Engineering a single material with multidirectional applications is crucial for improving productivity, low cost, flexibility, least power consumption, etc. To achieve these requirements, novel design structures and high-performance materials are in urgent need. Lanthanide-doped nanophosphors have the greatest strengths and ability in order to tune their applications in various dimensions.

In our study we aim to compare the results of injecting steroid and lignocaine mixture via single injection and peppered injection technique and analyse the outcome in each category.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAggregation-induced emission based organic heterocyclic luminogens bearing conjugated electronic structures showed much attention due to its excellent fluorescence in aggregation state. In this communication, a novel conjugated blue light emitting imidazole molecule is synthesized by one pot multicomponent reaction route is reported for the first time. The prepared molecule exhibits a strong fluorescence in aggregation state with exceptional properties, such as high purity, inexpensive, eco-friendly, large scale production, high photostability, etc.

Herein, fabrication of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) functionalized GdO:Eu (5 mol %) nanopowders dispersed in a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) matrix for long term preservation and visualization of latent fingerprints, as well as printing. Efficient intramolecular energy transfers from coordinated ligand to the doped Eu ions, called the antenna effect was precisely organized by grafting organic molecule, resultant to an enhanced photoluminescence emission.

Powder X-ray diffraction results showed mechanofluorochromic properties of IMD FTs are easily reversible under external force due to the decrease in crystallinity. These IMD FTs also exhibits strong cyan-blue luminescence in solid state with high quantum efficiency.
