The trivalent europium ion (Eu 3+) is well known for its strong luminescence in the red
spectral region, but this ion is also interesting from a theoretical point of view. Due to the …

Tripositive europium attracts wide interest in diverse fields such as phosphors, sensors, and
time-gated bioimaging agents based upon its optical emission spectra. Some inaccurate …

Luminescent materials used in solid-state lighting usually face the challenge of the
adjustment of luminescence properties. The coordinated luminescence of two activators in …

In order to explore a new family of phosphate phosphors, the synthesis and crystal structure
of a novel phosphate family, Ca19M2 (PO4) 14 (M= Mg, Zn, Mn), were investigated. Eu3+ …

Structure determines properties, and properties determine applications, which is an
important ideology of natural sciences. For optical materials, it is vital to lucubrate the …

The hydrothermal synthesis of the novel Na [LnSiO4](Ln= Gd, Eu, Tb) disordered
orthorhombic system is reported. At 100 K, and above, these materials are best described in …

Alkali borate glasses activated with trivalent europium ions and rooted with gold (Au)
nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesised through a melt quenching process involving a …

The detection of nitrofuran antibiotics and toxic inorganic anions is currently necessary and
challenging because their abuse and/or residuals have caused severe environmental …

Four red photoluminescent europium (III) complexes have been synthesized by using
fluorinated carboxylate ligand, 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1 H-pyrazole-4 …

The first example of a ratiometric Eu/Tb thermometer based on a lanthanide phosphonate is
reported, which presents a temperature dependent emission under 393 nm excitation that …
