We demonstrate that the nanosize effect appears to affect the properties of dye molecules encapsulated in the pores of a metal–organic framework (dye@MOF). The emissive properties of the nanosized dye@MOF...

Luminescent phenomena have fascinated mankind since the earliest times. The light from the aurora borealis, glow worms, luminescent wood, rotting fish and meat are all examples of naturally occurring luminescence. E. Newton Harvey’s 770 page volume “A History of Luminescence: From the Earliest Times until 1900” is a classic which narrates interesting stories from ancient cultures to modern times. The earliest written account of a solid state luminescent material comes from a Chinese text published in the Song dynasty (960–1279 A.D.). The Buddhist sacred jewel, called "hashi-no-tama" in Japan, is alleged to be self-luminous and to shed a brilliant light on its surroundings. In the Svetasvatara Upanishad, probably recorded at some time before the sixth century BC, we find a mention of fire-flies as one of the manifestations of Brahma.

AbstractReaction of chlorosilanes with sheet silicates, such as the naturally occurring apophyllite, [Ca4Si8O2O(F, OH).8H2O] results in the formation of sheet organofunctional siloxane polymers. Similarly, reaction of chlorosilanes with the tube silicate K2CuSi4O10results in the formation of tube organofunctional siloxane polymers. Representative polymers have been characterized by XRD, KR, XPS and solid state 29Si NMR. The interlayer spacing of the sheet polymers varies with the type of the group pendent on the sheet. When the organofunctional pendent groups of the sheet polymers contain reactive sites, further reactivity can be demonstrated with heterogeneous reactions such as hydrosilation. The sheet polymers behave as very effective thickeners of siloxane fluids. Dispersions of them in siloxane fluids exhibit thixotropic properties. The organosilicon polymers have the potential to show useful chemical, thermal, rheological and mechanical properties

Rutile pigments Ti1-3xCrxNb2xO2±δ (where x=0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.30 and 0.50) prepared by solid-state reaction are investigated. Chromium is chromophore (coloring ion) and niobium is counterion (charge-compensating element for electroneutrality). The effect of composition (x), calcination temperature (850, 900, 950, 1000, 1050, 1100 and 1150°C), and starting titanium compounds (anatase TiO2, hydrated anatase paste, TiOSO4·2H2O, and hydrated Na2Ti4O9 paste) on their color properties into organic matrix and particle size distribution was observed. According to the highest chroma C and visual color evaluation, yellow and orange pigments were selected as in color the most interesting. They have concentration x=0.05 or 0.10 and are prepared from anatase TiO2 and TiOSO4·2H2O at temperature ≥1050°C.

AbstractThis work reports on the changes of solid-state cells dye-sensitized solar cells performance with the variation of concentration of spiro-OMeTAD between 5% and 25% in the fabrication of the cell. The changes in charge recombination and capacitance correlate with the improvement of current-potential characteristics a increasing spiro-OMeTAD content, which is explained by reduction of transport resistance for hole transport, the increase of charge separation in the dye molecules, and importantly, with the increase of the β-factor in the recombination resistance, that causes a reduction of the diode ideality factor.

Naturally occurring volcanic glass in the form of the expanded perlite consist of 72.59wt% silica was used as a starting material together with the calcined eggshell in order to explore the wollastonite formation via solid state reaction. The molar mixing ratios of CaO:SiO2 were carried out from 1:0.8 to 1:1.4, calcined in the range of 600 - 1100°C for 2 - 5 hours. The XRD results confirm the formation of wollastonite (CaSiO3) started at 800°C, and increasing of calcination temperature favoured the formation of gelehnite (Ca2Al2SiO7) associated with wollastonite. The morphology characterized by SEM clearly show tiny needle-like shape of primary wollastonite on the surface of agglomerate particles. The CaO:SiO2 ratio of 1:1.4 which calcined at 1100 °C for 2-5 hours was found to be the most appropriate molar ratio in the case of using the calcined eggshell and expanded perlite as starting materials.
