Abstract:In this work, titania (TiO2) nanoparticles modified by Eu(TTA)3Phen complexes (ETP) were prepared by a simple solvothermal method developing a fluorescence Mn7+ pollutant sensing system. The characterization results indicate that the ETP cause structural deformation and redshifts of the UV-visible light absorptions of host TiO2 nanoparticles. The ETP also reduce the crystallinity and crystallite size of TiO2 nanoparticles. Compared with TiO2 nanoparticles modified with Eu3+ (TiO2-Eu3+), TiO2 nanoparticles modi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
