White-light emitting boronate microparticles for potential use as reusable bright chemosensors in water.

چکیده
The facile surface functionalization of surfactant-free organic microparticles composed of polymeric 2,4,8,10-tetraoxa-3,9-diboraspiro[5.5]undecane allowed us to develop white-light emissive chemosensors for the real-time visual detection of Cu(2+) in HEPES buffer (pH 7.0) due to a synergistic response of fluorophores grafted onto the particles. A detection limit of 15.4 ppb for Cu(2+) in aqueous media and excellent recyclability were also observed.

Thermo-responsive white-light emission based on tetraphenylethylene- and rhodamine B-containing boronate nanoparticles.
Boronate nanoparticles with built-in tetraphenylethylene (TPE) have been prepared. Their emissive color tuning by altering the amount of rhodamine B grafted onto the surface gave white-light emissive nanoparticles. They showed reversible and thermo-responsive emission in the temperature range of 5-65 °C in water, which enabled them to serve as a bright nanothermometer.

Spirulina microalgae are a rich source of protein and valuable biological compounds. One of the most important Spirulina microalgae pigments is phycocyanin. Phycocyanin is widely used in industries as a natural blue pigment and it’s also an effective antioxidant. In order to improve phycocyanin production as well as Spirulina growth, by autotrophic cultivation considering that autotrophic culti...

Luminescent metal complexes have found increasing use in multiple areas of science and technology, including in chemosensing, light-emitting devices and photochemistry. In particular, the use of cyclometalated iridium(iii) complexes as chemosensors has received increasing attention in the recent literature. Phosphorescent metal complexes enjoy a number of advantages (e.g., long-lived phosphores...
متن کاملWell-aligned multi-walled carbon nanotubes emitting natural white-light under microwave irradiation.
Low-cost black coating with freestanding well-aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs), fabricated from CNT-dispersive in water-soluble poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) matrix, exhibits a bright white-light emission with narrow-band RGB (red, green, blue) colors having CIE (0.327, 0.349) chromaticity coordinate when subjected to the microwave irradiation.
متن کاملSurface plasmon enhanced super bright InGaN light emitter
We use surface plasmons to increase the light emission efficiency from InGaN/GaN quantum wells by covering these with thin metallic films. Large luminescence enhancements were measured when silver or aluminum layers are deposited 10 nm above an InGaN light emitting layer, whereas no such enhancements are obtained from gold coated samples. The internal quantum efficiencies of quantum wells befor...
