The as-prepared Sr3Gd2(Si3O9)2:Tb^3+ samples showed broad excitation spectrum from 250 to 400 nm and presented characteristic emission transitions ^5D4→^7FJ(J=6, 5, 4, 3) of Tb^3+ under 313 nm excitation, which were located at about 488, 541, 584 and 620 nm. The emission intensities of Tb^3+ rose steadily in Sr3Gd2(Si3O9)2 host with the increase of Tb^3+ concentration even though Gd^3+ ions were completely replaced by Tb^3+ ions. The Ce^3+ ion as a sensitizer could efficiently improve the performance of Tb^3+ ion. First, with Ce^3+ co-doping, the excitation spectrum of Tb^3+ monitored at 541 nm showed a similar band that responds to the violet emission of Ce^3+ monitored at 416 nm. Second, the quantum yields of Sr3Gd2(Si3O9)2:Tb^3+ phosphors could be enhanced from 26.6% to 80.2% by co-doping Ce^3+. Finally, the co-doping of Ce^3+ was also effective to improve the thermal stability of Sr3Gd2(Si3O9)2:Tb^3+. As the temperature rose to 150 oC, the emission intensity of Tb^3+ remained at about 83.6% of that measured at room temperature, which was better than the commercial YAG:Ce phosphor in terms of their thermal quenching properties. These results indicated that the as-prepared Sr3Gd2(Si3O9)2:Tb^3+,Ce^3+ samples could be used as green emission phosphors for possible applications in near ultraviolet based WLEDs.展开更多

The X-ray diffraction data for the crystals were well refined assuming a monoclinic structure with the P21/m space group. Gd1-xEuxOOH (x ≤ 0.2) crystals showed strong red emission, and the highest fluorescence quantum yield (Φf) was 0.27, obtained for x = 0.10. Φf decreased rapidly as the Eu3+ content x increased above 0.2, owing to concentration quenching. Analysis with a percolation model indicated three-dimensional energy transfer between the Eu3+ ions.展开更多

Lanthanide complexes EuxGd1-x(TTA)3phens are synthesized with the ratio of Gd3+ dopant concentration ranging from 10% to 90% to improve the absolute quantum yield. EuxGd1-x(TTA)3phens possess similar infrared and ultraviolet spectra, showing that they have similar molecular structures. The absolute emission quantum yields of EuxGd1-x(TTA)3phens are determined using a fluoromax-4 spectrofluorometer equipped with an integrating sphere. The fluorescence lifetimes of the EuxGd1-x(TTA)3phens are measured in the same experiment. It was found that both absolute quantum yields and fluorescence lifetimes of EuxGd1-x(TTA)3phens are of quasi-periodic variation with the change of the Gd3. dopant concentrations. The absolute quantum efficiency and fluorescence lifetime vary with respect to the Gd content in an opposite fashion, indicating that the rate of energy absorption by the EuxGd1-x(TTA)3phens and the conversion to light energy is critical for the absolute quantum efficiency. The radiative rate constant Kr and non-radiative rate constant Knr are calculated. The dependence of Kr and Knr on the Gd3+ dopant concentrations is very similar to that of absolute quantum efficiency. The radiation rate constant Kr and absolute quantum efficiency have a linear relationship.展开更多

Both compounds are formed by slow evaporation at room temperature and exhibit zero dimensional dinuclear structures. It is worth mentioning that a 4.5-fold enhancement in luminescent quantum yield is achieved by reducing the nonradiative deactivation, through which the quantum yield increases remarkably to 67.62% for 1 compared with 12.18% for 2.展开更多

This research reveals a distinguished property of this quantum generalized measurement: no matter what the system state is prior to the measurement and what the result of the measurement occurs, the state of the system after the measurement can be collapsed into any specified pure state, i.e., the state of quantum system can be deterministically reduced to any specified pure state just by a single QGPM. Subsequently. QGPM can be used to deterministically generate the maximum entangled pure state for quantum systems. We give three concrete theoretic schemes of generating the maximum quantum entangled pure states for two 2-Jevel particles, three 2-level particles and two 3-Jevel particles, respectively.展开更多

The results show that both R(n/p) and R(t/~3He) have strong linear correlations with △R_(np) of different Ca isotopic projectiles from five different centralities. It is suggested that R(n/p) and R(t/~3He), from the same centrality, could be treated as possible experimental observables to extract the neutron skin or halo thickness for neutron-rich isotopic nuclei,including the nuclei near the neutron drip line.展开更多

The re...We review theoretical relations between macroscopic properties of neutron stars and microscopic quantities of nuclear matter, such as consistency of hadronic nuclear models and observed masses of neutron stars. The relativistic hadronic field theory, quantum hadrodynamics (QHD), and mean-field approximations of the theory are applied to saturation properties of symmetric nuclear and neutron matter. The equivalence between mean-field approximations and Hartree approximation is emphasized in terms of renormalized effective masses and effective coupling constants of hadrons. This is important to prove that the direct application of mean-field (Hartree) approximation to nuclear and neutron matter is inadequate to examine physical observables. The equations of state (EOS), binding energies of nuclear matter, self-consistency of nuclear matter, are reviewed, and the result of chiral Hartree-Fock ?approximation is shown. Neutron stars and history of nuclear astrophysics, nuclear model and nuclear matter, possibility of hadron and hadron-quark neutron stars are briefly reviewed. The hadronic models are very useful and practical for understanding astrophysical phenomena, nuclear matter and radiation phenomena of nuclei.展开更多

X-ray diffraction data were well refined using the Rietveld method assuming that the crystals had a monoclinic structre belonging to the P21/m space group. The unit cell volumes of the Gdo.9 xLaxEuo.OOH crystals increased with increasing x, whereas those of Gdo.9-xYxEUo.lOOH decreased with increasing x. The Commission Internationale de IEclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates of Gdo.9 xRxEUo.lOOH (R=Y, La) crystals were located in the red region and were nearly constant over the range ofx values considered. The fluorescence quantum yield Dr monotonically decreased with increasing x regardless of the ionic radii of the substitute ions. The fact that the Dr value of Lao.9EuoAOOH was greater than that of Gdo.gEUo.lOOH indicated that the observed decrease in the values of the Gdo.9-,LaxEuo.1OOH crystals up to x=0.3 could not be attributed to an increase in the distance between Eu3+ ions or to a decrease in the Gd3+ content. The decrease might be due to an increase of killer centers introduced by elemental substitutions with the larger ion.展开更多

The ultrathin PyPS and PyPMMA films with the thickness ranging from 30 nm to 400 nm supported on the quartz slides were prepared by spin-coating. The fluorescent quantum yield(QY) of the pyrene probe in the ultrathin polymer films was investigated by the photoluminescence spectrometer using an integrating sphere detector. The QY decreased with the reduction of film thickness in the sub-200 nm range.展开更多

The experimental results show that the optical full width at half maximum (FWHM) increases relatively rapidly with increasing A1 composition in the AlxGal xN barrier, and increases only slightly with increasing GaN well width. A model considering the interface roughness is used to interpret the experimental results. In the model, the FWHM's broadening caused by the interface roughness is calculated based on the triangle potential well approximation. We find that the calculated results accord with the experimental results well.展开更多

Maximum momentum avoids the problem that the Fermi degenerate pressure blows up since the increase of the Fermi energy is not limited. Applying this equation of state to the Tolman-Oppenheimer Volkoff (TOV) equation, the quantum gravitational effects on the cores of compact stars are discussed. In the center of compact stars, we obtain the singularity-free solution of the metric component, gtt ~-(1 + 0.2185×r^2). By numerically solving the TOV equation, we find that quantum gravity plays an important role in the region r~10^4α0(△x)min. Current observed masses of neutron stars indicate that the dimensionless parameter α0 cannot exceed 10^19.展开更多

The dependence of Kr and Knr on the Gd3+ dopant concentrations is very similar to that of absolute quantum efficiency. The radiation rate constant Kr and absolute quantum efficiency have a linear relationship.

文摘The exploitation of a highly selective and sensitive probe to detect both cancer marker and metal ion is of great importance.In this work,the "one stone two bird" agent of 1,10-phenanthroline(phen) is designed to disrupt the polymeric lanthanide MOFs(LnMOFs,[Ln(CHO_(2))_(3)]n,Ln=Tb,la;Eu,1 b,CHO_(2)=formic acid) {[Ln(CHO_(2))_(4)·(C_(2) H_(8) N)]n,Ln=Y,2 a;Gd,2 b;Dy,2 c,C_(2)H_(8) N=dimethylamine}) into a soluble mononuclear species [Ln(phen)_(2)(NO_(3))_(3),Ln=Tb,3 a;Eu,3 b] as well as to provide an antenna for efficient photons absorption,resulting in an ultra-high luminescence quantum yield(QY,90%) europium complex.The luminescence QY is among the highest record of monomeric(zero-dimensional) lanthanide complexes.Furthermore,mononuclear Tb3+complex(3 a) functions as a multiplex sensor towards both Fe^(2+)and cancer marker of 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid(5-HIAA).Importantly,the limit of detection(LOD)for sensing 5-HIAA is an ultra-sensitive value of 1 × 10 s mol/L,which is even lower than that necessary for the early diagnosis of carcinoid tumors.More interestingly,sensing results in simulated urine reveals that 3 a has potential application for early diagnosis in the clinic.

文摘Long-emission carbon dots(CDs) is triggering immense enthusiasm on account of their intrinsic merits of high chemical stability and excellent optical properties.In this study,a facile and rapid approach was developed for the preparation of barium-doped carbon dots(Ba-CDs) with yellow fluo rescence emission and high quantum yields.Surface chemistry and the chemical architecture of the Ba-CDs was revealed under various spectroscopic methods.This work provides more insights into the effects of charge transfer caused by Ba heteroatoms,which is considered as the most challenging step in the investigation on luminescence mechanism.Remarkably,the prepared Ba-CDs were successfully applied as fluorescent probes in the detection of trace water in organic solvents(ethanol,isopropanol,acetone,tetrahydrofuran).Comparing with traditional fluorescent probes for water detection in organic solvents,Ba-CDs detection provides a more sensitive,much faster and more economical approach.

文摘The luminescent properties of two Eu3+ compounds based on quinoline-2-car- boxylic acid (Hqc), [Na2Eu2(qc)6(CH3COO)2(H2O)4].2DMF (1) and [Eu2(qc)6(H2O)6].3H2O (2), as well as their syntheses and structures are reported. Both compounds are formed by slow evaporation at room temperature and exhibit zero dimensional dinuclear structures. It is worth mentioning that a 4.5-fold enhancement in luminescent quantum yield is achieved by reducing the nonradiative deactivation, through which the quantum yield increases remarkably to 67.62% for 1 compared with 12.18% for 2.

文摘We propose the concept of the quantum generalized projector measurement (QGPM) for finite-dimensional quantum systems by studying the quantum generalized measurement. This research reveals a distinguished property of this quantum generalized measurement: no matter what the system state is prior to the measurement and what the result of the measurement occurs, the state of the system after the measurement can be collapsed into any specified pure state, i.e., the state of quantum system can be deterministically reduced to any specified pure state just by a single QGPM. Subsequently. QGPM can be used to deterministically generate the maximum entangled pure state for quantum systems. We give three concrete theoretic schemes of generating the maximum quantum entangled pure states for two 2-Jevel particles, three 2-level particles and two 3-Jevel particles, respectively.

文摘The yield ratios of neutron/proton(R(n/p)) and ~3H=~3He(R(t/~3He)) with reduced rapidity from 0 to 0.5 are investigated for 50 MeV/u ^(42;44;46;48;50;52;54;56)Ca+^(40)Ca.This was conducted at whole reduced impact parameters using the isospin-dependent quantum-molecular-dynamics model in which the initial neutron and proton densities are sampled within the Skyrme–Hartree–Fock model, using which the neutron skin thickness(△R_(np)) is determined for different neutron-rich Ca isotopes. The results show that both R(n/p) and R(t/~3He) have strong linear correlations with △R_(np) of different Ca isotopic projectiles from five different centralities. It is suggested that R(n/p) and R(t/~3He), from the same centrality, could be treated as possible experimental observables to extract the neutron skin or halo thickness for neutron-rich isotopic nuclei,including the nuclei near the neutron drip line.
文摘We review theoretical relations between macroscopic properties of neutron stars and microscopic quantities of nuclear matter, such as consistency of hadronic nuclear models and observed masses of neutron stars. The relativistic hadronic field theory, quantum hadrodynamics (QHD), and mean-field approximations of the theory are applied to saturation properties of symmetric nuclear and neutron matter. The equivalence between mean-field approximations and Hartree approximation is emphasized in terms of renormalized effective masses and effective coupling constants of hadrons. This is important to prove that the direct application of mean-field (Hartree) approximation to nuclear and neutron matter is inadequate to examine physical observables. The equations of state (EOS), binding energies of nuclear matter, self-consistency of nuclear matter, are reviewed, and the result of chiral Hartree-Fock ?approximation is shown. Neutron stars and history of nuclear astrophysics, nuclear model and nuclear matter, possibility of hadron and hadron-quark neutron stars are briefly reviewed. The hadronic models are very useful and practical for understanding astrophysical phenomena, nuclear matter and radiation phenomena of nuclei.

文摘Probabilistic quantum cloning(PQC) cannot copy a set of linearly dependent quantum states.In this paper,we show that if incorrect copies are allowed to be produced,linearly dependent quantum states may also be cloned by the PQC.By exploiting this kind of PQC to clone a special set of three linearly dependent quantum states,we derive the upper bound of the maximum confidence measure of a set.An explicit transformation of the maximum confidence measure is presented.

文摘Gdo.9xRxEUo.lOOH (R=Y, La) crystals were synthesized by a flux method using a mixture of NaOH and KOH as the flux. X-ray diffraction data were well refined using the Rietveld method assuming that the crystals had a monoclinic structre belonging to the P21/m space group. The unit cell volumes of the Gdo.9 xLaxEuo.OOH crystals increased with increasing x, whereas those of Gdo.9-xYxEUo.lOOH decreased with increasing x. The Commission Internationale de IEclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates of Gdo.9 xRxEUo.lOOH (R=Y, La) crystals were located in the red region and were nearly constant over the range ofx values considered. The fluorescence quantum yield Dr monotonically decreased with increasing x regardless of the ionic radii of the substitute ions. The fact that the Dr value of Lao.9EuoAOOH was greater than that of Gdo.gEUo.lOOH indicated that the observed decrease in the values of the Gdo.9-,LaxEuo.1OOH crystals up to x=0.3 could not be attributed to an increase in the distance between Eu3+ ions or to a decrease in the Gd3+ content. The decrease might be due to an increase of killer centers introduced by elemental substitutions with the larger ion.

文摘The fluorescently labelled polymers including pyrene-labelled polystyrene(PyPS) and pyrene-labelled poly(methyl methacrylate)(PyPMMA) with narrow molecular weight distributions were synthesized by the atom transfer radical copolymerization(ATRCP) of styrene or methyl methacrylate with 1-pyrenemethyl methacrylate(PyMMA). The ultrathin PyPS and PyPMMA films with the thickness ranging from 30 nm to 400 nm supported on the quartz slides were prepared by spin-coating. The fluorescent quantum yield(QY) of the pyrene probe in the ultrathin polymer films was investigated by the photoluminescence spectrometer using an integrating sphere detector. The QY decreased with the reduction of film thickness in the sub-200 nm range.

文摘Low temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurements have been performed for a set of GaN/AlxGal xN quantum wells (QWs). The experimental results show that the optical full width at half maximum (FWHM) increases relatively rapidly with increasing A1 composition in the AlxGal xN barrier, and increases only slightly with increasing GaN well width. A model considering the interface roughness is used to interpret the experimental results. In the model, the FWHM's broadening caused by the interface roughness is calculated based on the triangle potential well approximation. We find that the calculated results accord with the experimental results well.

文摘Based on the generalized uncertainty principle with maximum momentum arid minimal length, we discuss the equation of state of ideal ultra-relativistic Fermi gases at zero temperature. Maximum momentum avoids the problem that the Fermi degenerate pressure blows up since the increase of the Fermi energy is not limited. Applying this equation of state to the Tolman-Oppenheimer Volkoff (TOV) equation, the quantum gravitational effects on the cores of compact stars are discussed. In the center of compact stars, we obtain the singularity-free solution of the metric component, gtt ~-(1 + 0.2185×r^2). By numerically solving the TOV equation, we find that quantum gravity plays an important role in the region r~10^4α0(△x)min. Current observed masses of neutron stars indicate that the dimensionless parameter α0 cannot exceed 10^19.
文摘Theoretical dependence of the quantum yields on the size of Agnano-particle distribution from 0.8 nm to 37 nm embedded in BaOsemiconductor is discussed. The calculation results show that theincrease in Ag nano-particle diameter leads to the increase of thequantum yield threshold and the emergence of the rough Gaussian form,the results also shown that the greater increase in Ag nano-particlediameter causes the emergence of the exact Gaussian form and makesthe peaks rise up.
