Summary: Tb3+ and Eu3+ doped La4GeO8 phosphors with multicolor emission were synthesized and their photoluminescence properties were investigated. The energy transfer from Tb3+ to Eu3+ in La4GeO8 is attributed to quadrupole-quadrupole interaction. The La4GeO8:0.07Tb3+,0.01Eu3+ phosphor exhibits good thermal stability with activation energies of 0.186 eV and 0.187 eV for Tb3+ and Eu3+ ions, respectively. By adjusting the content ratio of Eu3+ to Tb3+, the La4GeO8:Tb3+,Eu3+ phosphors can achieve multicolor luminescence and tunable chromaticity. These findings suggest that La4GeO8:Tb3+,Eu3+ phosphors are promising for solid-state lighting applications.

Summary: Uniform and well-dispersed SiO2:x%Tb3+@Lu2O3:y%Eu3+ core-shell spherical phosphors were successfully synthesized, demonstrating that multicolor luminescence could be achieved by changing the doping ratio of Eu3+ or excitation wavelengths. Coating the Lu2O3:Eu3+ layer uniformly on the surface of SiO2:Tb3+ spheres resulted in stronger luminescence intensity, longer fluorescence lifetime, and higher energy transfer efficiency. These results provide a new approach for enhancing luminescence and achieving multicolor luminescence.

Summary: The novel red-emitting BaBi2-xEuxB4O10 (x = 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.25, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6) phosphors were synthesized by crystallization from a glass. The distribution of Eu3+ ions over cation sites was refined using X-ray diffraction data. Emission and excitation spectra of the Eu3+-doped BaBi2B4O10 phosphors were investigated, and the optimal concentration was found to be x = 0.4. The chromaticity coordinates of BaBi2B4O10:Eu3+ (x = 0.4) phosphor were close to the NTSC standard values for commercial red phosphors. These results suggest that BaBi2B4O10:Eu3+ phosphors are promising candidates for solid state lighting applications.

Summary: RE2O2S:Eu3+-Ln(3+) (RE = La, Gd, Y, Lu; Ln = Pr, Tb) samples were prepared and studied as red persistent phosphors. Eu3+-singly doped RE2O2S showed weak TL glow peaks, but additional strong TL peaks were observed by codoping Pr3+ or Tb3+ ions. The PersL and TL spectra only showed luminescence from Eu3+, indicating that Eu3+ acts as a recombination center while Pr3+ and Tb3+ ions act as hole trap centers. La2O2S:Eu3+-Pr3+ was found to be the best composition, displaying strong red persistent luminescence at ambient temperature.

Summary: A core-shell structured Fe3O4@MgO catalyst with spherical morphology was synthesized using a two-fold co-precipitation technique. In this study, Fe3O4@MgO was successfully used as an effective, novel, and recoverable nanocatalyst in an easy-to-follow, affordable, environment-friendly, and productive process for the synthesis of polyhydroquinoline derivatives via one-pot four-component Hantzsch condensation reaction. Importantly, magnetically retrievable Fe3O4@MgO nanoparticles showed high catalytic efficiency in solvent-free condition and could be reused up to six cycles without significant loss of catalytic activity. The study provides a greener route to yield 82-94% of polyhydroquinoline in a short reaction time under ultrasonication.

Summary: In this study, CBS glass/Al2O3 composites were developed for LTCC applications based on a CaO-B2O3-SiO2 (CBS) glass system with a high boron content. The study revealed that the softening of glass and interfacial reaction between the glass and Al2O3 were the two most important factors affecting LTCC's densification process. Real-time shrinkage rate of LTCC during sintering was successfully simulated, and it was proven that the formation of the CaAl2(BO3)O phase played a significant role in reducing glass viscosity and promoting dense structure formation. The resulting LTCC composite exhibited excellent performance for high-frequency applications.

Summary: In this study, the disordering caused by swift heavy ion irradiation in two different compositions of pyrochlore structures was investigated. X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy were used to analyze the samples before and after irradiation. It was found that both compositions underwent amorphization due to irradiation, with a slower rate observed in Nd1.8Zr2.2O7.1. The irradiation-induced modified track region in Nd1.8Zr2.2O7.1 consisted of defect-rich pyrochlore structure, anion-deficient fluorite structure, and amorphous domains.

Summary: Microstructure design plays a crucial role in regulating the microwave dielectric properties of materials, however, the understanding of frequency temperature stability and related micromechanism remains limited. In this study, a combination of first-principles calculations and experimental observation was used to investigate the correlation among sintering behavior, crystal structure, bonding nature, and microwave dielectric properties of LnPO(4) (Ln = Eu, Pr) ceramics. The research findings systematically clarify the optimized effect and micromechanism of lanthanides on the dielectric properties of monazite ceramics, providing insights into the design and enhancement of microwave dielectric materials.

Summary: The study investigates the frictional and wear behaviors of carbon fiber-reinforced SiC ceramic matrix composites with different fiber orientations mating with ceramic balls. The results show that fiber orientation significantly affects the friction and wear properties of the composites. Pads with randomly arranged fibers demonstrate better friction stability and lower wear volume, potentially suitable for bearing material applications. The research also explores the factors influencing the formation of continuous tribo-film and identifies abrasive wear and oxidation wear as the dominant wear mechanisms for the friction pairs.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of K/Na ratio on the phase structure, ferroelectric domains, and piezoelectric properties of potassium sodium niobate (KNN)-based ceramics. It reveals that high Na+ content leads to large ferroelectric domains, while high K+ content results in local polarity heterogeneity and distinct dielectric relaxational behavior. The balanced local polarity and stress heterogeneities contribute to improved piezoelectricity.
