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.

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.

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.

Nano-Mg(OH)2 is attracting great attention as adsorbent for pre-concentration and recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) from low-concentration solution, due to its superior removal efficiency for REEs and environmental friendliness. However, the nanoparticles also cause some severe problems during application, including aggregation, blockage in fixed-bed column, as well as the difficulties in separation and reuse. Herein, in order to avoid the mentioned problems, a carbon cloth (CC) supported nano-Mg(OH)2 (nano-Mg(OH)2@CC) was synthesized by electrodeposition. The X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy analysis demonstrated that the interlaced nano-sheet of Mg(OH)2 grew firmly and uniformly on the surface of carbon cloth fibers. Batch adsorption experiments of Eu(III) indicated that the nano-Mg(OH)2@CC composite maintained the excellent adsorption performance of nano-Mg(OH)2 toward Eu(III). After adsorption, the Eu containing composite was calcined under nitrogen atmosphere. The content of Eu2O3 in the calcined material was as high as 99.66%. Fixed-bed column experiments indicated that no blockage for Mg(OH)2@CC composite was observed during the treatment, while the complete blockage of occurred to nano-Mg(OH)2 at an effluent volume of 240 mL. Moreover, the removal efficiency of Mg(OH)2@CC was still higher than 90% until 4,200 mL of effluent volume. This work provides a promising method for feasible application of nanoadsorbents in fixed-bed process to recycle low-concentration REEs from wastewater.

Ca2SiO4 is a phase-change material, and γ- and β-Ca2SiO4 usually coexist in the sintered product. The overlap of the diffraction data between the two polymorphs makes the relevant phase identification difficult. In this work, the Eu3+ rear-earth fluorescence probe is introduced in the preparation of Ca2SiO4, and the obtained result indicates that the introduction of Eu3+ ions facilitates the increase in the content of β-Ca2SiO4 in the final product. In addition, the differences of the local coordination environments between the two Ca2SiO4 phases obviously influence the crystal-field splittings of Eu3+ ions, especially in the 5D0 → 7F0 nondegenerate and 5D0 → 7F1 magnetic dipole transition regions. On the basis of the excitation from the Eu3+–O2– charge-transfer band, the low-temperature spectral changes are systematically discussed. The transition area ratios of 5D0 → 7F0/5D0 → 7F2 and 5D0 → 7F1/5D0 → 7F2 present a positive and negative correlation with the increase of the excitation wavelength, respectively. The four nonequivalent 5D0 → 7F0 emission peaks with low to high wavelengths are identified as Eu3+ ion-occupied Ca(β-2) (571.8 nm), Ca(β-1) (573.8 nm), Ca(γ-2) (577.6 nm), and Ca(γ-1) (578.9 nm) sites. Besides, the relationship between the phase content of γ-Ca2SiO4 and the spectral change for the 5D0 → 7F0 emissions of the Eu3+ ions is also built. It is fitted by an exponential correlation function and is quite suitable for the prediction of the phase content of γ-Ca2SiO4 based on the measured spectra. The findings in this study manifest the promising application of the Eu3+ fluorescent probe in phase identification and enrich the analysis method in inorganic phase-change materials.

Phosphate anions are determined based on the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of CdSe quantum dots (CdSe QDs) capped with 3-mercaptopropionic acid. The ECL gets quenched with the introduction of Eu 3+ ions, but it is restored on the further addition of phosphate anions. The sensing mechanism might be due to the strong and specific interaction between phosphate anions and the Eu 3+ ions, leading to the releasing of CdSe QDs from aggregates. On the basis of the quenching/recovery ECL behaviors, the ECL sensor offer acceptable sensitivity, high selectivity, and a linear response from 0.1 to 120 µM with a detection limit of 0.03 µM (3δ) for phosphate anions.
