Dual-emitting ratiometric optical thermometers with the advantages of excellent self-calibration and high-sensitivity have become a research hot spot. Herein, a dual-emissive 4-methylumbelliferone encapsulated ZIF-8 (ZIF-8⊃4-MU) modified Zn 2 GeO 4 :Mn 2+ nanocomposite was simply prepared by adding Zn 2 GeO 4 :Mn 2+ nanorods into a methanol solution containing 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU), zinc (II) nitrate hexahydrate, and 2-methylimidazole. Accompanying with the self-assembly of ZIF-8⊃4-MU, the binding affinity of Zn 2+ ions to the surface of Zn 2 GeO 4 :Mn 2+ nanorods enables the formation of ZIF-8⊃4-MU@Zn 2 GeO 4 :Mn 2+ nanocomposite. The photoluminescence violet-blue (420 nm) and green emissions (531 nm) of the nanocomposite can be ascribed to the two independent luminescent centers of 4-MU dyes confined in ZIF-8 and the characteristic transition of 4 T 1 - 6 A 1 for Mn 2+ ions doped in Zn 2 GeO 4 , respectively. The fluorescent intensity ratios (FIRs) of 4-MU to Mn 2+ (I 420 nm /I 531 nm ) showed excellent self-calibrating temperature monitoring functions with a maximum relative sensitivity (S r ) of 1.82%· o C −1 and stable reusability in the temperature range of 20–100 °C. Also, the ZIF-8⊃4-MU@Zn 2 GeO 4 :Mn 2+ hybridized polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) transparent film showed a similar multi-emitting behavior, as well as good processability and tensile properties . Benefiting from the excitation-dependent emitting property of ZIF-8⊃4-MU@Zn 2 GeO 4 :Mn 2+ , a multiple optical encryption of digital information was successfully realized based on a two-dimensional code, achieving an enhanced security level for preventing counterfeiting. This proof-of-concept study offers a feasible assembled way in fabricating multi-mode luminescent nanocomposites for ratiometric temperature sensing and information encryption .

Traditional fluorescent materials used in the anti-counterfeiting field usually exhibit monochromatic luminescence at a single-wavelength excitation, which is easily forged by sophisticated counterfeiters. In this work, Zn2GeO4:Mn,x%Li (x = 0 and 20), Zn2GeO4–NaLiGe4O9:Mn,x%Li (x = 50 and 70) and NaLiGe4O9:Mn micro-phosphors with multi-chromatic and multi-mode luminescence have been successfully synthesized via a hydrothermal approach followed by an annealing treatment. As expected these Li+ doped Zn2GeO4:Mn and Zn2GeO4–NaLiGe4O9:Mn phosphors exhibit a double peak emission including a long green afterglow (∼540 nm) and red photoluminescence (∼668 nm). By tuning Li+ doping concentrations, a gradual colour output and a tuneable afterglow duration are achieved. In particular, the Zn2GeO4:Mn,Li and NaLiGe4O9:Mn phosphors exhibit excellent performance as security inks for printing luminescent numbers and anti-counterfeiting patterns, which show an afterglow time-dependent or excitation wavelength-dependent luminescence colour evolution. This work proves the feasibility of the Li+ doping strategy in emission tuning, which can stimulate further studies on multi-mode luminescent materials for anti-counterfeiting applications.

We present a pressure-induced amorphization for pure and 0.5 mol. % Bi 3+ -doped Zn 2 GeO 4 samples, measured by high pressure Raman spectroscopy and high resolution transmission electron microscopy. Pressure-induced conductivity switching phenomena were discovered for both samples at around ∼7.01 GPa and ∼11.11 GPa, respectively, which closely correlated with the crystalline-to-amorphous transformation. The detailed conduction mechanism and the defect reaction process at high pressure indicate that the application of pressure could efficiently manipulate the microstructure and electrical performance of rare-earth doped polycrystalline materials, and therefore holds great promise for numerous applications in the future.

Persistent luminescence nanomaterials can remain luminescence when the light source is turned off, which exhibits promise in biosensor and bioimaging fields since they have the ability to completely eradicate tissue autofluorescence. Although significant progress has been made in the persistent luminescence biosensing, there is still a dearth of long-afterglow detection platform with low limit of detection (LOD) and high sensitivity. Herein, Zn 2 GeO 4 :Mn, Cr persistently luminescent nanorods (PLNRs) with superior persistent luminescence and long afterglow time were developed. The addition of Cr 3+ manifestly improves persistent luminescence intensity and afterglow duration through creating a deep defect trap. Then the biosensors were constructed by combining the Zn 2 GeO 4 :Mn,Cr PLNRs-antibody and Fe 3 O 4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs)-antibody for nucleocapsid protein detection based on electrostatic attraction. The LOD value for nucleocapsid protein realizes as low as 39.82 ag/mL, which is much lower than the previously reported persistent luminescent-based biosensors. Accordingly, the low detection sensitivity is attributed to fluorescence resonance energy transfer. In addition, high specificity is also achieved. Therefore, the as-prepared Zn 2 GeO 4 :Mn,Cr persistently luminescent materials can act as the promising candidate in biosensors applications. This strategy provides effective guidance for the development of biosensing platforms with high sensitivity and specificity.

Double wavelength emitting phosphors with hypersensitive thermal response are important for optical/thermal sensors and multiplexing optical data storage technology. However, it is a daunting challenge to develop multicolor electron-trapping materials with superheat sensitivity and anomalous quenching luminescence characteristics for information storage. Here, based on the selection of host lattice and the control of doping ion types, we have designed Mn 2+ - and/or Cr 3+ -activated persistent materials with excellent fluorescence properties. Among these phosphors, Mn,Cr co-activated biphasic mixture exhibits not only sensitive anomalous thermosensitive fluorescence properties but also multicolor and multimode fluorescence emission characteristics derived from Mn and Cr simultaneously. The corresponding multimode fluorescence mechanism is proposed based on afterglow energy transfer and deepening trap effect. Especially, based on the excellent fluorescence performances, these phosphors as information storage medium demonstrate multilevel information storage by a combination of the trap multiplexing and wavelength multiplexing technologies. The study here provides not only the ideas for designing and synthesizing new electronic materials but also a material foundation for the fourth generation of optical information storage and encryption.

Persistent luminescent nanoparticles (PLNPs) are a class of materials with excellent optical properties , which can continue to emit light for a long time after removing the excitation light source. This feature enables PLNPs to be used for development of biological detection modes without autofluorescence background. In this study, we prepared Zn 2 GeO 4 : Mn 2+ , Pr 3+ (ZGOMP) nanorods through a one-pot hydrothermal method . Using the pH-responsive luminescence behavior of ZGOMP, we developed an autofluorescence-free biosensor using ZGOMP as a probe and gluconic acid as a quencher to detect prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and magnetic separation system were introduced in the design to achieve efficient signal amplification. Under the optimal conditions, the as-designed autofluorescence-free sensing platform showed high selectivity , and showed a good luminescence response to PSA within the linear range of 0.001–10 ng/mL at a detection limit of 0.64 pg/mL. The excellent analytical performance shows that the current strategy provides an effective platform for clinical sample analysis.

Serious ochratoxin A (OTA) contamination necessitates the development of rapid, sensitive and selective analytical methods for its determination in food safety. Herein, we report a persistent luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET) based aptasensor for the autofluorescence-free detection of OTA. OTA aptamer functionalized persistent luminescence nanorod (PLNR) Zn 2 GeO 4 :Mn 2+ and the aptamer complementary DNA modified gold nanoparticle (AuNP) were used as the donor and the acceptor, respectively. The developed LRET aptasensor integrated the advantages of the long-lasting persistent luminescence of PLNR, the high selectivity of aptamer and the low probe background of LRET sensors, allowing autofluorescence-free detection of OTA in biological samples with high sensitivity and selectivity. The developed LRET aptasensor gave an excellent linearity in the range of 0.01–10 ng mL −1 , the detection limit of 3 pg mL −1 and the precision of 2.7% (RSD, n = 11) at 1 ng mL −1 level. The applicability of the developed aptasensor was demonstrated by analyzing beer samples for OTA with the recoveries of 92.3%–104%.

An accurate and sensitive competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on persistent luminescence nanoparticles Zn 2 GeO 4 :Mn 2+ , Eu 3+ (ZGME) was developed for detecting ochratoxin A (OTA), a powerfully toxic mycotoxin usually found in grains. As a signal output element of autofluorescence-free biosensors, ZGME can be integrated into ELISA with glucose oxidase (GOx)-binding OTA molecules due to its excellent pH-responsive persistent luminescence. In the absence of OTA, the OTA-GOx conjugate was captured by the anti-OTA monoclonal antibody (anti-OTA mAb) pre-coated on the 96-well plate. The results indicate a decrease in the pH value of the solution, which triggered the quenching of ZGME luminescence due to GOx-dependent gluconic acid production. The presence of OTA inhibited the binding of OTA-GOx on the plate, thus decreasing the production of gluconic acid and increasing the persistent luminous intensity of ZGME. Under the optimized concentrations of anti-OTA mAb and OTA-GOx, quantitative determination of OTA was achieved by plotting the increase or decrease in persistent luminescence intensity of ZGME at 535 nm. In this study, the linear range was from 0.1 μg L −1 to 63 μg L −1 , and the limit of detection (LOD) was as low as 0.045 μg L −1 . In five food samples (corn grit, brown rice, soybean, rice, and wheat), the results exhibited good stability and repeatability, with a recovery range from 81.3% to 94.4% and a relative standard deviation (RSD) of less than 4.2%. Hence, the established method provides a sensitive, accurate, and autofluorescence-free approach for the determination of OTA in different grain samples.
