Summary: The tunability of bandgap in scandium microspheres has been achieved by hydrothermal treatment of Sc3+/Gln complexes, where the bandgap decreases with the increase of carbon element and the decrease of scandium element controlled by Gln ligand. The red-shifted room temperature phosphorescence and excitation-dependent emission of scandium microspheres demonstrate their multi-color imaging capability. Increasing the Gln ligand content further reduces the bandgap, enabling the transition from photoluminescence to photothermal properties.

Summary: For the first time, a coordination-induced self-assembly strategy is developed to prepare highly photoactive nanowires by maintaining a high concentration of Sc(NO3)(3) and tartaric acid (TA) aqueous solution at room temperature. Surprisingly, the nanowires can grow in a directional manner along the flow of water on any substrate, showing morphoplastic features depending on the liquid flow direction. The formation of nanowires is attributed to the hydrogen bonding between hydroxyl groups of TA ligands and the multi-coordination of Sc3+ ions. Additionally, the prepared nanowires exhibit high photooxidation ability and show promise for applications in water cleaning via photocatalysis.

Summary: This study proposes a strategy of coordination-induced structural rigidity to achieve enhanced room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) of aluminum/scandium-doped phosphorescent microcubes (Al/Sc-PMCs) in aqueous solution. The coordination-induced rigidity strategy involves the combination of metal sites on the surface of Al/Sc-PMCs with water molecules through strong coordination, followed by the binding of these coordinated water molecules with surface groups through hydrogen bonding interaction. This rigidifies the chemical groups and inhibits their motions, resulting in enhanced RTP efficiency.

Summary: In this study, an inorganic salt heating recrystallization strategy was used to improve the lifetime, quantum efficiency, and stability of phosphorescent scandium/leucine microspheres. Inorganic salt-treated microspheres showed a significant increase in lifetime and intensity compared to untreated microspheres. The enhancement mechanism was attributed to the stabilization of triplet excitons and the promotion of efficient intersystem crossing. This study provides a new design principle and a facile strategy for constructing phosphorescent materials with ultralong lifetime and high stability.
