Abstract
Luminescent materials used in flat panel displays, compact fluorescent lamps, and light-emitting diodes require high purity, uniform particle size, clean surfaces, spherical shape, and dense morphology to ensure long-term stability. Y2 O3 :Eu3+ is a widely studied red phosphor known for its characteristic photoluminescence (PL) emission at 613 nm with near-UV excitation at 392 nm. Many methods have been explored to synthesize Y2 O3 :Eu3+ nanoparticles with exceptional purity, consistent phases, and uniform particle sizes. The aim is to synthesize particles with pristine surfaces, spherical shape, and compact morphology. This study focuses on the low-temperature synthesis and PL investigation of Y2-x O3 :Eux 3+ nanophosphors using combustion with thioglycerol as fuel. The results are compared with Y2-x O3 :Eux 3+ red nanophosphors synthesized using wet chemical and nitrate combustion methods. The PL characteristics of the Y2-x O3 :Eux 3+ nanophosphors were analyzed using PL emission spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. These findings highlight the advantageous properties of the synthesized nanophosphors, such as their suitability for solid-state lighting applications in the lamp industry as highly efficient red phosphors. The combination of high purity, uniform particle size, clean surfaces, spherical shape, and dense morphology contributes to their potential for long-term stability and reliable performance in lighting devices.

Abstract
Silver nanoclusters (Ag NCs) are nanoscale aggregates that possess molecular-like discrete energy levels, resulting in electronic configuration-dependent tunable luminescence spanning the entire visible range. Benefiting from the efficient ion exchange capacity, nanometer dimensional cages, and high thermal and chemical stabilities, zeolites have been employed as desirable inorganic matrices to disperse and stabilize Ag NCs. This paper reviewed the recent research progresses on the luminescence properties, spectral manipulation, as well as the theoretical modelling of electronic structure and optical transition of Ag NCs confined inside various zeolites with different topology structures. Furthermore, potential applications of the zeolite-encaged luminescent Ag NCs in lighting, gas monitoring and sensing were presented. This review concludes with a brief comment on the possible future directions in the study of zeolite-encaged luminescent Ag NCs.

Abstract
A series of Ag-zeolite luminescent composites are prepared based on SOD and FAUY zeolites, and the effect of zeolite host particle size on their dynamic luminescent emission properties was discussed for the first time. The relationship between zeolite particle size and the nucleation of silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) is revealed. With the increase of zeolite particle size from nanometers to microns, the luminescent color of both Ag-SOD and Ag-Y composites shows significant blue shift. The observed tunable luminescence can be accounted for the slower nucleation rate of AgNCs in micron-scale zeolites with longer channels, resulting in smaller nuclearity of AgNCs within large-size zeolites, through the characterization of extended X-ray absorption fine structure, implying the important roles played by the zeolite themselves in determining the luminescence properties. Moreover, the composites prepared by us feature simple signal transduction, fast response (30 s), and excellent selectivity and sensitivity for discriminative luminescence detection of triethylamine and ethylamine, and they have good reversible luminescence response after sensing HAc gas, which might imply the potential applications in the volatile organic amine detection and information encryption field.

Abstract
Faujasite zeolites with a regular micropore and mesopore structure have been considered desirable scaffolds to stabilize luminescent silver nanoclusters (Ag CLs), while turning of the emission properties of the confined Ag CLs is still under investigation. In this study, the desilicated and dealuminated faujasite zeolites were first prepared to modify the zeolite framework and Si/Al ratio before Ag+ loading. With thermal treatment on the thereafter Ag+-exchanged zeolites, the Ag CLs formatted inside the D6r cages showed red-shifted emission in the desilicated zeolites and blue-shifted emission in the dealuminated zeolites, so that a tunable emission in the wavelength range of 482-528 nm could be obtained. Meanwhile, the full width at half maximum of the emission spectra is also closely related with framework modification, which monotonously increases with enhancing Si/Al ratio of host zeolite. The XRD, XPS, and spectral measurements indicated that the tunable luminescence properties of Ag CLs result from the controlling of local crystal field and coupling between host lattice and luminescent center. This paper proposes an effective strategy to manipulate the emission properties of Ag CLs confined inside zeolites and may benefit the applications of noble metal clusters activated phosphors in imaging and tunable emission.

Abstract
Zeolite Y and its ultra-stabilized hierarchical derivative (USY) are the most widely used zeolite-based heterogeneous catalysts in oil refining, petrochemisty, and other chemicals manufacturing. After almost 60 years of academic and industrial research, their resilience is unique as no other catalyst displaced them from key processes such as FCC and hydrocracking. The present study highlights the key difference leading to the exceptional catalytic performance of USY versus the parent zeolite Y in a multi-technique study combining advanced spectroscopies (IR and solid-state NMR) and molecular modeling. The results highlight a hitherto unreported proton transfer involving inaccessible active sites in sodalite cages that contributes to the exceptional catalytic performance of USY.

Abstract
In the present work, we report the electron transfers occurring after ionization of the guest molecules of t-stilbene incorporated in graphitized HZSM-5 zeolites and we compare these results with the data obtained previously for graphite-free zeolites. Complementary diffuse reflectance UV-vis and Raman scattering spectroscopies provide evidence for stabilization of long lived charge separated states as observed in non-graphitized ZSM-5. The spectral features indicate that these species are located in the channels of the zeolite structure. However, the pulsed EPR technique shows strong coupling between unpaired electrons and the 13C atoms in the case of graphitized zeolites while this interaction is not observed in normal zeolites. This is assigned to the presence of charge transfer complexes in the close vicinity of graphite areas and to the possible electron transfer to the graphitized domain. Using cyclic voltammetry, an electrochemical response is observed for the first time in such systems demonstrating the role played by graphite in the electron transfers.

Abstract
Silver molecular clusters were synthesized in photo-thermo-refractive glasses using the Na+-Ag+ ion exchange technique followed by heat treatment. Comprehensive study of cluster emission reveals the presence of spectrally separated fluorescence and phosphorescence with nanosecond and microsecond lifetime. Co-doping of glasses with Eu3+ was shown to results in quenching of cluster luminescence caused by energy transfer. The monitoring of silver cluster luminescence quantum yield and lifetime in the presence of Eu3+ indicates the presence of two different mechanisms of energy transfer. The first one affects the decay kinetics of cluster fluorescence and manifests at long distances, while the second one leads to static quenching of cluster emission at shorter distances and becomes prominent at higher doping Eu3+ concentration.
