Oxides are physically and chemically stable. Non-contact thermometer-Yb-Er ions co-doped solid solution (YIn)O, is prepared by the regular solid method. The structural results obtained by XRD indicate that a pure phase solid solution (YIn)O has been obtained. The solid solution (YIn)O has a similar crystal structure, especially YO and InO with the same space group (3̄). Green emission from 500 to 600 nm is due to Er 4f-4f transitions: S → I at 567 nm and H → I at 528 nm. Red emissions from 630 to 720 nm are attributed to Er: F → I. UC luminescence changes greatly with laser diode power and Er and Yb content. Furthermore, the two-photon process is confirmed to be dominant between Yb and Er in oxide solid solution (YIn)O. Optical temperature sensitivity is also investigated systematically in order to explore the application of the oxide solid solution (YIn)O. The temperature-dependent green fluorescence at 528 and 567 nm was investigated with the range of 313-573 K. 0.316% K is the maximum absolute sensitivity at 503 K, which is higher than most Yb/Er co-doped systems. In addition, the solid solution (YIn)O:Yb,Er has better thermal stability and stronger UC emission than a simple substance with excellent temperature sensing performance. It indicates that Yb-Er ions co-doped (YIn)O solid solution is a good candidate for optical temperature sensing.

Time-Domain Bound States in the Continuum.

Phys Rev Lett

December 2024

Technion, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Haifa 32000, Israel.

We present the concept of time-domain bound states in continuum. We show that a rapid judiciously designed temporal modulation of the refractive index in a spatially homogenous medium gives rise to a bound state in time, embedded in a continuum of wave numbers. Mathematically, these bound states in the continuum are closed form solutions of the Maxwell equations in time and one-dimensional space.

An understanding of proton transfer and migration at the surfaces of solid metal oxides and related molecular polyoxometalates (POMs) and metal alkoxides is crucial for the development of reactivity involving protonation or the absorption/binding of water. In this work, the hydrolysis of alkoxido Ti- and Sn-substituted Lindqvist [(MeO)MWO] (M = Ti, ; M = Sn, ) and Keggin [(MeO)MPWO] (M = Ti, ; M = Sn, ) type polyoxometalates (POMs) to hydroxido derivatives and subsequent condensation to μ-oxido species has been investigated in detail to provide insight into proton transfer reactions in these molecular metal oxide systems. Solution NMR studies revealed the dependence of reactions not only on the nature of the heteroatom (Ti or Sn) but also on the type of lacunary (W or PW) POM and also on the solvent (MeCN or DMSO).

To ensure high quality of food and water, the identification of traces of pathogens is mandatory. Rapid nucleic acid-based tests shorten traditional detection times while maintaining low detection limits. Challenging is the loss of nucleic acids during necessary purification processes, since elution off solid surfaces is not efficient.

Background: Poor acute postoperative pain control, coupled with the use of intravenous medications with a limited and unsafety efficacy spectrum, has led to new therapeutic alternative explorations to reduce adverse events while increasing its analgesic efficacy. There cannabinoids have been proposed as a useful control agent in post-surgical pain. Nevertheless, to date, there is no solid evidence to evaluate them.

The use of eggshells as a primary source for developing value-added materials has garnered significant attention in recent years due to their effectiveness as an excellent adsorbent and support. In this study, the Solid-State Dispersion (SSD) method was utilized to prepare composite photocatalysts of eggshells (ES)/TiO₂ in various ratios. TiO₂ and eggshell photocatalysts were also employed as control samples.
