The luminescence properties of green Ba4Si6O16:Eu2+, rare-earths (RE) (RE = Sc, Y, La and Lu except Pm) phosphors are reported. Their long-lasting phosphorescence is discussed in view of trap depths and concentrations determined from thermally stimulated luminescence experiments. A second emission band centered at 439 nm was evidenced at low temperatures, which stems from the substitution of Eu2+ in the two non-equivalent Ba2+ sites of Ba4Si6O16. The mechanoluminescence properties of Ba4Si6O16:Eu2+, RE phosphors are described, and a new mechanoluminescence mechanism is proposed, in the case where RE = Ho3+, involving a trap distribution from 0.694 to 0.924 eV. Mechanical loading (post UV irradiation) induces a decrease in depth of the trap distribution, leading to an increase of the luminescence intensity, whereas a drop of the luminescence intensity is observed upon unloading, following the faster release of the charge carriers.

This paper is devoted to the investigation of the plasmonic effect of metal nanoparticles (NPs) formed on the surface of the YAG: Bi, Ce, Yb phosphors in a temperature range between 4 and 300 K. Combination of a thin conversion layer with silver plasmonic nanostructures leads to increase of sensitizer absorption and emission efficiency. Enhancement of Bi luminescence in YAG epitaxial films with Ag NPs was observed upon cooling the samples below 200 K.

Leveraging Multivalent Assembly towards High-Temperature Liquid-Phase Phosphorescence.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

High-temperature phosphorescence (HTP) materials have attracted considerable attention owing to their expanded application prospects, whereas they still suffer from severe deactivation in polar media, limiting their reliability and utility. Here, we present an efficient multivalent assembly strategy to achieve high-temperature liquid-phase phosphorescence (HTLP). The supramolecular assembly of multivalent modules leads to extremely robust hydrogen-bonding networks, which firmly immobilize the organic phosphors and protect triplet excitons from annihilation in high-temperature polar media, resulting in excellent HTLP emission.

Department of Spleen and Stomach Diseases, the Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, Southwest Medical University, Luzhou 646000, Sichuan Province, China.

Background: Esophageal stricture ranks among the most significant complications following endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Excessive fibrotic repair is a typical pathological feature leading to stenosis after ESD.

Aim: To examine the effectiveness and underlying mechanism of Kangfuxin solution (KFX) in mitigating excessive fibrotic repair of the esophagus post-ESD.

Near-ultraviolet (NUV)-pumped white light-emitting-diodes (WLEDs) often suffer from poor color rendering in the 480-520 nm range, highlighting the need for an efficient cyan phosphor with strong absorption at 370-420 nm. This study presents the successful synthesis of cyan-emitting ZnS/ZnO phosphors using a high-energy planetary ball milling method followed by post-annealing. The fabricated phosphors, with particle sizes ranging from 1 to 3 μm, exhibit strong cyan emission with CIE chromaticity coordinates of (0.

Ubiquitin-specific protease 25 (USP25), a member of the deubiquitination family, plays an important role in protein ubiquitination, degradation, inflammation, and immune regulation. However, the role and mechanism of USP25 in ulcerative colitis (UC) remain unclear. To study the role and mechanism of USP25 in UC, bioinformatics analysis and research are conducted on clinical patients with UC, Usp25 knockout (Usp25) mice, intestinal epithelial cell-specific knockout signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (Stat3) (Villin-Cre Stat3) mice, and human colonic epithelial cells.
