Novel Strategy for Designing Photochromic Ceramic: Reversible Upconversion Luminescence Modification and Optical Information Storage Application in the PbWO:Yb, Er Photochromic Ceramic.

Inorganic photochromic material is an available medium to obtain optical information storage. The photochromic property of the inorganic material is mainly from the defects of the host. However, the formation of defects in the host is uncontrollable, in particular, the revisable formation and removement of defects are difficult.

Soil heavy metal pollution and risk assessment in Shenyang industrial district, Northeast China.

To investigate the soil heavy metal pollution characteristics and ecological risk factors, 42 samples and six typical soil profiles were collected from the Shenyang industrial district in northeast China and were analyzed for contents of titanium (Ti), copper (Cu), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), chromium (Cr) and arsenic (As). Through statistical analysis, it was found that the mean concentrations were higher than their background values (Ti = 4.77>3.
