Novel Pt/La1−xBixOF/SBA-16 catalysts for liquid-phase phenol oxidation

Novel catalysts of Pt/La_1−xBi_xOF/SBA-16 (SBA-16: Santa Barbara Amorphous No. 16) were synthesized, and their catalytic activities for phenol decomposition in the liquid phase were investigated. Lanthanum oxyfluoride (LaOF) was selected as the promoter due to its contribution to the smooth migration of oxygen species in the lattice and the acceleration of phenol adsorption on the catalyst surface. Reducible Bi³⁺ ions were introduced in the LaOF lattice to provide oxygen supply ability to LaOF. Among the prepared catalysts, the highest activity was obtained for the 7 wt% Pt/16 wt% La_0.99Bi_0.01OF/SBA-16 catalyst, which could remove 97% of phenol after 5 h of reaction at 80°C in an open-air atmosphere.     

Behavior of Ruthenium in Fluoride-Volatility Processes, (VI)

Hydrogen gas evolution from water dispersing nanoparticles induced by ⁶⁰Co γ-ray irradiation was studied. Nanoparticles of TiO₂ and Al_2O3 with average sizes of 7–33 nm supplied from several suppliers were examined. It was indicated that reactions enhancing the hydrogen evolution proceed on particle's surface. It was implied that the yield depends on size of agglomerated particle regardless of their primary particle size and chemical species. Reactions that enhance the hydrogen yields were discussed, and radiolysis process was concluded dominant in the total enhancement mechanism.     

Research on Up-Conversion Mechanism in Er3+/Yb3+-Codoped Oxyfluoride Glass

Er3 /Yb3 -codoped oxyfluoride crystallite glass was prepared with melting technique. The compositions and the melting temperature and the annealing temperature of the rare earth-doped crystallite glass were studied in detail. The emission spectra of samples were measured with the Hitachi F-4500 fluorescent photometer pumped by 980 nm wavelength laser. The up-conversion luminescence mechanism was illuminated on the view of the photophysics. By measuring the relationship between luminescent intensity and pump power, it is confirmed that the emission peaks at 550 nm belong to two-photon process, while that at 665 nm belongs to three-photon process. Moreover, the distributions of crystalline were determined by SEM.     

Enhanced near-infrared to green upconversion from Er3+-doped oxyfluoride glass and glass ceramics containing BaGdF5 nanocrystals

In this work, effect of glass composition as well as ceramization on visible and near-infrared (NIR) luminescence properties along with their decay dynamics of Er³⁺ ions has been compared considering two different oxyfluoride glasses yielding BaF₂ and BaGdF₅ nanocrystals. Both the glass systems have exhibited an intense normal and upconversion green emission under ultraviolet (378 nm) and NIR (978 nm) excitations, respectively. A remarkable enhancement of these emission intensities is observed for gadolinium-(Gd) containing glasses. Interestingly, NIR fluorescence intensity from Er³⁺ ions at 1540 nm has showed marginal decrease in gadolinium-containing glass which is attributed to occurrence of strong excited-state absorption (ESA) due to higher fluorine content ensuing an augmentation of upconversion green emission with a concomitant decrease in NIR emission. The quadratic dependence of upconversion green emission intensity on its pump power for all the samples revealed biphotonic absorption process from ground-state ⁴I_15/2 to the excited-state ⁴I_11/2 followed by ESA of second photon to the ⁴F_7/2 level. The intense green upconversion emission as well as enhanced NIR fluorescence lifetimes indicate the suitability of these glass/glass ceramics for upconversion lasers and amplification in the third telecom window.

Er3+掺杂氧氟锗硅酸盐玻璃的频率上转换研究

研究了基质玻璃成分对Er^3 掺杂氧氟锗硅酸盐玻璃上转换光谱和Raman光谱的影响,分析了氧氟锗硅酸盐玻璃中Er^3 的上转换发光机理。结果表明：通过975nm的激光二极管激发,在室温下同时观察到强烈的绿光(529,545nm)和红光(657nm)发射,分别是由于Er^3 的。H11/2→^4I15/2,^4S3/2→^4I15/2,和^4F9/2→^4I15/2跃迁,且均为双光子吸收过程。与545nm的绿光发射相比,657nm的红光发光强度比较微弱。随GeO2浓度的增加,基质玻璃的最大声子能量下降,导致无辐射跃迁几率降低,因此绿光和红光的发光强度都增强,但是其对绿光的影响大于红光。     

Spectroscopic investigations on Er3+/Yb3+-doped oxyfluoride glass ceramics containing YOF nanocrystals

Spectroscopic properties of Er3+/Yb3+-doped transparent oxyfluoride borosilicate glass ceramics containing YOF nanocrystals were systematically investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the formation of YOF nanocrystals in the glassy matrix. Based on the Judd-Ofelt theory, the intensity parameters Ωi (i=2, 4, 6), spontaneous emission probability, radiative lifetime, radiative quantum efficiency and the effective emission bandwidth were investigated. The upconversion luminescence intensity of Er3+ ions in the glass ceramics increased significantly with the increasing crystallization temperature. The transition mechanisms of the green and red upconversion luminescence were ascribed to a two-photon process, and the blue upconversion luminescence was a three-photon absorption process.

Intense upconversion luminescence of Er3+/Yb3+ codoped oxyfluoride borosilicate glass ceramics containing Ba2GdF7 nanocrystals

Er3+/Yb3+-codoped transparent oxyfluoride borosilicate glass ceramics containing Ba2GdF7 nanocrystals were prepared and spectroscopic properties of rare earth ions were investigated.Fluoride nanocrystals Ba2GdF7 were successfully precipitated in glass matrix,which was confirmed by X-ray diffraction(XRD)and transmission electron microscopy(TEM)results.In comparison with the as-made precursor,significant enhancement ofupconversion luminescence was observed in the Er3+/Yb3+codoped oxyfluoride glass ceramics,which may be due to the variation of coordination environment around Er3+and Yb3+ions after crystallization.The transition mechanisms of the green and red upconversion luminescence were ascribed to a two-photon process,and that of the blue upconversion luminescence was a three-photon process.
