Density functional calculations demonstrate how the hybridization between the ns2 ion (e.g., Tl+) and its ligand and the ionicity of the host material affect electronic structure and optical transitions in ns2 ion-activated luminescent materials.

Metal oxide nanoparticles demonstrate uniqueness in various technical applications due to their suitable physiochemical properties. In particular, yttrium oxide (Y2O3) nanoparticle is familiar for technical applications because of its higher dielectric constant and thermal stability. It is widely used as a host material for a variety of rare-earth dopants, biological imaging, and photodynamic therapies. Y2O3 has also been used as a polarizer, phosphor, laser host material, and in the optoelectronic fields for cancer therapy, biosensor, and bioimaging. Yttrium oxide nanoparticles have attractive antibacterial and antioxidant properties. This review focuses on the promising applications of Y2O3, its drawbacks, and its modifications. The synthetic methods of nanoparticles, such as sol-gel, emulsion, chemical methods, solid-state reactions, combustion, colloid reaction techniques, and hydrothermal processing, are recapitulated. Herein, we also discuss the advantages and disadvantages of Y2O3 NPs based biosensors that function through various detection modes including colorimetric, electrochemistry, and chemo luminescent regarding the detection of small organic chemicals, metal ions, and biomarkers.

The result shows that there is a stronger interaction between Ni and TiO2 when Ni is the host material compared with that with TiO2 as the host material. And the former displays a more obvious promotion effect on the HER performance.

This study investigated the performance of different materials in a micro-trench composite backfilling design. Laboratory tests were conducted to evaluate the effect of cold temperatures and freeze/thaw cycles on a cement grout and seven preparatory cold asphalt mixes. To compare the performance of cold mix asphalt and epoxy grout with hot mix asphalt as the host material, rutting tests and dynamic modulus tests at different loading frequencies and temperatures were conducted. Finally, laboratory scale micro-trench samples were prepared using different backfilling materials and were loaded using a wheel tracker after freeze/thaw conditioning. The results showed that cement grout could effectively be used to secure the conduit inside the trench. It was also concluded that using high-quality cold mix asphalt, a compatible material with hot mix asphalt, could improve micro-trench durability compared with epoxy grout.
