ABSTRACTFour samples of (Y1−xCex)3(Al1−y Gay)5O12 (where x=0.01, 0.02 and y=0, 0.5) were synthesized via the simple, efficient combustion synthesis method in order to determine the effect of substituting Ga3+ for Al3+ on the temperature-dependent fluorescent lifetime. X-ray diffraction shows that the Ga-doped samples have longer lattice constants and transmission electron microscopy data show that each sample consists of nanocrystallites which have agglomerated in micron-sized particles. Photoluminescence data reveal that the addition of gallium into the YAG:Ce matrix induces a red shift in the absorption spectra and a blue-shift in the emission spectra. The laser-induced fluorescent lifetime was determined as a function of temperature over the range of 0-125°C using two different emission filters. Increasing the amount of dopant ultimately results in a decrease of the fluorescent lifetime. The quenching temperatures for the Ga-doped samples were lower than the samples without gallium. The results of this work show that combustion synthesis is viable method for making highly luminescent, nanocrystalline TGPs. In addition, these results show that the quenching temperature of YAG:Ce can be altered by substituting ions which alter the location of the charge transfer state and by changing the morphology of the sample.

Polymeric Template

Magnetic nanocomposites based on maghemite nanoparticles supported (ex situ route) on styrene- divinilbenzene (Sty-DVB) copolymer templates were produced and characterized for their structure and morphology. The as-produced nanocomposites were further chemically-treated with different oxidant agents and surface-coated with stearic acid. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy data show that the incorporated nanoparticles are preserved despite the aggressive chemical treatments employed. From the dynamical susceptibility measurements performed on the nanocomposites, the values of the saturation magnetization (76 emu/g) and the effective magnetic anisotropy (1.7 × 104 J/m3) were obtained, in excellent agreement with the values reported in the literature for maghemite. This finding strongly supports the preservation of the magnetic properties of the supported nanosized maghemite throughout the entire samples’ processing.

The conditions of formation of the ZrO2 and HfO2 high-temperature (tetragonal and cubic) phases in the ablated nanoparticles were investigated. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy data demonstrate that laser intensities above 109 W/m2 ensure the formation of the ZrO2 high-temperature phases, while intensities above 5·109 W/m2 do the formation of the HfO2 high-temperature phases. Quantitative content of the high-temperature phases in layers of the ablated nanoparticles increases with raising the intensity. The obtained nanoparticles exhibit good thermal stability.

Heating Mode

The existence of selective microwave absorption phenomena in the synthesis of CdSe quantum dots has been investigated. These types of microwave effects involving selective microwave absorption by specific reagents have recently been proposed in the microwave-assisted synthesis of various nanoparticles. In the present study, the microwave synthesis of CdSe quantum dots was investigated according to a protocol published by Washington and Strouse to clarify the presence of selective microwave heating. Importantly, control experiments involving conventional conductive heating were executed under otherwise (except for the heating mode) identical conditions, ensuring the same heating and cooling profiles, stirring rates, and reactor geometries. Comparison of powder X-ray diffraction, UV-vis, photoluminescence, and transmission electron microscopy data of the obtained CdSe quantum dots reveals that identical types of nanoparticles are obtained independently of the heating mode. Therefore, no evidence for a selective microwave absorption phenomenon could be obtained.

CaF2:Yb3+,Er3+ upconversion (UC) luminescence nanoparticles have been synthesized using mesoporous silica (SBA-15) as a hard template. The samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectra, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and UC emission spectra, respectively. Highly crystalline cubic phase CaF2:Yb3+,Er3+ nanoparticles are uniformly distributed with an average diameter of about 40–50 nm, and the formation process is also demonstrated. The UC fluorescence has been realized in the as-prepared CaF2:Yb3+,Er3+ nanoparticles on 980-nm excitation. The UC emission transitions for 4F9/2–4I15/2 (red), 2H11/2–4I15/2 (green), 4S3/2–4I15/2 (green), and 2H9/2–4I15/2 (violet) in the Yb3+/Er3+ codoped CaF2 nanoparticles depending on pumping power and temperature have been discussed. The UC mechanism, especially the origin on the temperature-dependent UC emission intensities ratio between 2H11/2 and 4S3/2 levels, have been proposed.

CdS/ZnO quantum dots (QDs) were prepared at a temperature of 293 K by the sol-gel method with Triethanolamine (TEA) as a capping agent. The effect of CdS/ZnO mixture ratio of 1:9, 1:1 and 9:1 on the optical absorption and fluorescence spectra were investigated by UV-Vis and Fluorescence spectroscopy. By increasing ZnO composition, a blue-shift of absorption edge and emission spectra were observed. The band gap for 1:9, 1:1 and 9:1 were found to be 4.13, 3.93 and 3.11 eV, respectively. The morphology of the CdS/ZnO QDs for each mixing ratio was obtained by transmission electron microscope (TEM). The size of the QDs was found to be in the range of 5-10 nm with some agglomerated particles.

In this work, we studied possibility to obtain bimetallic nanopowders by our modified solution combustion synthesis method using citric acid as a fuel. Stoichiometric amounts of metal nitrates with metal to metal ratios 1:1 and 1:2 and fuels with final oxidizer to fuel ratio of 1.75 were used as initial components to prepare aqueous solutions. The almost complete absence of metal oxide phases was confirmed by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The X-ray diffraction analysis of obtained materials showed that all samples are pure bimetallic nanopowders with distorted cubic crystal structure of each metal. According to high resolution transmission electron microscopy the mean diameter of metallic particles are about 10 nm for all nanopowders. The calculated interplanar distances of crystals of metal particles as well as detailed scanning transmission electron microscopy studying showed uniform distribution of different metal spices into nanoparticles. Thus, we can conclude the nanopowders are bimetallic particles with co-integrated crystal structures of different metalic spices. We suppose, the possibility of solution combustion synthesis of bimetallic nanopowder in the air environment is due to a combination of type and amount of the fuels as well as technological conditions of the synthesis. These lead to rapid combustion process at low temperature. In addition, protective inert atmosphere appears above freshly synthesized metal nanopowders during thermal decompositions of the fuels that eventually prevent metal oxidation. Modified SCS method could be successfully used for one-step synthesis of complex oxide-oxide and metal-oxide core-shell nanostructures.

Organically functionalized manganese doped zinc sulfide (ZnS/Mn) quantum dots were prepared by simple chemical method with polypyrrole (PPy) used as a capping agent. Prepared quantum dots were characterized with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), X-ray diffraction microscope (XRD), UV-visible spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Crystalline size of PPy capped ZnS/Mn quantum dots for various concentrations of PPy were approximate 2 nm as analyzed by XRD and TEM analysis. The absorption spectra revealed the occurrence of a blue shift in the peak of absorption and an increase in the band gap value due to the quantum confinement effect. FTIR spectroscopy confirmed that shifting of broad peak at 2335.8 cm–1 was due to S-H stretching vibrations, which confirmed interaction of hydrogen and sulphur in ZnS/Mn/PPy nanocomposites. Uncapped ZnS/Mn and PPy capped ZnS/Mn quantum dots reveal the effective photoluminescence emission spectra in the range of 300-700 nm. With increase the value of capping agent in ZnS/Mn quantum dots, photoluminescence spectra going to red shifting. The photoluminescence properties of the organically functionalized ZnS nanoparticles are favourable for the application in optoelectronic devices.
