Syntheses, crystal structures and photophysical properties of Ag(I) coordination complexes.

Three Ag(I) coordination complexes, [Ag(pyzca)]n (1) (Hpyzca=pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid), Ag[(HNA)(NA)(H2O)4] (2) (HNA=nicotinic acid) and [Ag1Ag2-(2,3-pydc)]n (3) (H2pydc=pyridine-2, 3-dicarboxylic acid) have been synthesized by the hydrothermal method. Their structures are determined by single-crystal X-ray diffractometer. Complex 1 possesses the 3D infinite structure.

A series of Ti(IV)/Ti(III) coordination polymers: structures and surface photoelectric properties.

Three titanium coordination polymers, {[Ti(SO(4))(2)(H(2)O)]·0.5bipy·2H(2)O}(n)1, {[Ti1(SO(4))(2)(H(2)O)]·[Ti2(SO(4))(2)(H(2)O)]·bipy·5H(2)O}(n)2 and [Ti(tea)](n)3 (bipy=4,4'-bipyridine, H(3)tea=triethanolamine) were synthesized and characterized by IR, UV-Vis absorption spectra, TG analysis, X-ray single crystal diffraction and surface photovoltage spectroscopy (SPS). The surface photoelectric properties of titanium coordination polymers were discussed emphatically by the SPS.

Six cobalt complexes, Co(Hz2O)6.H2btec(1); {[Co2(HCOO)6].CH3OH}n(2); {[Co(4,4'-bipy)2(H2O)4].

Syntheses, structures and photophysical properties of tetranuclear Cd-Ln coordination complexes.

Four novel hetero-tetranuclear d-f coordination complexes, [Ln2Cd2(p-toluylate)10(phen)2] (Nd, 1; Pr, 2; Sm, 3) and [Ho2Cd2(p-chloro-benzoate)10(phen)2](4) (phen = 1, 10-phenanthroline), are synthesized by the hydrothermal method, and their structures are studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Structures 1-3 are isomorphous and structure 4 has a similar molecular structure. In the near-infrared (NIR) region or in the visible region, complexes 1-4 show the characteristic emission bands of Ln(III) ions, which are attributed to the sensitization from the ligands and d-block (cadmium-ligand section) to f-block (lanthanide-ligand section).

[Crystal structures and luminescence property of d10 transition metal complexes].

Five Zn( [II)) and Cd(II) coordination complexes, [Zn(NA)2 (H2O)4](1), [Zn(INA)2 (H2O)4](2), [Zn(2,2'-bi-py)2 (SCN)2](3), [Cd(INA)2 (H2O)4](4) and [Cd(phen)2(NO3)](5) (HNA=nicotinic acid, HINA=isonicotinic acid, 2, 2'-bipy=2,2'-bipyridine, phen=1,10-phenanthroline), were synthesized through constant temperature magnetic stirrer or hydrothermal method, and their single-crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction. The authors measured the IR, UV-Vis-NIR and fluorescence spectra of the complexes and analyzed their photophysical properties. At room temperature in the solid state the five complexes can show strong fluorescence, i.

[Structure and photoluminescence of ASnO3 (A = Ca, Sr and Ba) : Eu nanocrystalline].

The present paper reports the photoluminescence properties of nanocrytalline ASnO3 (A = Ca, Sr and Ba) : 1% Eu phosphor synthesized by the Pechini-type sol-gel method. The powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis absorption spectra, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photoluminescence measurements. The experimental results show that BaSnO3 has the ideal cubic peroskite structure, while SrSnO3 and CaSnO3 are both distorted from cubic symmetry by an octahedral tilting distortion.

[Photoluminescence properties of A2SnO4 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba) : Eu nanocrystalline].

Nanosized A2SnO4 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba) : 1% Eu with diameters ranging from 50 to 100 nm were synthesized by complex sol-gel methods. The structures and spectral properties of A2SnO4 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba) : Eu were studied by using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and luminescence spectra. The experimental results show that Ca2SnO4 : 1% Eu exhibits bright red emission at about 615 nm under UV excitation, which makes it a possible good candidate for FED application.

[Photoluminescence properties of nanocrystalline A3(VO4)2:Eu(A = Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba)].

A series of europium doped alkali earth orthovanadates were prepared by Pechini-type sol-gel. The powders were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), infrared spectrum (IR) and photoluminescence (PL). The results of TEM show that high-quality nanopowders with controlled particle size about 50 nm were prepared.

[Spectral studies of nanosized LnVO4:Eu (Ln = La, Gd, Y)].

Nanosized LnVO4:Eu (Ln = La, Gd, Y) with diameters ranging from 20 to 50 nm were synthesized by complex sol-gel technique. The structures and spectral properties of LnVO4:Eu were studied by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform (FT-IR) spectroscopy, luminescence spectra and ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV). The experimental results show that YVO4:Eu and GdVO4:Eu have similar spectral properties because they both have the structure of xenotime, while the structure of LaVO4:Eu belongs to monazite, whose symmetry is inferior to the former vanadates.
