Powder X-ray diffraction patterns were employed to confirm phase pttrity. Ca14Mg2（SiO4）8：Eu3＋ phosphors exhibited intense red emission under 394 nm excitation and Ca14Mg2（SiO4）8：Sm3＋ phosphors, excited at 405 nm, also showed strong red emitting at 602 nm. The concentration quenching mechanism of Cal4Mg2（SiOa）s：Eu3＋ was dipole-dipole interaction, while that of CalnMg2（SiOn）8：Sm3＋ was energy migration among nearest neighbor ions. The results indicated that Ca14Mg2（SiOn）8：Eu3＋ and Ca14Mg2（SiOn）s：Sm3＋ were promising red-emitting phosphors for WLEDs. Meanwhile, the effect of co-doping Sm3＋ ions on photoluminescence properties of CalaMg2（SiO4）s：Eu3＋ was studied and energy transfer from Sm3＋ to Eu3＋ was discovered in Eu3＋, Sm3＋ co-doped phosphors.展开更多

Methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and live-dead staining were performed to evaluate the viability and proliferation of rat ASCs. Osteogenic differentiation of rat ASCs were assayed by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and ALP activity test. The expression of osteogenic marker genes (alkaline phosphatase (ALP), runt related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), collagen type Iα1 (Col1α1), secreted phosphoprotein1 (Spp1, osteopontin), integrin binding sialoprotein (Ibsp), bone gla protein (Bglap)) were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The MTT assay and the live-dead staining showed that all the three ceramics possessed good cytocompatibility with rat ASCs. Furthermore, forsterite and clinoenstatite promoted the proliferation of rat ASCs compared with β-TCP. The results of the ALP activity test and the real-time PCR demonstrated that forsterite and clinoenstatite promoted the osteogenic differentiation of rat ASCs. These results suggested that forsterite and clinoenstatite are bioactive ceramics that may be used for preparation of bone tissue engineering (BTE) scaffolds.展开更多

The results predict the following sequence of18O-enrichment:pyroxene (Mg, Fe, Ca)2Si2O6>olivine (Mg, Fe)2SiO4 > spinel (Mg, Fe)2SiO4> ilmenite (Mg, Fe, Ca) SiO3>perovskite (Mg, Fe, Ca) SiO3. The calculated fractionations for the calcite-perovskite (CaTiO3) System are in excellent agreement with the experimental calibrations. If there would be complete isotopic equilibration in the mantle, the spinel-structured silicates in the transition zone are predicted to be enriched in18O relative to the perovskite-structured silicates in the lower mantle but depleted in18O relative to olivines and pyroxenes in the upper mantle. The oxygen isotope layering of the mantle might result from differences in the chemical composition and crystal structure of mineral phases at different mantle depths. Assuming isotopic equilibrium on a whole earth scale, the chemical structure of the Earth’s interior can be described by the following sequence of18O-enrichment:upper crust>lower crust>upper mantle>transition zone>lower mantle>core.展开更多
