Ca(MoO4)x(WO4)(1-x)solid solution microcrystallines were synthesized by hydrothermal method at 120 °C; the crystal structure, surface morphology and room temperature photoluminescence properties of the as-synthesized microcrystallines were investigated by through X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron micrograph (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and fluorescence analysis (FA), respectively. Our results show that the obtained Ca(MoO4)x(WO4)(1-x)microcrystallines are single-phase scheelite structure with tetragonal symmetry. The grain size of the Ca(MoO4)x(WO4)(1-x) microcrystallines gradually increases with the increasing x (except x=0) and their agglomeration also becomes serious with x increasing. Under excited by 245 nm or 280 nm ultraviolet light (UV-light) at room temperature, the emission spectra of the Ca(MoO4)x(WO4)(1-x) microcrystallines vary slightly from 410nm to 490nm with increasing x. Whereas the emission intensity of Ca(MoO4)x(WO4)(1-x) microcrystallines changed markedly, and it increases with the increasing x (x>0).

In this work, we report the synthesis method of carbon quantum dots (CDs) using the one-step method for fast and effective metal ion determination. Ascorbic acid was used as an inexpensive and environmentally friendly precursor. High-pressure and high-temperature reactors were used for this purpose. Microscopic characterization revealed the size of CDs was in the range of 2–6 nm and they had an ordered structure. The photoluminescence properties of the CDs depend on the process temperature, and we obtained the highest PL spectra for 6 h of hydrothermal reaction. The maximum emission spectra depend poorly on synthesis time. Further characterization shows that CDs are a good contender for sensing Fe3+ in aqueous systems and can detect concentrations up to 0.49 ppm. The emission spectra efficiency was enhanced by up to 200% with synthesis time.

The BaZr[Formula: see text]Si2O[Formula: see text]: Eu[Formula: see text]/Eu[Formula: see text] phosphors were prepared with different concentrations of Eu2O3 by a self-reduction method under air condition. The X-ray diffraction and the photoluminescence properties of the prepared samples were analyzed. The emission spectra consisting of a broadband emission from the 4f[Formula: see text]5d transitions of Eu[Formula: see text] and sharp emissions from 5D0-7F[Formula: see text] (J = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) transitions of Eu[Formula: see text] are observed. The different luminescent colors can be obtained and modulated by doping different concentrations of Eu2O3 and the white light emission can be observed as the concentration of europium is 6%.

Fluorescent nanoparticles were prepared via adsorption of the conjugated polyelectrolyte poly[5-methoxy-2-(3-sulfopropoxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene] (MPS-PPV) onto 50 and 100 nm aminosilane functionalized silica beads. The particles were investigated via ensemble and single-molecule or -particle spectroscopy techniques to quantify the effect of the silica bead core on the exciton migration efficiency within the polymer. Ensemble emission spectra and ensemble fluorescence quenching studies with methyl viologen are consistent with good exciton migration along the polymer in the polymer-coated bead. The silica nanobead scaffolding preserves the sensitivity of the free polymer and provides a controllable architecture that minimizes nonspecific interactions. Single-particle spectroscopy studies were conducted on particles immobilized onto the positively charged surface of glass cover slips. Particle immobilization enabled us to monitor the effect of oxygen scavenger solutions on individual particles by changing the surrounding solution. The intensity–time trajectories of individual beads provide a mechanism of signal transduction with potential applications in multiplexing studies. Hundreds of individual beads can be imaged in a rapid parallel fashion.

ABSTRACTStimulated emission characteristics are examined for GaN-AlGaN separate-confinement quantum-well heterostructures grown by MOVPE on 4H-SiC substrates. We specifically focus on comparison of structures with different quantum well active region designs. Polarization resolved edge emission spectra and stimulated emission thresholds are obtained under optical pumping using a stripe excitation geometry. Stimulated emission characteristics are studied as a function of the number of quantum wells in the structure, and are correlated with surface photoluminescence properties. We find reduced stimulated emission thresholds and increased surface photoluminescence intensities as the number of quantum wells is reduced, with the best results obtained for a single-quantum-well structure. These results should provide useful information for the design of GaN-based quantum well lasers.

Rhombic NaLa(MoO4)2:Ln3+ (Ln = Eu and Tb) nanocrystals were synthesized by a hydrothermal method. The structures and morphologies of the nanocrystals were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. The results indicated that the crystalline size increased with increasing Na2MoO4 content. The photoluminescence properties of NaLa(MoO4)2:Ln3+ nanocrystals were investigated in detail. In the emission spectra of NaLa(MoO4)2:Eu3+ nanocrystals, the 5D0 → 7F2 is dominant, and the peak positions and spectral shapes of emissions were independent of Eu3+ concentration. The luminescence intensity increased with increasing Eu3+ concentration, up to about 10 mol%, and then decreased. In the emission spectra of NaLa(MoO4)2:Tb3+ nanocrystals, the 5D4 → 7F5 is dominant. The sample with a dopant concentration of 20 mol% showed the highest emission intensity.
