Effects of Y(Ⅲ) Ions on the Fluorescence Properties of Ce(Ⅲ) Ion and the Organic Ligands in the Complex

The enhancement effects of Y ( Ⅲ) ions on the fluorescence of Ce ( Ⅲ) in Ce ( Ⅲ)-Y ( Ⅲ)-PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate ) or Ce ( Ⅲ)-Y ( Ⅲ)-PVC (polyvinyl chloride ) complex systems were observed. The influence of Y ( Ⅲ) ions on the emission spectra of PMMA ligands in PMMA-Y ( Ⅲ) and the fluorescent enhance- ment of Y( Ⅲ) on Ce( Ⅲ) emission in PMMA-Ce-Y by Y( Ⅲ) ion were studied. It was also of interest to note that when Y ( Ⅲ) ions were added into PMMA and into bpy(bipyridine ) , respectively , the emission spectrum of PMMA ligands was split into fine structure bands by Y ( Ⅲ) , and the fluorescence intensities of bpy ligands in bpy-Y ( Ⅲ) complexes were considerably increased.

Compact and robust dual-color linearly polarized illumination source for three-photon fluorescence imaging

The miniaturized femtosecond laser in near infrared-Ⅱregion is the core equipment of threephoton microscopy.In this paper,we design a compact and robust illumination source that emits dual-color linearly polarized light for three-photon microscopy.Based on an all-polarizationmaintaining passive mode-locked fiber laser,we shift the center wavelength of the pulses to the 1.7m band utilizing cascade Raman effect,thereby generate dual-wavelength pulses.To enhance clarity,the two wavelengths are separated through the graded-index multimode fiber.Then we obtain the dual-pulse sequences with 1639.4 nm and 1683.7 nm wavelengths,920 fs pulse duration,and 23.75 MHz pulse repetition rate.The average power of the signal is 53.64mW,corresponding to a single pulse energy of 2.25 nJ.This illumination source can be further amplified and compressed for three-photon fluorescence imaging,especially dual-color three-photon fluorescence imaging,making it an ideal option for biomedical applications.

Effects of water chemistry and concentrations of dissolved organic matter on its fluorescence characteristics and molecular conformation

Previous studies showed that water chemistry and concentrations of dissolved organic matter (DOM) could affect its molecular conformation and binding characteristics with hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs). However, the conformational change of DOM resultant from water chemistry and concentrations of DOM was not extensively investigated; therefore, the contradictory reports regarding the binding property with HOCs were available in literature. In this study, the effects of ionic strength, pH and DOM concentrations on the fluorescence properties of two humic acids (HA), namely Fluka HA and Amherst HA, were investigated by three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix fluorescence spectroscopy (3DEEM) and steady-state fluorescence polarization (FP) techniques. The results not only corroborated previous observations obtained by other investigators, but revealed some new information about the fluorescence properties and molecular conformation of the humic acids under different water chemistry and DOM concentration conditions, which could shed light on its binding mechanisms and binding properties with HOCs.

Influence enhancement effect of bi-frequency ultrasonic irradiation by TA fluorescence method

Based on a previous research of cavitation effect under bi-frequency ultrasound irradiation, this paper studies bi-frequency irradiations with similar experimental settings. The additional irradiation sources with frequencies of 1.04MHz, 0.8MHz and 1.7MHz are individually combined with the main ultrasonic irradiation source with frequency of 28kHz to form bi-frequency ultrasonic irradiation. The intensity of 28kHz irradiation was fixed at 12.5W/cm^2, while the intensity of the ultrasound at the other three frequencies is varied from1 W/cm^2 to 18 W/cm^2. It turns out that under the influence of the bi-frequency irradiation, the fluorescence intensity is obviously greater than the sum of those at individual frequencies. So the frequency of the additional sonication strikingly influences the fluorescence enhancement effect. For example, the fluorescence enhancement effect of 1.04MHz is stronger than that of 1.7MHz, and the enhancement effect of 0.8MHz is further stronger than that of 1.04MHz. Under the sonic intensity of (7.9)W/cm^2, the fluorescence intensity of 1.04MHz is approximately twice that of 1.7MHz while the fluorescence intensity of 0.8MHz is approximately 1.5 times that of 1.04MHz.

The effects of nutrients on the fluorescence characteristics and biochemical composition of marine diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana 3H in light and dark cycles were investigated with continuous culture. The results show that with the increase of nutrient deficiency, the ratio of enhanced fluorescence to fluorescence (Fd/F), cellular chloropyll-a and protein content of the algae decline, but the fluorescence yield (F/Chl) , DCMU enhanced fluorescence yield (Fd/Chl) , cellular carbohydrate content, carbohydrate/Chl, protein/Chl, carbohydrate/protein increase. The changing amplitude of each parameter is different at different nutrition status, sampling time and different light intensity.

Preparation of multicolor carbon dots with thermally turn-on fluorescence for multidimensional information encryption

Carbon dots(CDs)with superior fluorescence properties have attracted a growing number of research interests in anti-counterfeiting.However,the preparation of CDs with thermally turn-on fluorescence and full-color-emitting in visible spectrum is still a big challenge due to the complicated reaction mechanism in the formation of CDs.Here,a simple precursor-oriented strategy for the preparation of multicolor CDs with heat-stimuli turn-on fluorescence is reported.Comprehensive experimental characterizations and theoretical calculations revealed that the emission wavelength of CDs can be readily tuned from 460 nm to 654 nm with selected precursors,which was ascribed to the extent of conjugated sp2-domains(core states)and the amount of oxygen-and nitrogen-containing groups bound to sp2-domains(surface states).After simply mixing two or three kinds of CDs,a full-color range of fluorescence emission was realized,and the CDs-based fluorescence inks were successfully fabricated.Particularly,all the printed patterns from the inkjet exhibited a thermal-induced enhancement in fluorescence.On this basis,combining CDs with heating-induced“turn-off”fluorescence materials can lead to multidimensional and multistage encryption.These results demonstrate that the thermochromic and photochromic CDs with much more enhanced security exhibit promising application in data storage and encryption.

Quantitative energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis for unknown samples using full-spectrum least-squares regression

The full-spectrum least-squares(FSLS) method is introduced to perform quantitative energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis for unknown solid samples.Based on the conventional least-squares principle, this spectrum evaluation method is able to obtain the background-corrected and interference-free net peaks, which is significant for quantization analyses. A variety of analytical parameters and functions to describe the features of the fluorescence spectra of pure elements are used and established, such as the mass absorption coefficient, the Gi factor, and fundamental fluorescence formulas. The FSLS iterative program was compiled in the C language. The content of each component should reach the convergence criterion at the end of the calculations. After a basic theory analysis and experimental preparation, 13 national standard soil samples were detected using a spectrometer to test the feasibility of using the algorithm. The results show that the calculated contents of Ti, Fe, Ni, Cu, and Zn have the same changing tendency as the corresponding standard content in the 13 reference samples. Accuracies of 0.35% and 14.03% are obtained, respectively, for Fe and Ti, whose standard concentrations are 8.82% and 0.578%, respectively. However, the calculated results of trace elements (only tens of lg/g) deviate from the standard values. This may be because of measurement accuracy and mutual effects between the elements.

EPR Effect of Amphiphilic Copolymer Micelles Observed by Fluorescent Imaging

Enhanced permeation and retention（EPR） targeting effect of rhodamine B labeled PEG-b-P（LA-co-DHP） [PEG：poly（ethylene glycol）;LA：L-lactide;DHP：2,2-dihydroxylmethyl-propylene carbonate] micelles（RhB-micelles） was observed in H22 liver cancer bearing mice.The RhB-micelles were prepared by conjugating rhodamine B with the DHP units of amphiphilic block copolymer PEG-b-P（LA-co-DHP） followed by subsequent self-assembling of the conjugate.The parent copolymer PEG-b-P（LA-co-DHP） was synthesized by ring-opening copolymerization of LA and DHP with PEG as macroinitiator and diethyl zinc（ZnEt2） as catalyst.The micelles have a spherical shape and the average diameter is ca.50 nm by TEM（transmission electron microscope） or 80 nm by DLS（dynamic light scattering）.Their in vitro cell uptake experiment by CLSM（confocal laser scanning microscopy） and flow cytometry showed preferential internalization of micelles by MCF-7 human breast cancer cells to free RhB.The in vivo tests by live animal imaging and ex vivo excised organ imaging showed that after vena tail injection,free RhB molecules were distributed in the whole body through the circulation system and then gradually metabolized and excreted and there was no preferential partition in tumor bed from the beginning to the end.But the RhB-micelles were preferentially distributed to the tumor bed so that their concentration（fluorescent intensity） in tumor bed got the level of the liver at a certain time point between 1 and 6 h and reached a maximum relative intensity at around 12 h,indicating an obvious EPR effect of RhB-micelles in H22 liver cancer.

Fluorescence and Photosensitizing Behavior of N-(p-Phenoxyphenyl)methacrylamide and Its Polymer

A novel acrylic monomer bearing aromatic ethereality group N-(p -phenoxy-phenyl) methacrylamide(MAPOA) was synthesized and polymerized. The fluorescence spectra of MAPOA and its polymer were studied, showing that the polymer displays a stronger fluorescence than its monomer at the same chromophore concentration. The fluorescence of P(MAPOA) was quenched by adding electron deficiency monomers such as MMA, AN etc .. It is another example of showing the 'fluorescence structural self-quenching effect' as we reported previously, from which it is demonstrated again that this phenomenon is not an accidental one but a common effect for acrylic monomers bearing electon-donating chromophores. The photopolymerization of AN sensitized by MAPOA and P(MAPOA) was studied. The kinetic equation of the polymerization was obtained and represented as follows: R _p∝ 0.38 × 0.78 , R _p∝ 0.33 × 0.71 The overall activation energies were determined to be E_ a =24\^22 kJ/mol(MAPOA) and E_ a =26\^31 kJ/mol respectively. The fluorescence analysis of the resulted P(AN) showed that the sensitizer also entered into the P(AN) chains. A mechanism of the formation of a charge transfer complex and free radical initiation was suggested for the photopolymerization of AN sensitized by MAPOA and P(MAPOA).

Solvent-Induced Symmetry-Breaking Charge Transfer in an Octupolar Triphenylamine Derivative Resolved with Transient Fluorescence Spectroscopy

The excited-state symmetry-breaking charge transfer (SBCT) dynamics in quadrupolar or octupolar molecules without clear infrared markers is usually hard to be tracked directly. In this work, on the basis of the evolution of instantaneous emission dipole moment obtained by femtosecond transient fluorescence spectroscopy, we presented a real-time characterization of the solvent-induced SBCT dynamics in an octupolar triphenylamine derivative. While the emission dipole moment of the octupolar trimer in weakly polar toluene changes little during the excited-state relaxation, it exhibits a fast reduction in a few picoseconds in strongly polar tetrahydrofuran. In comparison with the uorescence dynamics of dipolar monomer, we deduced that the emitting state of the octupolar trimer in strongly polar solvent, which undergoes solvent-induced structural uctuation, changes from exciton-coupled octupolar to excitation localized dipolar symmetry. In weakly polar solvent, the octupolar symmetry of the trimer is largely preserved during the solvation stabilization.

Dual-parameter Correlation Analysis of the Fluorescence Data of 1-Methyl-2-formyl-5-substituted Pyrrole(4-nitrophenyl)hydrazones

By using 1-methyl-2-formyl-5 -Y-substituted pyrrole (4-nitrophenyl)hydrazones as a model for nitrogen-containing heterocyclic aromatic compounds, the emission wavelength [lambda(max(em))] values df their fluorescence spectra have been measured. Correlation results show that the Delta E-em values are mainly affected by polar effects, but spin-delocalizatin effects also exist.

High-performance vertical GaN field-effect transistor with an integrated self-adapted channel diode for reverse conduction

A vertical GaN field-effect transistor with an integrated self-adapted channel diode(CD-FET)is proposed to improve the reverse conduction performance.It features a channel diode(CD)formed between a trench source on the insulator and a P-type barrier layer(PBL),together with a P-shield layer under the trench gate.At forward conduction,the CD is pinched off due to depletion effects caused by both the PBL and the metal-insulator-semiconductor structure from the trench source,without influencing the on-state characteristic of the CD-FET.At reverse conduction,the depletion region narrows and thus the CD turns on to achieve a very low turn-on voltage(V_(F)),preventing the inherent body diode from turning on.Meanwhile,the PBL and P-shield layer can modulate the electric field distribution to improve the off-state breakdown voltage(BV).Moreover,the P-shield not only shields the gate from a high electric field but also transforms part of C_(GD)to CGS so as to significantly reduce the gate charge(Q_(GD)),leading to a low switching loss(E_(switch)).Consequently,the proposed CD-FET achieves a low V_(F)of 1.65 V and a high BV of 1446 V,and V_(F),Q_(GD)and E_(switch)of the CD-FET are decreased by 49%,55%and 80%,respectively,compared with those of a conventional metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor(MOSFET).

不同淹没水深下菹草对强辐射的响应

春末夏初菹草大批衰亡的原因一直是水体生态修复关注重点,强辐射被认为是最为重要的因素。为研究不同淹没水深下菹草对强辐射的抵御能力,通过模拟强辐射方式,用透明渔网将植株压迫至水下相应位置(10、20、30 cm),分别测定菹草形态、叶绿素质量分数及叶绿素荧光参数等变化,并与对照组(未压迫)比较。结果表明,压迫至水下20 cm处的植株在株高、叶面积、鲜物质量,以及叶绿素质量分数等指标均高于其他深度处理组,对照组各项指标最低;水下20 cm组PSⅡ中心活性最强,受强辐射中UV-B伤害最小,而对照组及水下10 cm处理组,受UV-B辐射后,其PSⅡ反应中心遭到破坏或可逆性失活,光能转换效率、光能传递能率以及电子传递速率下降;水下30 cm处理组,虽PSⅡ反应中心未遭到伤害,因光合有效辐射衰减,植株生长各项指标不及20 cm组。辐射对所有监测指标均有极显著影响,大部分指标同时受水深因素影响;株高、节间距、叶绿素质量分数及Fv/Fm、ϕPSⅡ、qP还受两者交互影响。该试验中,水下20 cm既可抵御有害辐射,光合有效辐射也能满足植株生长。因此,利用水体自身屏蔽作用,通过压迫方式可有效削减强辐射中有害辐射对菹草的伤害,是一种简单易行的方式,在自然水体中可参考UV-B生物有效光学深度来确定压迫深度。
