This book provides a series of methods for flexibly and actively manipulating thermal emission and photoluminance by advanced nanostructuresmetamaterials. Nanostructures in subwavelength scales can be designed to precisely modulate light-matter interactions and thereby tailoring…
This study investigates the photoluminescence (PL), cathodoluminescence (CL), radioluminescence (RL) and ionoluminescence (IL) of natural and synthetic minerals. The natural minerals (fluorapatite, leucophanite, meliphanite and zircon) are mostly from Ilímaussaq Alkaline Complex…
Cubic Polyhedral Oligomeric SilSesquioxanes (POSS) of general formula Si₈O₁₂R₈ (R = alkenyl, alkoxy, aryl, hydrogen...) have found applications in various fields ranging from biology to chemistry. Besides the advantage of presenting the characteristic dendritic globular shape at…
Nanoparticles have potential biomedical applications because of their special physical properties. Multi-scale nanoparticles contrast agents are those particles that provide contrast in different scale imaging modalities. Such particles are of great interest for monitoring anti-…
Solar powered photocatalytic water splitting has been proposed as a method for the production of sustainable, non-carbon hydrogen fuel. Although much technological progress has been achieved in recent years in the discovery of advanced photocatalytic materials, the progress in t…
Zinc tungstate (ZnWO\sb4) is promising as a scintillator and laser host material. However, the presence of color centers limit its applications. It has been found that special annealing techniques or doping with metallic elements such as Nb or Sb can bleach the samples (Zhou et …
