Seeking novel and effective approaches to synergistically improve the electrical and thermal transport properties and electro-thermal conversion efficiency of Bi 2 Te 3 -based alloys is essential for commercial applications. Here, GdCo 2 /Bi 0.37 Sb 1.63 Te 3 thermoelectric nanocomposites were designed and synthesized to achieve synergistic improvement of electrical and thermal properties . As confirmed by magnetoresistance measurement, the built-in magnetic field and magnetic scattering generated by magnetic nanoparticles decrease the carrier concentration and mobility, and increase the Seebeck coefficient . Meanwhile, GdCo 2 nanoparticles lead to broad-frequency phonon scattering, which effectively reduces the lattice thermal conductivity of nanocomposites. Eventually, the average ZT of the nanocomposite is increased by 18% in the range of 300–500 K, and the cooling temperature difference is increased by 68% near room temperature. This work proves that the thermoelectromagnetic coupling effects generated by magnetic particles can effectively improve the electro-thermal conversion performance.

Development of high-quality ferrites behaved enhanced properties via inclusion of ions in 3d n and 4f n series are desirable for efficient power conversion solid-state devices. Nevertheless, inadequate microscopic behaviors with complex chemistry in materials enables researchers to design and produce the macroscopic target device that remained rudimentary and mindless. In this work, the microscopic properties in nickel-zinc spinel ferrite series of Ni 0.8 Zn 0.2 Sm x Fe 2- x O 4 ( x = 0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08) encompassing XRD, SEM, EDS, VSM, FTIR and ESR were systemically characterized, and the evolutionary mechanism of the corresponding structural, micro-structure, elemental composition and distribution, magnetic, cations exchange, and micro-magnetic behavior was profoundly revealed. Under microscopic examinations, the optimum composition at x = 0.02 with well-arranged spinel structure, dense texture with expected elemental composition, favorable soft magnetic properties and micro-magnetic behaviors is evident. Fortunately, this optimum is in coincidence with the achievable maximum magneto-mechanical coefficient, even the macroscopic electric properties with stronger magnetoelectric (ME) interactions and higher power conversion efficiency (PE) in tri-layered ME samples as expected. Experimental results show that the eventual PE reaches its maximum of 75.67 % under R opt = 33kΩ for samples at x = 0.02, and exhibit a 2.24 times higher PE than that of sample without samarium substitution. These findings provide a holographic perspective to connect the microscopic beneficial effects of materials to bulk device that are promising for efficient power conversion solid-state electronics.

In contrast to well-known multiple and fixed upconversion (UC) emission bands from lanthanide (Ln 3+ ) ions activated luminescent materials, room temperature wavelength-tunable single-band UC emissions are designed and demonstrated in Ln 3+ ions/transition metal Yb 3+ /Mn 2+ codoped fluoride perovskites ABF 3 (A = K + , Rb + , and Cs + ; B = Mg 2+ , Zn 2+ , and Cd 2+ ). Upon 976 nm laser excitation, the perovskites ABF 3 :Yb 3+ , Mn 2+ exhibit intense single band UC emission centered at 550–610 nm depending on the substitution of the A + and / or the B 2+ species in ABF 3 . Crystal structure and luminescent properties analysis show that the UC emission should originate from the transitions of super-exchange coupled Yb 3+ –Mn 2+ pair. The Stokes and UC emission properties, UC luminescence decay behaviors, as well as temperature dependent UC emission properties of ABF 3 :Yb 3+ , Mn 2+ are investigated and discussed in detail. The intense room (or high) temperature UC emission and ultralong UC decay lifetimes (≈25–45 ms) clearly reveal that the perovskites ABF 3 :Yb 3+ , Mn 2+ can be potentially applied in the fields of time-resolved luminescence imaging, lighting, and solid state lasers.

Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 nanocrystals with different content of dopant were successfully prepared via a facile hydrothermal method. The purity, morphology, element distribution, chemical state and up-conversion (UC) photoluminescence (PL) of PbTiO 3 nanocrystals affected by Ho 3+ dopant are investigated systematically. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results illustrate that PbTiO 3 samples with the doping Ho 3+ concentration ranging from 0 to 5 mol-% are perovskite structure. The doping Ho 3+ ions have no change on the crystal structure of perovskite PbTiO 3 . Owing to the non-equivalent substitution of Ho 3+ to Ti 4+ in PbTiO 3 , the particle size of Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 samples is decreased as well as the particle agglomeration is detected. Moreover, Ho and Yb ions have uniform distributions in the PbTiO 3 nanoparticles as the presence of Ho 3+ and Yb 3+ cations. The up-conversion spectra demonstrate that Ho/Yb co-doped PbTiO 3 samples have up-conversion emissions centered at 550 nm, 660 nm and 755 nm, corresponding to the transitions of 5 F 4 ( 5 S 2 )→ 5 I 8 , 5 F 5 → 5 I 8 and 5 S 2 ( 5 F 4 )→ 5 I 7 of Ho 3+ ions. Additionally, the effect of temperature on the UC PL property of Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 system is further investigated. The sensitivity and the trend of Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 samples in temperature from 298 k to 493K are calculated on the basis of fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) method. Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 nanocrystals are verified the high potential in the optical temperature sensing.

ZnO:Yb3+,Tm3+,Ga3+ up-conversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) with sizes of between 20 and 65 nm are synthesized by the hydrothermal method. The size of the nanocrystals is affected by different Ga3+ concentrations. The variation in size has influence on the particles' visible blue and red up-conversion (UC) emission. In this paper, X-ray powder diffraction results show different amounts of gallium substituting for Zn in the ZnO lattice. When the concentration of Ga3+ is 3 mol%, the resulting UCNPs exhibit strong UC emission, longer fluorescence lifetime and narrower band gap. Due to their adjustable size and UC fluorescence properties, ZnO:Yb3+,Tm3+,Ga3+ nanocrystals have broad prospects for future applications in the biomedical field.

The novel hierarchical compact layer involving ZnO and TiO 2 blocking films is used to improve the overall performance of dye-sensitized solar cells. The ZnO compact films are fabricated as a bottom layer to block the electrons injection to the conductive glass and improve the open-circuit voltage. The TiO 2 compact layer is employed to suppress back electron transfer and avoid ZnO contacting the acid dyes directly. The short-circuit current density of the DSSC containing the hierarchical compact layer is improved by 30% compared to that of one with only ZnO as the compact layer. The open-circuit voltage is increased by 4% after introducing the additional TiO 2 blocking layer between the ZnO compact layer and mesoporous TiO 2 layer. Overall, the short-circuit current density, open-circuit voltage and solar energy conversion efficiency are enhanced by 15.3%, 3.7% and 29.6%, respectively, relative to the traditional DSSC without any blocking layers. The ZnO–TiO 2 blocking layer has been characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy , open-circuit voltage decay and dark current measurement to reveal the mechanism of short-circuit current density and open-circuit voltage improvement.

In this work, tungstate BaWO 4 phosphors doped Ho 3+ -Yb 3+ -Gd 3+ ions are successfully synthesized through solid-state reaction method. Under the excitation of a 980 nm laser, the up-conversion (UC) luminescence properties are investigated simultaneously. The blue (465 nm, 489 nm), green (541 nm) and red (665 nm) emission intensities of BaWO 4 : Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ /Gd 3+ samples are dramatically enhanced by 20.59, 9.83, 7.37, and 27.59 times more than those without Gd 3+ ions. The possible reason is discussed, which attributes to the energy transfer efficiency enhancement from Yb 3+ to Ho 3+ due to the lattice expansion induced by Gd 3+ ions. The temperature-sensing properties of BaWO 4 : Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ /Gd 3+ samples are also discussed based on the fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) technology. The sensitivity of temperature measurement for BaWO 4 : Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ /Gd 3+ sample is higher than that of BaWO 4 : Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ . It proves that the codoped Gd 3+ ions can also increase the temperature sensitivity because the higher UC emission efficiency will lead to a high signal-to-noise ratio. The result provides an effective way to design UC luminescence materials with high temperature sensing properties.

Novel efficient visible and near-infrared emitting phosphors NaY(MoO 4 ) 2 (NYM):Ln 3+ (Ln = Ce and Yb) were proposed in this work. The crystal structure, lattice vibration characteristics, morphology, and luminescent properties of NaY(MoO 4 ) 2 phosphors were described. Sensitization of Ln 3+ from the host with various doping concentrations was investigated. The yellow-green emission was achieved in Ce 3+ single-doped NYM phosphors at UV ultraviolet excitation sensitized by the MoO 4 2− group. Under UV excitation, characteristic emissions of Ce 3+ at 400–700 nm and Yb 3+ at 1000 nm of NYM:Ce,Yb were observed, enabling the spectral down-conversion applications. With the increasing concentration of Yb 3+ , the emission intensity as well as the lifetime of Ce 3+ decreased, confirming the energy transfer from Ce 3+ ions to Yb 3+ ions. And the energy transfer coefficient was 27% for NYM:0.01Ce,0.10Yb phosphor. These results indicate that the as-prepared phosphors have potential applications in optical and photonic devices.

In this work, we synthesized CuInSe 2 quantum dots (CISe QDs) and applied them to perovskite solar cells (PSCs) as an inorganic hole-transporting material (HTM). A power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 12.8% was achieved for the PSCs using CISe QDs as the HTM, which is the highest value reported to date for devices with a Cu-based chalcopyrite semiconductor as HTM. More importantly, the stability of PSCs with CISe QDs was significantly improved compared with that of the devices using spiro-OMeTAD as the HTM. These results demonstrate that CISe QDs are a promising inorganic HTM for PSCs with long-term stability and low cost.

The discovery of light converter excited by near-ultraviolet (UV) superior broadband blue-emitting lighting source is a main challenge in plant growth LEDs. In this study, SrLu 2 O 4 :Ce 3+ , Li + , F − blue phosphor has been synthesized via a solid-state reaction. Benefitting from doping of F − ions, SrLu 2 O 4 :Ce 3+ , Li + , F − phosphor (λ ex = 405 nm, λ em = 460 nm) shows a strong broadband (FWHM = 90 nm) blue-emitting with lower critical concentration of Ce 3+ ions and an increasing 6.9% thermal quenching performance (92.1% @ 423 K of the peak intensity at room temperature). Moreover, a blue light converter composed of SrLu 2 O 4 :Ce 3+ , Li + , F − phosphor and glass matrix is obtained based on phosphor-in-glass (PiG) technology, exhibiting excellent thermal stability and outstanding moisture resistance . A red light converter with commercial red phosphor is obtained by the same method. Furthermore, by combining of two light converters with near-UV chip, a proof-of-concept plant growth high power LED is achieved and applied in indoor Italian lettuce growing in comparison with commercial plant lamps.

Protein-based nanocarriers with inherent biocompatibility have been widely served as building blocks to construct versatile therapeutic nanoplatforms. Herein, bovine serum albumin-iridium oxide nanoparticles (denoted BSA-IrO2 NPs) are successfully synthesized via one-step biomineralization approach. The BSA-IrO2 NPs exhibits uniform size (40 nm), superb biocompatibility and high drug loading capacity for doxorubicin (27.4 wt%). Under near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation, the as-prepared BSA-IrO2 NPs exhibited high photothermal conversion ability (54.3%) and good photostability. The in vitro drug release experiments displayed pH and NIR laser -triggered DOX release profiles, which could enhance the therapeutic anticancer effect. By utilizing this DOX loaded nanoplatform, effective synergistic chemo-photothermal therapy against human osteosarcoma can be realized, which has been systematically verified both in vitro and in vivo. Notably, in vivo pharmacokinetics studies showed that BSA-IrO2@DOX had prolonged blood circulation time due to the BSA component can improve the stealthiness of the nanoparticles during the blood circulation. Meanwhile, in vitro and in vivo toxicity studies demonstrated that the BSA-IrO2 NPs can act as biocompatible agents for drug delivery and cancer therapy. Therefore, this work presents a biomineralized iridium-based NPs with remarkable features and be used as a very potential therapeutic nanoplatform for cancer treatment.
