A new niobium-doped inorganic scintillating oxyfluoride, Rb4Ge5O9F6:Nb, was synthesized in single crystal form by high-temperature flux growth. The host structure, Rb4Ge5O9F6, crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbcn with lattice parameters a = 6.98430(10) Å, b = 11.7265(2) Å, and c = 19.2732(3) Å, consisting of germanium oxyfluoride layers made up of Ge3O9 units connected by GeO3F3 octahedra. In its pure form, Rb4Ge5O9F6 shows neither luminescence nor scintillation but when doped …

In its pure form, Rb4Ge5O9F6shows neither luminescence nor scintillation butwhen doped with niobium, Rb4Ge5O9F6:Nb exhibits bright blue luminescence and scintillation. Theisostructural doped structure, Rb4Ge5O9F6:Nb, crystallizes in the orthorhombic space groupPbcnwith lattice parametersa= 6.9960(3) Å,b= 11.7464(6) Å, andc= 19.3341(9) Å. X-ray absorption nearedge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements suggestthat the niobium …
Investigations On The Surface Chemistry Of Colloidal Quantum Dots Towards Fluorescent Biological Probes, John Hardin Dunlap
Investigations On The Surface Chemistry Of Colloidal Quantum Dots Towards Fluorescent Biological Probes, John Hardin Dunlap
Theses and Dissertations
Colloidal semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) have garnered significant interest as promising materials for biological applications due to their improved photostability and narrow, tunable photoluminescence properties compared to organic fluorophores. To facilitate their utility as fluorescent bioimaging probes, QDs must undergo post-synthetic modifications to exchange their native hydrophobic ligands from synthesis with hydrophilic ones that enable colloidal dispersions in aqueous environments. Many examples exist that demonstrate surface modifications for water-soluble QDs and their efficacy in biological systems, however, there is a need to develop a more thorough understanding of how hydrophilic ligands coordinate to QD surfaces in order to develop more …
Structural And Photoluminescent Characterization Of Substituted A3mo4f (A = Sr, Ba, Ca; M = Al, Ga, In, Si And Ge), Robert Lenwood Green
Structural And Photoluminescent Characterization Of Substituted A3mo4f (A = Sr, Ba, Ca; M = Al, Ga, In, Si And Ge), Robert Lenwood Green
Theses and Dissertations
In this dissertation, the structure and photoluminescent properties of A3MO4F-type materials (A = Sr, Ba, Ca; M =Al, Ga, In, Si, Ge) are studied as potential phosphors for compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) and phosphor converted light emitting diode (pc LED) lights. Chapter 1 outlines background information of the evolution of lighting technology as well as detailing the synthesis, structural characterization and photoluminescence measurements. Chapter 2 focuses on the changes that the Sr3AlO4F structure undergoes as a result of exposure to a 5% H2/95% Ar atmosphere. High-resolution neutron powder diffraction is used to probe for minute structural changes. Chapter 3 is …
