The NaGdF4:Yb^(3+),Er^(3+) nanoparticles probe was used to detect the rhodamine B(RhB) in bean sprout. It is found that the fluorescencedye can be efficiently imbibed during the growing process and the absorbance presented a position dependence effect, which was supported by the upconversion spectra and the fluorescent image characterization. In addition, the concentration of the residual RhB in bean sprout can be efficiently traced by the synthesized probe based on the fluorescent resonant energy transfer. Finally, the relation between the excitation power, concentration and the ratio of yellow to green emission are discussed in detail. These results can be helpful in understanding the RhB dye molecules absorbance process in vegetable growth and provide an efficient way to trace the residual dyes in vivo plant.展开更多

It was found that after UV-C irra.diation, OSL was produced on a wide band of visible wavelengths with decay time that varied by several orders of magnitude depending on the Eu2+ aggregation state. In spite of the low intensity of solar UV-C reaching the Earth's surface in Madrid (40° N, 700 m a.s.1.), it was possible to measure the UV-C radiation dose at 6:48 solar time by using the TL response of the KCI:Eu2+ system and differentiate it from the ambient beta radiation dose.展开更多
