Single-phase phosphors with tunable emission colors are crucial to develop high-performance white light-emitting diodes since they are valuable to improve the energy efficiency, color rendering index, and correlated color temperature. Most of the studies have been conducted to control the spectral shifts via a polyhedral distortion or chemical unit cosubstitution strategy. The combination of host optimization and dopant activator design in a single-phase phosphor system is very rare. Herein, a partial substitution strategy of [Ba-Gd] by [Sr-Lu] has been employed in BaSrGdLuNa(PO)F/5% Eu ( = 0-0.40) phosphors. Also, the energy migration from Eu to Tb ions has been investigated in as-prepared samples. Consequently, the emitted signal is observed to shift from 470 to 575 nm derived from equivalent substitutions, which is attributed to specific performance by the emission profile of Eu, and such results are closely related to splitting of the crystal field and energy transfer among various luminescent centers. Moreover, the tunable yellowish-green emitting material has been assembled by incorporating ion pairs (Eu → Tb) into the BaSrGdLuNa(PO)F, and their relative ratios are varied. The corresponding Eu → Tb energy migration process is assigned to be the dipole-quadrupole interaction by the Inokuti-Hirayama model. This work provides rational guidance for the design and discovery of new products with tunable emission colors, originating from the cosubstitution strategy and energy conversion model.

Dressings are prone to adhering to new tissues, leading to secondary harm to the wound during dressing replacement. To address this issue, many strategies have been proposed to endow dressings with anti-adhesive functions. However, the introduction of exogenous agents or stimuli is always needed, and difficulty in achieving adaptive removal is also present.

Multimode luminescent materials exhibit tunable photon emissions under different excitation or stimuli channels, endowing them high encoding capacity and confidentiality for anti-counterfeiting and encryption. Achieving multimode luminescence into a stable single material presents a promising but remains a challenge. Here, the downshifting/upconversion emissions, color-tuning persistent luminescence (PersL), temperature-dependent multi-color emissions, and hydrochromism are integrated into Er ions doped CsNaYbCl nanocrystals (NCs) by leveraging shallow defect levels and directed energy migration.

Chitosan (CHT) is a known piezoelectric biomacromolecule; however, its usage is limited due to rapid degradation in an aqueous system. Herein, we prepared CHT film via a solvent casting method and cross-linked in an alkaline solution. Sodium hydroxide facilitated deprotonation, leading to increased intramolecular hydrogen bonding and mechanical properties.

In the study of GaN/AlGaN heterostructure thermal transport, the interference of strain on carriers cannot be ignored. Although existing research has mainly focused on the intrinsic electronic and phonon behavior of the materials, there is a lack of studies on the transport characteristics of the electron-phonon coupling in heterostructures under strain control. This research comprehensively applies first-principles calculations and the Boltzmann transport equation simulation method to deeply analyze the thermal transport mechanism of the GaN/AlGaN heterojunction considering in-plane strain, with particular attention to the regulatory role of electron-phonon coupling on thermal transport.

Sodium-metal batteries (SMBs) using solid-state polymer electrolytes (SPEs) show impressive superiority in energy density and safety. As promising candidates for SPEs, solid-state plastic crystal electrolytes (SPCE) based on succinonitrile (SN) plastic crystal could achieve high ion conductivity and wide voltage window. Nonetheless, the notorious SN decomposition reaction on the electrode/electrolyte interface seriously challenges the stable operation of the battery.
