来源:ACS PublicationsTo enhance the corrosion resistance of epoxy coatings, a three-dimensional (3D) network-like europium–nickel-co-doped zinc oxide (Eu–Ni–ZnO) was synthesized via a combustion method. The unique 3D network structure physically blocks corrosive medium penetration by creating a tortuous diffusion pathway. Electronic coupling between Eu3+ 4f and Ni2+ 3d orbitals forms “charge carrier traps” that promote charge carrier separation. Oxygen vacancies further capture electrons from anodic dissolution to suppress cathodic reduction. Additionally, Ni3+ provides a strong oxidizing capabi...

Highly Water-Dispersible Upconverting GdPO4Er3+Yb3+ Nanophosphors for Optical, Magnetic, Magnetic Hyperthermia, Anticounterfeit, and In Vitro and Ex-Vivo Multimodal Applications来源:ACS PublicationsHighly water-dispersible Er3+/Yb3+-activated GdPO4 nanophosphors were synthesized via a polyol-mediated coprecipitation route. In situ X-ray diffraction reveals a thermally induced phase transformation from hexagonal to monoclinic symmetry upon annealing between 50 and 900 °C, accompanied by a morphology evolution from nanorods to dumbbell-like structures as confirmed by HRTEM (high resolution tr...

来源:ACS PublicationsCsPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals have been investigated as photocatalysts for CO2 reduction owing to their excellent light-harvesting and multi-exciton generation. However, under strong illumination, Pb2+ migration and reduction to metallic Pb0 cause lattice collapse and accelerated carrier recombination, severely limiting their stability and photocatalytic performance. Here, we developed a dynamic valence regulation approach using Eu2+/Eu3+ redox couple to enhance lattice stability and improve photocatalytic performance by suppressing Pb2+ migration and Pb0 exsolution, modul...

来源:ACS PublicationsSecuring a sustainable supply of rare earth elements (REEs) requires efficient separation and recovery from secondary streams. Zeolites are attractive, low-impact sorbents; however, the atomistic origins of REE selectivity under hydrated conditions remain insufficiently resolved. Here, we combine high-resolution synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) with density functional theory (DFT) to elucidate the exchange and recovery mechanisms of Ce3+, La3+, Eu3+, and Y3+ in ammonium-exchanged faujasite X (NH4–X). Monoelement solutions mimicking the concentrations of leachates ...
