An Eu NMR study in the ferromagnetic phase of pure and Gd-doped EuO was performed. A complete description of the NMR line shape of pure EuO allowed for the influence of doping EuO with Gd impurities to be highlighted. The presence of a temperature-dependen ...
Abstract: Inert and optically active pseudo-octahedral CrIIIN6 and RuIIN6 chromophores have been incorporated by self-assembly into heterobimetallic triple-stranded helicates HHH-[CrLnL3]6+ and HHH-[RuLnL3]5+. The crystal structures of CrLnL36 (L ...
This work describes the synthesis as well as the photophysical and mesomorphic properties of new luminescent liquid crystals able to emit narrow bands in the visible range, and featuring lanthanide ions incorporated into pro-mesogenic coronands. In order t ...
Introduction. One of the major barriers affecting the viability of encapsulated islets is pericapsular fibrotic infiltration (PFI). This study aimed to design strategies to reduce PFI around intraportally injected alginate microbeads. Methods. Empty, highly ...
The stability and water exchange dynamics of gadolinium (GdIII) complexes are critical characteristics that determine their effectiveness as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A new heteropodal GdIII chelate, [Gd-TREN-bis(6-Me-HOPO)-(TAM ...
We performed an Eu153 and Eu151 NMR study of EuO and Gd doped EuO using a home-made spectrometer designed to measure signals with fast spin-spin relaxation times. We determined and described the broadening mechanisms giving rise to the structure in the lin ...
A series of new mixed-ligand lanthanide complexes [Ln(hfa)3(4-cpyNO)]2 (Ln = SmIII-HoIII and TmIII; hfa- = hexafluoroacetylacetonate; 4-cpyNO = 4-cyanopyridine N-oxide) have been synthesised by treating the corresponding lanthanide hexafluoroacetylacetonat ...
The segmental bidentate–tridentate–bidentate ligand L2 reacts with MII (M = Cr, Zn) and LnIII (Ln = La, Eu, Gd, Tb, Lu) to give the heterotrimetallic triple-stranded helicates [MLnM(L2)3]7+. For M = ZnII, the isolated complexes ZnLnZn(L2)37 (Ln = ...
We present an EPR study of two Gd(III) complexes in aqueous solution at multiple temperatures and EPR frequencies. These two complexes, [Gd(TPATCN)] and [Gd(DOTAM)(H2O)]3+, display remarkably sharp lines (i.e. slow transverse electron spin relaxation) in c ...
Energy transfer between nanoscale particles is demonstrated for a Gold/rare-earth oxide nanocomposite. The gold nanoparticle acts as an antenna, absorbing light that can then be transferred to the bound rare-earth oxide (see Figure), enhancing the oxide lu ...
