In situ preparation and luminescent properties of LaPO4:Ce3+, Tb3+ nanoparticles and transparent LaPO4:Ce3+, Tb3+/PMMA nanocomposite

Visible upconversion luminescence of Tb3+ ions in Y2O3 nanoparticles induced by a near-infrared femtosecond laser

“…Moreover, the average fluorescence lifetimes of Tb 3+ ions in our experiment are basically consistent with 1.2 ms in Y 3 GaO 6 [44] and 1.69 ms in La 0.45 Ce 0.45 Tb 0.1 PO 4 nanoparticles [45], whereas slightly longer than 0.6 ms in Li 2 SiO 3 [46], obviously shorter than 4.2/4.9 ms in famous GGG/YAG [47]. This phenomenon might be due to the difference in the phonon energies of the host materials, which can affect the non-radiative transition rates [38].…”

Synthesis of 5-Fluorouracil conjugated LaF3:Tb3+/PEG-COOH nanoparticles and its studies on the interaction with bovine serum albumin: spectroscopic approach

“…(16) The result is in the range of milliseconds due to the forbidden nature of the F-F transition of Tb 3? ( 5 D 4 -7 F 5 ) ions (Chai et al 2009). The maximum lifetime at the wavelength of 543 nm is further considered for investigation for detecting the response of lifetimes after bioconjugation with 5FU.…”

Polyol-mediated synthesis and luminescence properties of CePO4:Tb3+ nanospindles

“…Among them, rare earth phosphates are of importance in biomedical applications due to their high quantum yield and expected low toxicity [7]. A variety of methods, such as microemulsion reaction [8], sol-gel [9] and hydrothermal methods [10] have been developed to synthesize nanoscale rare earth phosphates. Yang et al obtained monodisperse rare earth ion (Eu 3+ , Ce 3+ , Tb 3+ ) doped LaPO 4 particles with oval morphology through a solvothermal process [11].…”
