The rate equations (REs) are foundational for understanding various transitions in ENPs. However, the REs and various coefficients are determined only at the classical Er-composition of ~2% and Ytterbium at ~20% where upconversion processes were included only. This paper aims to determine coefficients of the REs through systematic characterizations at the full range of Er levels (5%, 50%, 75%, and 100%), where both up- and down-conversions are important and a careful calibration of visible and near-infrared emission bands is required. The parameter values of the REs are then curve-fitted to obtain their values for arbitrary Er concentration. We found that the non-radiative transitions and energy-transfer processes increase quadratically with Er concentration. We discovered the non-radiative transition from 4I11/2 to 4I13/2 increases with Er concentration and is orders of magnitude faster than other decay processes, exhibiting the highest down-conversion at 100% of Er. Our study explains why high-Er nanoparticles typically show weak upconversion emissions. Our results establish the REs for arbitrary Er-concentration for the first time and can be used more generally for designing ENPs and understanding complex nonlinear processes.","PeriodicalId":92,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143857226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ultrapure green emission, high luminescent intensity, narrow emission spectra, and exceptional stability at high temperatures of FAPbBr3 make them suitable for lighting and sensing technologies. Very little research has been explored on photophysical properties, stability improvement, and applications on FA-based NCs. Herein, we represent a room-temperature synthesis of FA1-xCsxPbBr3 NCs, then encapsulated with a layered (OcA)2PbBr4 shell to enhance the NCs' stability and luminescence intensity. Though 10% Cs-doped FAPbBr3 NCs showed maximum emission intensity, we coated (OcA)2PbBr4 shells around 20% Cs-doped FAPbBr3 NCs for their highest stability. The nonlinear optical properties of the NCs dominated by the thermal lens effect reveal reverse saturable absorption and self-focusing effects with higher χ(3) values in the order of 10-6 e.s.u. The core@shell NCs were tested as temperature sensors, demonstrating a maximum relative sensitivity of 3.31 %-K-1. Further, these NCs were embedded in PMMA microfibers to improve flexibility and stability. These fluorescent microfibers offered excellent water stability for about four months while dipped in water. Finally, the fibers were tested as a fluorescent source to fabricate down-converted green LED, which unveils a CCT value of ~8161 K and a maximum efficiency of ~85 Lm/W. This research unlocks new possibilities for FA-based NCs for efficient temperature sensing, flexible futuristic displays, and optical limiting applications.","PeriodicalId":92,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale","volume":"67 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143857218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the viability of this technology is impeded by the sluggish kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction at the cathode. Recently, triple ionic–electronic conductors have shown their promise as cathode materials with improved catalytic activity because of their enhanced mixed electron and ionic conductivities that can maximise the active sites for the reaction. This review examines the transport mechanism of holes, oxygen ions, and protons within triple ionic–electronic conductors. This review highlights the equilibrium among these charge carriers and their requirement for specific cationic environments to facilitate rapid transport. As a result, triple ionic–electronic conductors need to balance the transport of these charges to realise optimum oxygen reduction reaction activity. The review further identifies the transport of oxygen ions or protons as the current limiting factor in triple ionic–electronic conductors. This review concludes by emphasizing the importance of understanding the role of ionic transport in the oxygen reduction reaction to enhance the performance of triple ionic–electronic conductors.","PeriodicalId":92,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale","volume":"68 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143857222","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, these effects have a substantial influence on the transformation of thin multilayers into nano-alloys where the introduction of template-assisted patterning can shift the transformation temperature, induce a crystallographic texture, and change the phase composition. In this work, we study the phase transformations in patterned Fe/Pd multilayers leading to the formation of FePd alloys. We used two different template-assisted patterning methods, nanosphere lithography and anodization process, to study the influence of film morphology along with local curvature on the transformation process, structure, and magnetism of the resulting alloy. We combined Mössbauer spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, SEM imaging, and magnetometry to track these changes at short- and long-range scales. We show that film morphology is one of the most important factors determining the physical properties of the alloy formed after thermal treatment. It allows for patterning-controlled solid-state dewetting and rearrangement of atoms that in turn governs the phase transformation as well as structural and magnetic properties. We identified two counter-effective processes responsible for FePd L1<small><sub>0</sub></small> phase formation, the effect of patterning-induced interatomic diffusion and the patterning-limited diffusion radius.","PeriodicalId":92,"journal":{"name":"Nanoscale","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143857217","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this regard, structurally and electronically integrated (SEI) BiVO4-TiO2 (SEI-BVT) with abundant heterojunctions have emerged as promising entity for efficient charge separation, which in turn enhanced artificial photosynthesis (APS) activity. The present work adopted a unique synthetic strategy by SILAR to fabricate SEI-BVT from ionic precursors (Bi3+ and VO43-) into the pores of TiO2, exhibiting benchmark APS efficiency than the individual components. This preparation results in approximately 180 trillions of uniformly distributed heterojunctions in 1 mg/cm2 of SEI-BVT photoanode material. Charge carriers in SEI-BVT and BiVO4 are similar; however, the recombination is highly hindered when SEI-BVT heterojunctions are formed in the former. Our earlier work demonstrated 31-38% solar-to-fuel efficiency (STFE) with BiVO4-TiO2 for APS in the presence of Pd-nanocube co-catalyst. The emphasis of the current manuscript is to explore the dynamics of the light-induced processes in these heterojunctions to understand the interfacial charge transfer process. Femtosecond transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy has been employed to monitor the excited state dynamics. Our results show that new trap states have evolved under light illumination, which are significantly long-lived and hinder charge recombination, and consequently enhancing STFE. A significantly large number of charge carriers exhibit a lifetime of &gt;&gt; 6 ns with visible light photons, at least up to 720 nm, which is higher than the band-gap absorption onset at 490 nm for SEI-BVT than bulk BiVO4.

However, the limited water solubility and poor bioavailability of RSV significantly hinder its applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries. To address these challenges, we developed a facile, scalable, and specifically organic-solvent-free method to prepare highly stable and concentrated RSV nanoformulations. By utilizing an ethoxylated hydrogenated castor oil (EHCO) aqueous solution, we successfully dissolve RSV in water at concentrations up to 30 mg/mL. This RSV solution can subsequently be incorporated with hydrogenated lecithin S10 to formulate stable lipid nanoparticles (e.g., 140–180 nm). The entire process is performed under heating and stirring, eliminating the need for organic solvents and ensuring simplicity and high reproducibility. The resulting RSV-CO60@S10 nanoformulations exhibit relatively high encapsulation efficiency (with final RSV concentrations up to 30 mg/mL), long-term stability (exceeding 6 months), preserved antioxidant activity, and effective cellular internalization capabilities that alleviate oxidative stress. Additionally, these nanoparticles exhibit promising therapeutic efficacy on atopic dermatitis in mice.
