Eu3+-doped REVO4 nanphosphors were controllably synthesized by an EDTA-mediated hydrothermal method at 180 degrees C using RE(NO3)3 and Na3VO4 as precursors. The obtained products were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). The XRD results showed that the products were pure tetragonal structure and no other impurity phase appeared. The PL studies demonstrated Eu3+ ions doping effectively enhanced luminescent properties of LaxRE(1-x)VO4 and YxRE(1-x)VO4 nanoparticles, but EU3+ ions doping did not enhance luminescent properties of CexRE(1-x)VO4 (x not equal 0) nanoparticles. The prepared phosphors showed well-defined red luminescence due to radiative transitions from 5D0 to 7F(J) (J = 1,2) levels of Eu3+ ions, respectively. Furthermore, we reported Eu3+-doped CexRE(1-x)VO4 (x not equal 0) phases represented a new class of optically inactive materials.

This article studies the synthesis, as well as the structural, vibrational, and optical properties of Eu-doped ZnO quantum dots (QDs) and investigates the energy transfer mechanism from the ZnO host to Eu ions using Reisfeld's approximation. Eu-doped ZnO QDs at varying concentrations (0-7%) were successfully prepared using a wet chemical method. The successful doping of Eu ions into the ZnO host lattice, as well as the composition and valence states of the elements present in the sample, were confirmed through X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses.

In the present research work, a solid-state reaction method was employed to synthesize a series of CaGdSbWO:SmEu (x = 1, 1.5, 2, 3 and 4 mol%) phosphors. The phase purity, crystallinity, morphological and compositional studies were analysed via X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging, and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis.

The judicious selection and combination of multicomponents provide great potential for the further exploration of new polyoxometalate (POM) materials. Here, a delicate control on tungstate, Sb and Bi sources, Eu ions, and organic molecules led to the discovery of a novel multimetal cluster-embedded POM [HN(CH)]NaH{[Eu(HO)SbBiWO](SbWO)(SbWO)}·78HO (). The polyoxoanion of was constructed from four in situ-formed [SbWO] and [SbWO] building blocks connected by two hexa-metallic [Eu(HO)SbBiWO] clusters, to be a rare member of Sb- and Bi-coexisting POM.

Herein, a novel zinc-organic gel with self-catalysis-enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) performance was prepared as an emitter for the first time to assemble a biosensor for ultrasensitive detection of microRNA-221 (miR-221) related to liver cancer. Interestingly, Zn served as a central ion to coordinate with multidentate ligands 2,4,6-tris(4-carboxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine (TATB) at room temperature to form Zn-TATB-MOGs with excellent ECL intensity. More importantly, compared to metal ions (e.
