excellent removal efficiency (279.57 mg U·g −1 and 73.99 mg Eu·g −1 ), outstanding selectivity and good stability. The studies showed that TC-AO had good stability and functionality, which was not only valuable for the design of MXene based adsorbents, but also provided a meaningful option for the extraction of radioactive pollutants from wastewater.

The synthesis, Eu 3+ complexation, and selective solvent extraction of Am 3+ over Eu 3+ in nitric acid solution by 2-carboxamido-6-(1 H -pyrazol-3-yl)-pyridines (A-PzPy) ligands were described. Without the aid of any lipophilic anion source, A-PzPy ligands in methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) diluent demonstrated a more favorable affinity of Am 3+ than Eu 3+ at high acidity levels. Slope analysis showed the formation of 1:2 metal/ligand extracted species. The extraction was a spontaneous exothermic process. The analyses of fluorescence titration, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), Raman, time-resolved laser fluorescence spectrum (TRLFS), electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), conductivity and microcalorimetric titration revealed that the composition of complex is [Eu(NO 3 ) 2 (H 2 O)∙2(Et- p -Tol-A-PzPy)](NO 3 ). Combining the results of solvent extraction and complexation study, the extraction mechanism was proposed. Furthermore, the stability constants (log β ) and thermodynamic parameters (Δ H , Δ S , Δ G ) for complexation of Eu 3+ with Et- p -Tol-A-PzPy were also presented.

The metal–organic coordination polymer has emerged as a new family of functional nanomaterials. In this work, we prepared a luminescence coordination polymer based on spontaneous self-assembling of nucleotide (AMP) and Eu3+ ions in aqueous solution. After antenna ligand tetracycline (Tc) was introduced to the coordination polymer (AMP/Eu), a strong europium luminescence was observed due to the intramolecular energy transfer from tetracycline to Eu3+. Because of the hydrophobic environment of the polymer interior, the luminescence intensity of AMP/Eu incorporated tetracycline (AMP/Eu–Tc) was 30 times higher than that of AMP/Eu in a solution containing the same amount of tetracycline. AMP/Eu–Tc displays a long emission lifetime, excellent dispersion, and stability in aqueous solution. The coordination polymers based on antenna ligands possess great potential in the applications of ultrasensitive time-resolved fluorometric assays and biological imaging.

In this paper, Y 3+ ions doped CaMoO 4 :Eu 3+ with controlled microstructures were prepared via a hydrothermal method . All samples were fully characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and photoluminescence measurement. The luminescent performance improvement aroused by doping was systematically investigated after inducing Y 3+ as co-doping ions in CaMoO 4 :Eu 3+ lattice. It is found that the lattice of Y 3+ doped CaMoO 4 :Eu 3+ nanocrystals contracted with increasing the Y 3+ concentration, resulting in a red shift of 1 A 1 → 1 T 1 transition from the valence band to the conduction band. Meanwhile, excitation band at 300 nm corresponding to the typical 1 A 1 → 1 T 1 transition also shifted to lower energy, originating from the charge-transfer between MoO 4 2− group and Eu 3+ ions. When the Y 3+ doping concentration was less than 0.05, the quantum efficiency of Y 3+ doped CaMoO 4 :Eu 3+ nanocrystals was all superior to pure CaMoO 4 :Eu 3+ nanocrystals, which can be assigned to the lattice structure contraction, co-doping effect, doping concentration variation. However, as the content of Y 3+ ions further increasing, Y 3+ ion should act as a luminescence killer, and therefore resulting in a nonradiative de-excitation.

Faujasite (FAU) type zeolite is built from sodalite cages that joined by oxygen bridges between the hexagonal faces, and is characteristic of high cation exchange capacity and thermal stability. In this research, the FAU-NaX zeolite with Na/Si/Al molar ratio of 4.08:1.4:1.0 was prepared with template-free hydrothermal method and then confirmed with XRD analysis , based on which a series of Ag + or/and Eu 3+ loaded zeolites were obtained through the ion-exchange procedure. The PL spectra measurement indicated that after heat treatment at optimized temperatures between 400-600 °C, the Ag + loaded zeolites showed strong green visible emission centered around 540–550 nm, which is due to the formation of Ag 3 n+ clusters. Furthermore, efficient energy transfer from silver-clusters to Eu 3+ can be achieved in the Ag + /Eu 3+ loaded zeolites, and the energy transfer efficiency that evaluated with silver-clusters lifetimes are 23.9%, 44.6%, 67.4% and 73.6%, respectively, in ZX-2Eu30Ag, ZX-5Eu30Ag, ZX-10Eu30Ag and ZX-20Eu30Ag. Besides, the XPS measurements implied that the loading of Eu 3+ resulted in a further reduction of silver-clusters, which can also promote the formation of silver-clusters without heat treatment. This new class of metal-clusters and rare earth (RE) ions co-actived phosphors may offer interesting perspective applications in optoelectronics and lighting.

Three types of carbon dots were synthesized using the same precursor (folic acid and europium nitrate) via different preparation methods (doping and direct coordination). A comprehensive comparison and analysis of the morphology, surface groups, and optical properties of the prepared carbon dots (CD), europium-doped carbon dots (CD-Eu), and europium-functionalized carbon dots (CD@Eu) were conducted. Moreover, due to the higher quantum yield, excellent stability, and outstanding selectivity for UO 2 2+ exhibited by CD-Eu, we selected CD-Eu as the probe for subsequent applications. CD-Eu showed a sensitive response to UO 2 2+ within the concentration range 25 ~ 200 nM, with a detection limit of 0.84 nM (0.42 μg·L −1 ). Additionally, CD-Eu demonstrated excellent accuracy and recovery in spiked detection of real water samples. Furthermore, we discovered that this probe could detect UO 2 2+ both in vitro and in viv o. This strategy provides a promising fluorescent sensor for the detection of UO 2 2+ in water and biological samples, holding significant implications for addressing UO 2 2+ contamination issues.

The present work demonstrates a facile hydrothermal approach to synthesize lanthanide-doped carbon quantum dots (CQDs) with europium and/or gadolinium elements. Taking the advantage of broadband adsorption in the ultraviolet-visible region, the doped QDs are directly used as building blocks for photo-electrochemical (PEC)-type photodetectors (PDs) and their performance is systematically investigated under various conditions. The europium (Eu) and gadolinium (Gd) co-doped (C:EuGd) QDs exhibit better photo-response than the single-elemental doped ones and also show outstanding long-term stability. According to the apparent response to light from 350 to 400 nm, the C:EuGd QDs are demonstrated to hold great potential for narrow-band PDs. This work highlights the practical applications of lanthanide-doped CQDs for PDs, and the results are beneficial for the development of elemental-doped CQDs in general.
