Hydrothermal preparation and photoluminescence of bundle-like structure of ZnWO4 nanorods

Facile synthesis, characterization, formation mechanism and photoluminescence property of Eu2O3 nanorods

“…The emission spectrum is observed with the strongest emission peak at 611 nm, which indicates that the cubic phase Eu 2 O 3 has been produced [20,25], which is consistent with the XRD results. It should be noted that the emission peak of Eu 2 O 3 nanorods is obviously broadened comparing with that of bulk Eu 2 O 3 due to a disordering of the crystal phase, possibly induced by the increase in the surface-volume ratio with decreasing size and low dimensionality [20]. …”

“…In recent years, the synthesis of 1-D Eu 2 O 3 nanostructures has received a tremendous amount of attention as they have a higher packing density and a larger percentage of active sites compared with bulk materials [20]. For example, Pol et al [21] synthesized Eu 2 O 3 nanorods by thermal conversion (700 • C) of ultrasonicationinduced Eu(OH) 3 nanorods.…”

Direct electrochemistry of hemoglobin on an ionic liquid carbon electrode modified with zinc tungstate nanorods

“…ZnWO 4 has aroused great attention in recent years due to its wide physical and chemical properties, and has been used for the fabrication for scintillators, laser hosts and optical fibers [20][21][22]. Until now ZnWO 4 with different morphologies have been synthesized by different methods such as hydrothermal process [23], microwave solvothermal process [24], and one-step template-free method [25]. Zhao et al investigated the photoelectrocatalytic degradation of organic contaminant of azo dyes with a ZnWO 4 nanoparticle modified boron-doped diamond electrode [26].…”

ZnWO4:Eu3+ nanorods: A potential tunable white light-emitting phosphors

“…As a self-activating phosphor, ZnWO 4 exhibits a broad, intrinsic blue-green emission band under deep UV excitation [14]. The well-researched deep UV LED based on AlGaN semiconductor can perfectly provide excitation wavelength in the range of 280-315 nm [15,16].…”
