Abstract
In the present work, we report a systematic study on optical alteration in Tb:Ce(Sal)3Phen, Tb(Sal)3Phen complexes, and TbCl3·6H2O inhibited in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) polymeric nanofibres. We also report the feasibility of Tb:Ce(Sal)3Phen complex dispersed electrospun nanofibres for opto-humidity sensor. Structural, morphological, and spectroscopic properties of the synthesized nanofibres were systematically compared using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and Photoluminescence analysis. Synthesized Tb(Sal)3Phen complex inhibited in nanofibres yields characteristic bright green photoluminescence of Tb3+ under UV excitations, which is at least two manifolds enhanced on the addition of Ce3+ ions in the same complex. The presence of Ce3+ ions, the salicylate ligand, and the Tb3+ ion help to expand the absorption range (290 nm-400 nm) and, subsequently, the photoluminescence in blue and green regions. Our analysis revealed the linear enhancement of photoluminescence intensity with the addition of Ce3+ ions. Upon exposing the flexible Tb:Ce(Sal)3Phen complex dispersed nanofibres mat in different humidity environments, photoluminescence intensity shows a linear variation. The prepared nanofibres film shows good reversibility, small hysteresis, cyclic stability, and acceptable response and recovery times i.e. 35 and 45 s. The humidity sensing mechanism was proposed on the basis of infrared absorption analysis of dry and humid nanofibres.

Abstract
Industrial waste acidic gases are huge hazards to the environment and human health, so a material that can detect and remove them is needed. In this paper, CM chitosan-Eu3+ fluorescence aerogel was prepared via a green method by combining the carboxymethyl chitosan biomass polymer with Eu3+ ions, the structure and properties of this aerogel were characterized by SEM, TG, and stress-strain curves. The coordination of Eu3+ ions and carboxymethyl chitosan was analyzed with XPS and the difference in luminescence intensity of aerogel prepared at different pH values was analyzed. The monitoring of the aerogels revealed different responses to different acidic gases, and the fluorescence intensity of the aerogel showed a linear decrease with the adsorbed hydrogen chloride gas (HCl), while acetic acid gas (HAc) enhanced fluorescence. The adsorption system of the CM chitosan-Eu3+ aerogel was simulated using pseudo-second-order kinetics, which showed that the maximum adsorption capacity of HCl is 9.16 mmol/g. The different response mechanisms of HCl and HAc gas were analyzed with FT-IR, fluorescence lifetime imaging and Judd-Ofelt theory. This fluorescence aerogel was found to have potential applications in ensuring industrial production safety.
