Abstract

We present a strategy for selecting an optimal material in a particular temperature range by investigating the relationship between the absolute sensitivity ( Sa) and energy gap (Δ E), as well as the relationship between Sa and temperature on the basis of Yb3+/Ln3+ (Ln = Er3+, Ho3+)-codoped Ba2In2O5 phosphors. Through an investigation of optical performance, the phosphors exhibit near-infrared (NIR) downshifting and visible upconversion (UC) emissions under 980 nm excitation. The NIR spectral range from 700 to 1800 nm is referred to as the "biological window". The NIR emission peaks of Er3+ and Ho3+ are located at 1550 nm of the third biological window and 1192 nm of the second biological window, respectively. The temperature sensing behaviors based on the UC luminescence in Yb3+/Ln3+-codoped Ba2In2O5 phosphors are recorded by the fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) technique in the temperature range from 303 to 573 K. The Ba2In2O5:Er3+/Yb3+ sample is usable at temperatures above 350 K, and the Ho3+/Yb3+-codoped Ba2In2O5 phosphor is suitable at temperatures below 350 K in our experimental region. The above results show that the Ba2In2O5:Ln3+/Yb3+ phosphors could be promising candidates for optical temperature sensors and applica...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
