Dispersing upconversion nanocrystals in PMMA microfiber: a novel methodology for temperature sensing

Abstract

The synthesis of a β-NaYF4:Yb3+/Tm3+ phosphor by a thermal decomposition method, focusing on the fabrication of microfibers by the co-doping of nanocrystals with PMMA solution.

Polymer Microfibers Incorporated with Silver Nanoparticles: a New Platform for Optical Sensing

“…Thus, the proposed microfibers (UCNPs/PMMA/Ag) have advantages of easy fabrication, low cost, strong plasticity, and unique optical properties of UCNPs such as large anti-stokes shift and abundant emission bands, further supporting their applications based on optical signal transmission, sensors, and optical components. Consequently, our estimated results of wave-guiding performances show well agreement with reported work [43, 44].

Zirconium-based cubic-perovskite materials for photocatalytic solar cell applications: a DFT study

“…[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Additionally, the unresolved optoelectronic features, such as way of tall preoccupation and tunable bandgaps, slighter real crowds, leading opinion aw and comprehensive pre-occupation range, advanced exibility and lengthy control disperse as extents; and high optical absorption (HOA), [16][17][18] of metallic halide perovskites are highly attractive attention from investigators. [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] Therefore, as compared to other materials, these resources are abundant and affordable. Consequently, solar cells manufactured from these supplies will be more efficient than silicon-created solar cells.…”

Development of bacterial cellulose nanocomposites: An overview of the synthesis of bacterial cellulose nanocomposites with metallic and metallic-oxide nanoparticles by different methods and techniques for biomedical applications

“…[72,76] ZnO, Al, and Al 2 O 3 ) materials. Metallic and metallic oxide nanoparticles have a greater potential to develop specific material applications and gained special attention in the biomedical field to diagnose and sense several diseases [78][79][80][81], as Table 2 illustrates. The development techniques or methods for nanocomposites can be chemically (In situ) or physically (included; chemical Ex-situ) modified, which are mostly known as in situ [89], facile, impregnating, and sputter coating methods.…”

“…However, such types of problems are controlled by modification techniques and methods, which lead to the formation of bacterial cellulose nanocomposites with metallic and metallic oxide (like; Fe, Au, Ag, AgO, Cu, CuO, Zn, ZnO, Al, and Al 2 O 3 ) materials. Metallic and metallic oxide nanoparticles have a greater potential to develop specific material applications and gained special attention in the biomedical field to diagnose and sense several diseases [78–81], as Table 2 illustrates.…”
