Tetracyclines residues, particularly oxytetracycline (OTC) and tetracycline (TC), have raised extensive concern because of their serious adverse effects on human health. Herein, a dual-response fluorescent probe based on nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) and Eu 3+ hybrid (N-CDs–Eu 3+ ) was developed to selectively determine OTC and TC. The N-CDs act as ancillary ligands of Eu 3+ and recognition units of OTC/TC, while the Eu 3+ ions chelated with N-CDs can also specifically recognize OTC/TC. Upon inclusion of OTC/TC, an enhancement in Eu 3+ emission occurs due to the energy transfer from OTC/TC to Eu 3+ and the efficient elimination of quenching effect caused by H 2 O molecule, which is attributed to the incorporation of N-CDs; while the blue fluorescence emitted by the N-CDs decreases under the inner filter effect and static quenching effect caused by OTC/TC. Based on the double and reverse response signals, the ratiometric detection of OTC and TC in the range of 0.1–45 μΜ and 0.1–30 μΜ is achieved with a detection limit of 0.017 and 0.041 μM, respectively. In addition, the noticeable variation in fluorescence color of the probe is integrated with a smartphone-assisted analysis device for the rapid on-site quantitative assay of OTC, where the detection limit is 0.15 μΜ. The results show that this probe performs with excellent specificity and anti-interference for both OTC and TC, and satisfactory detection results are obtained in lake water, milk, and honey samples, thereby confirming that the probe exhibits promising application in food safety and environmental monitoring.

In this work, we synthesize Ca 3 Bi(PO 4 ) 3 :Dy 3+ , Ca 3 Bi(PO 4 ) 3 :Eu 3+ , and Ca 3 Bi(PO 4 ) 3 :Eu 3+ , Dy 3+ . The crystal structure, phase purity, and the luminescence properties of samples are investigated, respectively. Ca 3 Bi(PO 4 ) 3 :Dy 3+ under excitation at 350 nm shows yellow emission because of the 4 F 9/2 → 6 H 15/2 , 6 H 13/2 , 6 H 11/2 , and 6 H 9/2 transitions of Dy 3+ . Ca 3 Bi(PO 4 ) 3 :Eu 3+ with excitation at 394 nm emits red-orange emission due to the 5 D 0 → 7 F 1 , 7 F 2 , 7 F 3 , and 7 F 4 transitions of Eu 3+ ion. Ca 3 Bi(PO 4 ) 3 :Dy 3+ , Eu 3+ with excitation at 394 nm mainly shows the emission of Eu 3+ , however, that with excitation at 350 nm mainly derive from Dy 3+ ion. We investigate the effects of the ratio between Dy 3+ and Eu 3+ in Ca 3 Bi(PO 4 ) 3 :Eu 3+ , Dy 3+ on the luminescence properties. The energy transfer from Dy 3+ to Eu 3+ in Ca 3 Bi(PO 4 ) 3 :Eu 3+ , Dy 3+ is found. We analyze the luminous mechanism of samples by energy level diagrams of Dy 3+ and Eu 3+ ions. The results are helpful for the research of other Dy 3+ and Eu 3+ co-doped luminescence materials.

The exploitation of phosphors with tunable color emissions is of great significance in the field of display and lighting. Herein, a series of Eu 3+ /Dy 3+ /Eu 2+ ions single-/multiple-doped NaMgPO 4 phosphors have been successfully synthesized via a high-temperature solid-state reaction method. The luminescence properties of the synthesized NaMgPO 4 phosphors were systematically investigated. The incorporation of Dy 3+ enables the tuning of emission peaks in NaMgPO 4 :Eu 3+ phosphors through an efficient energy transfer (ET) process from Eu 3+ to Dy 3+ , thereby facilitating white light emission in a single-composition phosphor. Eu 3+ and Eu 2+ co-activated NaMgPO 4 phosphors were achieved by controlling the reduction of Eu 3+ to Eu 2+ under a reducing atmosphere generated by activated carbon. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra revealed simultaneous blue emission from Eu 2+ and red emission from Eu 3+ . By varying the amount of activated carbon, tunable emission colors can be realized in the Eu 3+ /Eu 2+ codoped NaMgPO 4 phosphors. Consequently, through the strategic design of rare-earth ion codoping, the Eu 3+ /Dy 3+ /Eu 2+ ions single-/multiple-doped NaMgPO 4 phosphors exhibit promising practical applications in phosphor-converted white light-emitting diodes (LEDs).

Well-crystallized and uniform NaGd(MoO4)2 microcrystals with morphologies of bipyramids, truncated bipyramids, quasi-cubes and tetragonal plates were selectively synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method without any additives under mild conditions. The effects of Na2MoO4/Gd(NO3)3 molar ratios and pH values of precursor solutions on the phase and morphology of the as-synthesized microcrystals were systematically investigated. The molar ratios and pH values played key roles in the selective synthesis of pure phase NaGd(MoO4)2 microcrystals with regular morphology. With increasing Na2MoO4/Gd(NO3)3 molar ratios in the appropriate pH range, the morphology of the products changed from bipyramids, truncated bipyramids, quasi-cubes to tetragonal plates, namely, the morphological truncation degree increased gradually. NaGd(MoO4)2 tetragonal microplates could be synthesized at the molar ratio of 9 : 1. A possible morphological formation mechanism of NaGd(MoO4)2 tetragonal microplates was proposed, i.e. nucleation-Ostwald ripening growth process. Color tunable photoluminescence properties of NaGd(MoO4)2:Eu3+,Tb3+ microcrystals were studied in detail. Among the different morphologies of NaGd(MoO4)2:5% Eu3+ microcrystals, tetragonal microplates had a broadened, red-shifted and enhanced charge transfer band in the excitation spectrum. What's more, the full-width at half-maximum for the charge transfer band of the tetragonal plates was highest (58 nm), which favored efficient excitation and absorption in the ultraviolet region. The introduction of a small amount of Tb3+ into NaGd(MoO4)2 microplates doped with Eu3+ would enhance the 5D0 → 7FJ transition of Eu3+ at 616 nm due to the energy transfer process of cross-relaxation from Tb3+ to Eu3+. Multicolor tunable luminescence from deep red, red, orange, yellow to green under 291 nm ultraviolet excitation and from red, reddish orange to pink under 380 nm near-ultraviolet excitation could be obtained in NaGd(MoO4)2 tetragonal microplates by simply adjusting the doping concentrations of Eu3+ and Tb3+, suggesting NaGd(MoO4)2:Eu3+,Tb3+ microcrystals might have practical application in optoelectronic devices, such as light emitting diodes and color display systems. This facile morphology-controlled hydrothermal synthesis strategy was simple, low-cost and environment-friendly, and might be extended to other inorganic materials.

Green phosphor is an essential component in phosphor-converted white light-emitting diodes (pc-LEDs). Herein, a novel green-emitting phosphate phosphor Sr 8 ZnY(PO 4 ) 7 :Eu 2+ (SZYP:Eu 2+ ) was synthesized through hydrothermal reaction method. The crystal structure, photoluminescence properties as well as thermal stability of SZYP:Eu 2+ were investigated systematically. SZYP:Eu 2+ can be efficiently excited by n-UV light in the range from 220 to 550 nm and shows a broad emission band centered at 520 nm with a full width at half maximum of 86 nm. The optimized doping concentration of Eu 2+ was determined to be 0.02 mol. With the increase of Eu 2+ content, a subtle red shift about 4 nm in emission spectra was detected. SZYP:Eu 2+ also shows comparable thermal stability (45% at 150 °C) and it can be further varied to 44, 40 and 51% by co-doping with Pr 3+ , Tm 3+ and Yb 3+ , respectively. The white LED device blended with SZYP:Eu 2+ shows excellent electroluminescence (EL) properties. The low correlated color temperature (4791 K) and ultrahigh color rendering index (95.8) imply that this phosphor may find a potential application in high-quality white LEDs.

Due to the lack of intermediate levels and the large energy mismatch with Yb3+, the achievement of efficient upconversion (UC) of Eu3+ is a great challenge. Herein, intense UC emission of Eu3+ is demonstrated via controllable and efficient unidirectional energy transfer from Yb3+–Mn2+ dimers in perovskite fluoride KCdF3:Yb3+,Mn2+,Eu3+ synthesized by a facile solvothermal method. The UC emission color of KCdF3:Yb3+,Mn2+,Eu3+ can be well tuned from yellow to orange and ultimately turned into Eu3+ pure red emission by controlling the Eu3+ concentration. Moreover, a significantly prolonged Eu3+ UC emission lifetime is observed in this system, and it is ascribed to the genetic effect of the sustained resonance energy transfer from Yb3+–Mn2+ dimers to Eu3+. The pump power and temperature dependent UC behaviors further suggest that the phosphor exhibits excellent chromaticity stability. Owing to the long-lived and chromaticity stable UC luminescence, the as-prepared KCdF3:Yb3+,Mn2+,Eu3+ phosphor may be a highly suitable candidate for lifetime-encoded information encryption, anti-counterfeiting, etc.

The local symmetry of a Eu3+ ion has a crucial effect on its luminescence properties. In this work, we show that the red/orange ratio in the emission of Eu3+-doped MgIn2P4O14 phosphors is tunable by adjusting the Eu3+ concentrations, due to the change in the local symmetry of metal ions. The substitution of Eu3+ for In3+ lowers the distortion in the lattice of monoclinic MgIn2P4O14, and an increase in Eu3+ doping concentration causes the metal ion sites to shift closer to an inverse center, leading to a reversal of the relative emission intensity of a magnetic dipole transition to an electric dipole transition. Meanwhile, the higher asymmetry of metal ion sites occupied by Eu3+ in MgIn2P4O14 makes the luminescence less thermally stable than that in Mg3In4P6O24.

Homogeneously Eu 3+ doped LaOCl single crystals are firstly synthesized in a molten KCl-LiCl flux, and the well-shaped LaOCl:Eu 3+ polyhedral micro-plates exhibit noticeable luminescent properties. The bulk LaOCl:Eu 3+ micro-plate with a width of 1.03 μm and 1.37 μm in length shows a single crystal characteristic with the crystal face orientation of [00 1 ‾ ]. Both XRD patterns and EDS mapping indicate that the Eu 3+ ions have been homogeneously doped into LaOCl lattice. LaOCl:Eu 3+ nucleuses generated in molten KCl-LiCl flux at even 350 °C benefited to the decomposition of La(OH) 3 :Eu 3+ precursor, and polyhedral LaOCl micro-plate is easily formed in molten KCl-LiCl salt due to the solid-ionic reaction and crystal growth. The luminescent properties of LaOCl:Eu 3+ are firstly enhanced and then weakened with the increasing concentration of the doped Eu 3+ , 6% Eu 3+ doped LaOCl:Eu 3+ exhibits the best luminescent properties which can be used as a potential LED material.

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) with excellent physicochemical properties similar to ionic liquids and biocompatibility are potential solvent candidates for designing novel lanthanide luminescent soft materials. In this paper, the fabrication and characterization of such luminescent gels in three choline chloride (ChCl)-based DESs through self-assembly of the sodium cholate and europium nitrate are presented. The microstructure and gel-like nature of the obtained eutectogels were explored and confirmed by scanning electron microscopy and rheology measurements. While Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and small-angle X-ray scattering were used to analyze the gel formation mechanism, which was considered to be synergistically driven by metal coordination, hydrogen bonding and solvophobic interactions. All three eutectogels exhibited good photophysical properties. Among these, the one formed in ChCl/urea DES was found to possess the strongest mechanical strength. While the one formed in ChCl/glycerol DES exhibited the longest luminescence lifetime and quantum efficiency. The obtained results demonstrate the possibility of using DESs to construct lanthanide luminescent soft materials or control their properties through the choice of hydrogen-bond donor molecules.

The controllable design and precise modulation of the functional properties of materials based on theoretical calculations has always been the goal of materials researchers. Through the comparative analysis of theoretical calculations and experimental phenomena, physical properties, including optical properties, electrical conductivity, and dielectric properties, can be further comprehended. In this work, on the basis of the first-principles calculations of many inorganic compounds, we selected BaSnSi3O9 (BSSO) as the research focus and found that it contained two cationic sites with completely different electronic characteristics. Among them, the electron density of cations at the Ba site shows obvious localization characteristics, whereas the Sn site shows strong interaction with the surrounding environment. This distinct difference in electronic characteristics is very beneficial to the research and design of materials with functional properties. When functional ions are introduced into Ba sites, the relatively complete independence of these ions will be maintained. That is, if an ion with multiple stable valence states is introduced at the Ba site, it will exhibit the coexistence of multiple valence states. However, if an ion is introduced at the Sn site, this ion will lose its independence and exhibit strong interaction with the surrounding crystal field environment. The rare earth element europium (Eu) with two stable divalent and trivalent valence states in its normal state was chosen as a probe to verify the theoretical predictions in this work. According to the calculation results, when Eu occupied the Ba site, the spectrum simultaneously showed the luminescence of Eu3+ and Eu2+, and had a larger luminescence quenching concentration when the influence of defects was ignored. When Eu occupied the Sn lattice site, it only showed the luminescence of Eu3+, and had a lower luminescence quenching concentration due to the attractive effect that the surrounding O atoms had on the Eu electrons. Our research indicates that the experimental results are consistent with the theoretical predictions. This paper analyzes the important role of Eu optical probes in terms of investigating their physical mechanisms and optical properties in detail. It will provide valuable inspiration for theoretical calculations to guide the design of materials and the modulation of their functional properties.

We describe a highly sensitive chemical sensor for the detection of the hydrazine hydrate. The chemical sensor was synthesized by simply doping a UiO-66 type metal–organic framework (MOF) with Eu3+ through a well-known post-synthetic modification method. The Eu3+@MOF was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), nitrogen gas adsorption isotherm measurements, FTIR, and ICP-MS. This luminescent probe exhibits strong emission intensity, and more significantly, displays various merits, such as high selectivity with notable photoluminescence quenching effect, rapid response time, and remarkable sensitivity with low detection of limit for hydrazine recognition. Under the optimal experimental conditions, hydrazine hydrate can be detected by this method in concentrations as low as 0.18 μM, which is much lower than the threshold limit value (10 ppb, ≈0.3 μM) of hydrazine exposure recommended by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). More interestingly, a portable film sensing device derived from this MOF display quick response to hydrazine hydrate within 90 s. A possible luminescent quenching mechanism for hydrazine hydrate was also investigated.
