KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :Ln 3+ (Ln = Ce, Sm, Eu, Tb, Dy, Dy/Eu, Yb/Ho, Yb/Er, Yb/Tm) phosphors were synthesized by high temperature solid state method. Doping the KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 matrix with 5%Dy 3+ ions resulted in white light emission under 345 nm excitation. The calculated color temperature (CCT) of this white light is 5523 K, indicating as positive white light. It was found that the luminous intensity of the obtained KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :5%Dy 3+ at 200 °C was 76.80 % of that at room temperature, showing good thermal stability as well as possibility of application in white LED. Under the excitation at 392 nm, the fluorescence quantum yield of KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :10%Eu 3+ is 79.92 %. Energy transfer between Dy 3+ and Eu 3+ is observed in KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :Dy 3+ /Eu 3+ samples, with identified mechanism as the quadrupole-quadrupole interaction. Tunable luminescence ranging from white to yellow then to orange-red is achieved by adjusting the doping concentration of Eu 3+ in KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :5%Dy 3+ , x%Eu 3+ . Under the excitation of 980 nm near-infrared light, the prepared KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :Yb 3+ /Ho 3+ , KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ and KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :Yb 3+ /Tm 3+ samples showed up-conversion emissions of red, yellow and blue, respectively, with two-photon processes. In KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 matrix, multi-color and multi-security marks were successfully prepared by utilizing up/down conversion luminescence characteristics, which obtained good anti-counterfeiting effect and improved anti-counterfeiting security. Therefore, the obtained KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 : Ln 3+ phosphors exhibit promising application prospects in the fields of WLED and multiple anti-counterfeiting.

The integration of self-healing ability into luminescent switches have attracted increasing interest in designing smart optical devices. In this paper, an acid-base vapor modulated luminescent switch of hydrogels based on Eu-containing polyoxometalate (EuPOM) and poly(2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonicacid) (PAMPSA) was readily prepared, which can self-heal within only about few minutes under ambient atmosphere. Besides, the hydrogels can easily be shaped into any desired form by pouring into molds. These remarkable features enable the resulting hydrogel as a promising “smart” material with use in smart devices, sensors, etc.

Rare earth orthocobaltates nanofibers (PrCoO 3 , EuCoO 3 , and GdCoO 3 ) were prepared by a simple electrospinning method coupled with calcination. The PrCoO 3 , EuCoO 3 , and GdCoO 3 nanofibers have orthorhombic perovskite structure. The fabricated electrodes presented the typical pseudocapacitive characteristics, which originated from the reversible redox reactions of Co 2+ /Co 3+ and Fe(CN) 6 3− /Fe(CN) 6 4− . At 1 A g −1 , the specific capacitances of the PrCoO 3 , EuCoO 3 , and GdCoO 3 nanofibers were 119, 133, and 196 F g −1 , respectively. The electrochemical characteristics of the PrCoO 3 , EuCoO 3 , and GdCoO 3 nanofibers exhibited favorable specific capacitance, good long-term cycling stability, and high coulombic efficiency, proving the possible application into energy storage devices. PrCoO 3 and EuCoO 3 nanofibers exhibited a magnetic state transition from paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic state. GdCoO 3 nanofibers showed a paramagnetic ordering at high temperature. The cooperation of the R 3+ ions and the Co 2+ ions contributed to the magnetism of rare earth orthocobaltates nanofibers. The antiferromagnetic behaviors of the fabricated samples confirm the potential application into spin-electronic devices.

Herein, a novel fluorescent indicator for the real-time monitoring of amines is described. This probe contains a complex of europium-(thenoyltrifluoroacetone) 3 (Eu(TTA) 3 ) that efficiently reacts with primary and secondary amines. The electron-withdrawing trifluoroacetyl undergoes a nucleophilic addition with amines, and the complex was used to selectively detect BuNH 2 and Et 2 NH (quenching concentration for BuNH 2 : 10 −4 m , for Et 2 NH: 1.2 × 10 −3 m ) by monitoring emission; no changes were observed in the emission spectrum of Eu(TTA) 3 in the presence of Et 3 N, [Bu 4 N]Cl, or PhNH 2 in aqueous solution (THF/H 2 O = 1:1). The ratio of emission intensity to amine concentration was linear by the least-squares fitting method.

Herein, a novel europium/graphene oxide/lead oxide (Eu/GO/PbO 2 ) composite based anode with excellent electrocatalytic performance towards degradation of hydroquinone was prepared by a facile co-electrodeposition method. The composition and micromorphology of the anode was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and the results confirmed that europium (Eu) and graphene oxide (GO) were successfully composited with PbO 2 and a more compact structure was obtained, which was conductive to enhancing the corrosion resistance of the electrode. Besides, electrochemical measurements indicated that Eu/GO/PbO 2 electrode possessed longer service lifetime (87 h), higher oxygen evolution potential (2.64 V), and lower charge transfer resistance (41.08 Ω) than GO/PbO 2 and pure PbO 2 electrode. The promoted electrocatalytic activity of Eu/GO/PbO 2 electrode was ascribed to its stronger hydroxyl radical generation ability, more active sites and lower electron transfer resistance. Additionally, effects of initial hydroquinone concentration, applied current density and initial pH value on the degradation performance of Eu/GO/PbO 2 anode were systematically investigated. The behind degradation mechanism of hydroquinone by Eu/GO/PbO 2 anode was speculated on the basis of the major intermediates identified by high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer (HPLC-MS). Under the continuous attack of free hydroxyl radicals, hydroquinone was finally decontaminated into CO 2 and H 2 O. The present work demonstrated that Eu/GO/PbO 2 composite anode exhibited excellent degradation performance towards hydroquinone.

Low-dimensional hybrid metal halides have recently gained prominence as next-generation luminescent materials owing to their structural tunability, abundant spectral characters and unique emission mechanisms. Herein, we designed and synthesized three emerging zero-dimensional rare-earth Eu(II)-based hybrid bromides with cyan emission originated from 5d-4f transition of Eu(II). Their photoluminescence quantum yields (PLYQs) are enhanced by molecular-dimensionality-engineering, and the optimized (Me 4 P)EuBr 3 (Me 4 P = tetramethylphosphonium) with a high PLQY of 96.1% shows a narrow emission band peaking at 495 nm with a full width at half maxima of 45 nm upon 390 nm excitation. The as-fabricated white light-emitting diodes (WLED) device based on (Me 4 P)EuBr 3 , commercial K 2 SiF 6 :Mn 4+ and YAG:Ce 3+ , and a 460 nm blue GaN chip achieves a high color rendering index of 92.2. This work not only establishes the structural design and innovation of a new family of hybrid rare-earth halides for efficient photoluminescence, but also provides new phosphor materials for full-spectrum WLED.

Efficient and selective sensing of lanthanides are crucial for identifying valuable lanthanide streams and designing effective extraction/masking agents for mining and nuclear waste management. Luminescence-based sensing often struggles with interference from water molecules. Common approaches to improve emissive lanthanide complexes in water involve increasing ligand lipophilicity and enclosing the emitting metal center. Herein, we have demonstrated that lipophilic ligands do not always lead to higher emissions. When strong coordinating groups are involved in the ligand, the complex may adapt special architecture to compensate the hydrophilic nature of the ligand by creating lipophilic microenvironment and lead to higher emissions. Our findings highlight the importance of the overall lipophilicity of both the ligand and the final complex, which could serve as important reference for future design of efficient lanthanide sensing and emissive complexes.

Tetracycline detection remains an important research topic in the bioenvironmental field today. This paper reports a novel amphiphilic Eu(III) complex DO 3 AC 12 -Eu for single signal and ratiometric fluorescence detection of tetracycline (TC) in aqueous solution. DO 3 AC 12 -Eu can self-assemble micelle-like nano-aggregation in aqueous solution with no fluorescence. After addition of TC, the Eu(III)-based emission was observed for the effective antenna effect from TC to Eu(III) center. In addition, DO 3 AC 12 -Eu can load 4-methylumbelliferone sodium (MU) as a fluorescence reference to form DO 3 AC 12 -Eu/MU co-assembly nano-aggregation with a blue emission at 450 nm. Based on the TC-induced antenna effect and inner filter effect mechanism between TC and MU, DO 3 AC 12 -Eu/MU exhibits a ratiometrically fluorescent response toward TC, with increasing Eu(III)-based emission at 615 nm, and decreasing MU-based emission at 450 nm. Importantly, DO 3 AC 12 -Eu/MU exhibits superior sensitivity and selectivity over DO 3 AC 12 -Eu . The detection limit of DO 3 AC 12 -Eu/MU toward TC is 0.82 nM, far lower than that of DO 3 AC 12 -Eu (9.5 nM). Furthermore, DO 3 AC 12 -Eu/MU assembly has been successfully used for on-site and real-time detection of TC in food samples by using the smartphone-based visualization method and test gel.

In order to expand the application of biobased polycarbonate in optical components, a series of isosorbide polycarbonate (PICC)/rare earth ion complex fluorescent composites were prepared by using PICC as a macromolecular ligand and Eu 3+ and Tb 3+ as rare earth luminescence centers. The coordination system between rare earth ions and PICC was investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, DSC and TGA. On adjusting the ratio of Eu 3+ and Tb 3+ , a PICC/rare earth ion composite with adjustable fluorescence color was obtained. Also, the thermal, mechanical and optical properties of a series of PICC/rare earth ion fluorescent films with different ratios were tested. A transparent fluorescent composite material with excellent mechanical properties and tunable fluorescent colors has been prepared. © 2024 Society of Industrial Chemistry.

Bacillus anthracisis a Gram-positive bacterium that can cause acute infection and anthracnose, which is a serious concern for human health. DeterminingBacillus anthracisthrough its spore biomarker dipicolinic acid (DPA) is crucial, and there is a strong need for a method that is rapid, sensitive, and selective. Here, we created Eu(III)-coordination polymers (Eu-CPs) with surfaces that have abundant carboxyl and hydroxyl groups. This was achieved by using citric acid and europium nitrate hexahydrate as precursors in a straightforward one-pot hydrothermal process. These Eu-CPs were then successfully utilized for highly sensitive DPA determination. The fluorescence (FL) emission of Eu-CPs, which is typically weak due to the coordination of Eu(III) with water molecules, was significantly enhanced in the presence of DPA. This enhancement is attributed to the competitive binding between DPA’s carboxyl or hydroxyl groups and water molecules. As a result, the absorbed energy of DPA, when excited by 280 nm ultraviolet light, is transferred to Eu-CPs through an antenna effect. This leads to the emission of the characteristic red fluorescence of Eu3+at 618 nm. A strong linear relationship was observed between the enhanced FL intensity and DPA concentration in the range of 0.5–80 μM. This relationship allowed for a limit of detection (LOD) of 15.23 nM. Furthermore, the Eu-CPs we constructed can effectively monitor the release of DPA from Bacillus subtilis spores, thereby further demonstrating the potential significance of this strategy in the monitoring and management of anthrax risk. This highlights the novelty of this approach in practical applications, provides a valuable determination technique for Bacillus anthracis, and offers insights into the development cycle of microorganisms.

Mechanoluminescent (ML) materials hold significant potential for applications in visual stress and temperature sensing. However, most studied ML materials are largely limited to trap-controlled types, which necessitate prior optical excitation for activation and require continuous optical stimulation to maintain luminescent intensity. This dependency significantly restricts their performance in practical applications. In this study, we developed self-recoverable CGO:Eu³⁺ red-emitting ML powders and combined them with green-emitting ZnS:Cu ML powders in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to facilitate visualized stress and temperature sensing. The ML intensity of CGO:Eu³⁺ and ZnS:Cu demonstrates distinct trends at varying strains; thus, the CGO:Eu³⁺-ZnS:Cu composite elastomer with a CGO:Eu³⁺ to ZnS:Cu ratio (CtZ ratio) of 4:1 exhibits the most significant ML color change in response to strain variations. Additionally, the notable difference in thermal quenching performance between CGO:Eu³⁺ and ZnS:Cu powders enables the composite elastomer with a CtZ ratio of 2:1 to differentiate temperature based on changes in ML color, achieving a maximum relative sensitivity ( S r) of 2.2 % K⁻¹ at 200 °C. The composite elastomers produced exhibited ML color changes that are easily perceptible to the human eye in response to varying stress and temperature conditions, thereby making them suitable for applications in intelligent gesture recognition and temperature detection.
