The absorption spectrum and fluorescence spectrum of this glass were measured and analyzed. By using J-O theory, the oscillator strengths for some absorption transitions were calculated according to the absorption spectra. The intensity parameters Ω1 (t = 2, 4, 6) of Dy^3+ were determined by using a least-squares fitting approach, and the values are 4.04 × 10^-20, 1.30 × 10^-20 and 1.82 × 10^-20 cm, respectively. The root-mean-square deviation δrma was calculated. Under UV light excitation, Dy^3+-doped borate glasses (LBLB) emit intense yellowish white lights. The excitation spectrum indicates that argon laser is the effective excitation source in Dy^3+-doped LBLB glasses展开更多

The properties of the Cr-doped Li3V2(PO4)3 were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopic (SEM), and electrochemical measurements Results show that the Cr-doped Li3V2(PO4)3 has the same monoclinic structure as the undoped Li3V2(PO4)3, and the particle size of Cr-doped Li3V2(PO4)3 is smaller than that of the undoped Li3V2(PO4)3 and the smallest particle size is only about 1 1μm. The Cr-doped Li3V2(PO4)3 samples were investigated on the Li extraction/insertion performances through charge/discharge, cyclic voltammogram (CV), and electrochemical impedance spectra(EIS). The optimal doping content of Cr was that x=0.04 in the Li3V2-xCrx(PO4)3 samples to achieve high discharge capacity and good cyclic stability. The electrode reaction reversibility was enhanced, and the charge transfer resistance was decreased through the Cr-doping. The improved electrochemical performances of the Cr-doped Li3V2(PO4)3 cathode materials are attributed to the addition of Cr^3+ ion by stabilizing the monoclinic structure.展开更多

The metallic ion doped TiO2 was thoroughly characterized with XRD and UV-vis, and the photocatalytic activity was evaluated by degrading methylene blue (MB) solution. The results indicated that TiO2 crystalline size was reduced and phase transformation of anatase to rutile was suppressed as the content of doped Nd3+ ion increased in the co-doped TiO2. The UV-vis spectra of co-doped TiO2 seemed to simply overlay two spectra of single metal doped TiO2, and had significantly increased absorbance in the ranges of 400~500 nm, 565~600 nm and 730~765 nm as compared to pure TiO2. The photocatalytic activity of co-doped TiO2 was obviously enhanced, and raised about 30% compared to that of pure TiO2 as doped Nd3+ content was 0.15% and Fe3+ content was 0.05%, respectively. The enhanced catalytic activity was attributed to a synergistic effect of two doped ions, where doped Fe3+ ion inhibited the recombination of photogenerated electron and hole, and Nd3+ ion brought more surface carboxyl to promote the degradation reaction.展开更多
