In this work, we carry out first-principles calculations on various cases of Ce3＋ centers in Ca3Sc2Si3O12 by considering the effects of the charge com- pensations related to N3-, Sc3＋, Mn2＋, Mg2＋, and Na＋. Firstly, the local structures around Ce3＋ are optimized by using density functional theory calculations with supercell model. The 4f→5d transition energies of Ce3＋ are then obtained from the CASSCF/CASPT2/RASSI-SO calculations performed on Ce3＋-centered embedded clusters. The calculated energies support the previous assignments of the experimental spectra. Especially, a previously unclear peak is identified to be caused by Sc3＋ substituting Si4＋. The results show that the first-principles calculations can be used as an effective tool for predicting and interpreting spectroscopic properties of the phosphors.展开更多

The surface properties and antibacterial activity of Ce/MMTs were also investigated. The chemical compositions of Ce/MMTs were determined, and the cerium of Ce/MMTs was confirmed to be present as trivalent cerium state. The d001 basal spacings of Ce/MMTs were enlarged with the enhancement of the cerium contents, and the particles were formed with irregular shape. On increasing the Ce contents of Ce/MMTs, the special surface areas were decreased, but the total pore volumes and the average pore sizes were increased. The antibacterial activity of Ce/MMTs is increased with increasing the cerium contents, and 1.5 g/L of Ce/MMT-3 containing 11.46wt.% of curium could remove all the Staphylococcus aureus and more than 99.9% of the Escherichia coli within 24.0 h of contact. Moreover, Ce/MMTs displayed bactericidal activity.展开更多

In this work, we evaluated the performance of this new CLYC crystal in terms of its gamma-ray energy resolution and pulse shape discrimination(PSD) capability between neutrons and gamma rays. The decay times associated with different scintillation mechanisms were obtained by fitting decay functions to the neutron and gamma-ray waveform structures. We found an energy resolution of * 4.5% for 662-ke V gamma rays and efficient neutron/gamma PSD with a figure of merit of * 2.6. Under gamma-ray excitation, there is an ultrafast scintillation mechanism in CLYC with a decay time of approximately 2 ns, whereas there is no evidence of ultrafast decay under thermal neutron excitation. This work contributes to the promotion of domestic development of CLYC.展开更多

The influences of both the lanthanide ion （Ce3＋ and Pr3＋） doping concentration and different doping （Ce3＋/pr3＋） ratio on the photoluminescence intensity were systematically investigated. The synthesized （Ce0.6Pr0.4）0.04Y2.96Al5O12 nanoparticles were near spherical nanoclusters with good dispersity and uniform sizes in the range of 50-80 nm for about 85% of the particles. The strongest photoluminescence intensity was observed for the （Ce0.6Pr0.4）0.04Y2.96Al5O12 nanoparticle products.展开更多
