The crystal structure, morphology and photoluminescence properties of as-prepared core/shell nanoparticles were in- vestigated by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and fluorescence spectrophotometer. The re- sults showed thatLaF^3＋ Yb^3＋ , Er^3＋ nanoparticles are of hexagonal structure and SiO2 shell is amorphous. The size ofLaF^3＋ Yb^3＋ , Er^3＋. nanoparticles is 13 nm and the LaF^3＋ Yb^3＋ , Er^3＋/SiO2 nanoparticles present clearly a core/shell structure with 12 nm shell thickness. The solubility of LaF^3＋ Yb^3＋ , Er^3＋ nanocrystals in water and the biocompatibility are both improved by the SiO2 shell. The upconversion luminescence spectra suggested that the SiO~ shell has small effect on the upconversion luminescence properties of the LaF^3＋ Yb^3＋ , Er^3＋ nanocrys- tals. The core/shell structure LaF^3＋ Yb^3＋ , Er^3＋ /SiO2. nanopartlcles are expected to be used in biological appli- cations.展开更多

The Cs modification of H3PW12O40（40%）/SiO2 gave the most promising result of 20% dimethyl ether conversion and 34.8% dimethoxymethane selectivity. Dimethoxymethane could be synthe- sized via methoxy groups decomposed from dimethyl ether through the synergistic effect between the acid sites and the redox sites of Cs modified H3PW12O40（40%）/SiO2.展开更多
