Optical properties of annealed Mn2+-doped ZnS nanoparticles

Triethylenetetramine (TETA)-assisted synthesis, dynamic growth mechanism, and photoluminescence properties of radial single-crystalline ZnS nanowire bundles

“…540 nm [30]. Fink et al reported an emission located at 580 nm from Mn 2+ -doped ZnS [31]. In our study, the products are of high purity which has been confirmed by XRD, EDS and XPS analysis, indicating the absence of impact from impurities.…”

Folate conjugated carboxymethyl chitosan–manganese doped zinc sulphide nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery and imaging of cancer cells

“…This is an established drug for chemotherapy for decades. Some of its principal uses are in colorectal, pancreatic, breast, head and neck cancer (Steitz, Hofmann, Axmann, & Petri-Fink, 2008). Tumor cell targeting enhances the therapeutic potential of chemotherapy agents.…”

Preparation and characteristics of yellow ZnS:Mn,Ce phosphor

“…Nevertheless, luminescence properties of nanocrystal phosphors are sensitive when there are changes in the environment; hence, an effective passivation layer is formed on the surface of the particles, because of which the luminescence properties of the phosphor are stabilized. The luminescence of nanocrystal phosphors can also be improved by irradiation treatment [9], thermal annealing [10], and optimization of doping concentration [11]. Energy transfer is another effective approach for enhancing the phosphor luminescence [12][13][14][15][16].…”
