In this paper, we report the synthesis of tin oxide (SnO2) nanoparticles by co-precipitation technique. The structural, surface morphology, thermal and optical properties of the SnO2 samples were analysed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectrum, thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA/DT...

We have studied the luminescence property of CaMoO4:Eu(3+). The emission peaks at 590 ((5)D0→(7)F1) and 613 nm ((5)D0→(7)F2) for Eu(3+) are observed after excitation at 266 nm (i.e. Mo-O charge transfer band). The peak intensity of the latter dominates over the former indicating an asymmetric environment of Eu(3+) in EuO8 polyhedron or parity mixing. Luminescence intensity increases significant...

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of semen storage on ferrous ion induced luminescence of boar spermatozoa and to determine the relationship between parameters of this luminescence and lipid peroxidation as measured by malondialdehyde (MDA) contents. Boar semen samples were diluted in Biosolwens extender and stored for 12 days at 15 degrees C. Luminescence and MDA were measured di...

Quadratic rotation-orthogonal composite experimental design was applied in this experiment to analyze the ultraweak luminescence property of osmanthus tree seedings affected by multilateral growth environmental factors. The influence models of four factors on luminescence were established including illumination, temperature, humidity, and moisture. The ANOVA (analysis of variance) analysis show...

We prepared four Er3+-Yb3+ co-doped oxyfluoride precursor glass (PG) samples with the same chemical composition at different melt-homogenization temperatures (Thomo), respectively, melt-quenching rate. investigated effect of Thomo and heat-treatment (HT) on crystallization, structure, optical properties samples. The results show that structural heterogeneity in PG sample increases lowering Thom...

We have conducted a systematic study of the bandedge and infrared luminescence properties of Er-implanted GaN thin films. The GaN films, grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition, were co-implanted with Er and O ions. After implantation, the implanted samples were furnace annealed at temperatures up to 1100°C. Following annealing, the samples were examined for both bandedge luminescence a...

Rapid, multiplexed, sensitive and specific identification and quantitative detection of nitric oxide (NO) are in great demand in biomedical science. Herein, a novel multifunctional probe based on the intramolecular LRET (luminescence resonance energy transfer) strategy, TRP-NO, was designed for the highly sensitive and selective ratiometric and luminescence lifetime detection of lysosomal NO. B...
