Abstract
A succession of Eu3+-activated Na2Y4(WO4)7 (NYW) red phosphors were synthesised and their optical properties were studied in detail for white LED, latent fingerprint and plant growth applications. The phosphors crystallised in a tetragonal system with space group I41/a. The NYW:Eu3+ red phosphors demonstrated a line-like emission at 616 nm owing to electric dipole transition, and a systematic concentration-dependent PL study revealed that concentration quenching occurs at x = 1.8 with a color purity of 96.06%. The thermal stability and internal quantum efficiency of the phosphor were found to be ∼75.54% (at 423 K) and 88%, respectively. Furthermore, solid solution phosphors were synthesized to increase QE, which was found to be 91.27%. Specifically, the hybrid white LED exhibits warm white light with high CRI (80) and low CCT (5730 K) values, and these values are further improved (CRI-81, CCT-4274 K) when the WLED is fabricated using the most efficient solid solution phosphor Na2Y2.2Eu1.8(WO4)3(MoO4)4. The currently synthesized phosphors can be potential candidates for security applications. The selected phosphor compositions can be used for the detection of latent fingerprints. Besides, a succession of Eu3+ and Sm3+ co-doped phosphors were synthesized and their photophysical properties were studied systematically. The deep red LED was fabricated using the same and this could be a possible light source for plant growth usage.

Crystal Structure, Vibrational, Spectroscopic and Thermochemical Properties of Double Sulfate Crystalline Hydrate [CsEu(H2O)3(SO4)2]·H2O and Its Thermal Dehydration Product CsEu(SO4)2. CRYSTALS 2021.

Abstract
Crystalline hydrate of double cesium europium sulfate [CsEu(H2O)3(SO4)2]·H2O was synthesized by the crystallization from an aqueous solution containing equimolar amounts of 1Cs+:1Eu3+:2SO42− ions. Anhydrous salt CsEu(SO4)2 was formed as a result of the thermal dehydration of the crystallohydrate. The unusual effects observed during the thermal dehydration were attributed to the specific coordination of water molecules in the [CsEu(H2O)3(SO4)2]·H2O structure. The crystal structure of [CsEu(H2O)3(SO4)2]·H2O was determined by a single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, and the crystal structure of CsEu(SO4)2 was obtained by the Rietveld method. [CsEu(H2O)3(SO4)2]·H2O crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c (a = 6.5574(1) Å, b = 19.0733(3) Å, c = 8.8364(2) Å, β = 93.931(1)°, V = 1102.58(3) Å3). The anhydrous sulfate CsEu(SO4)2 formed as a result of the thermal destruction crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group C2/c (a = 14.327(1) Å, b = 5.3838(4) Å, c = 9.5104(6) Å, β = 101.979(3) °, V = 717.58(9) Å3). The vibration properties of the compounds are fully consistent with the structural models and are mainly determined by the deformation of non-rigid structural elements, such as H2O and SO42−. As shown by the diffused reflection spectra measurements and DFT calculations, the structural transformation from [CsEu(H2O)3(SO4)2]·H2O to CsEu(SO4)2 induced a significant band gap reduction. A noticeable difference of the luminescence spectra between cesium europium sulfate and cesium europium sulfate hydrate is detected and explained by the variation of the extent of local symmetry violation at the crystallographic sites occupied by Eu3+ ions, namely, by the increase in inversion asymmetry in [CsEu(H2O)3(SO4)2]·H2O and the increase in mirror asymmetry in CsEu(SO4)2. The chemical shift of the 5D0 energy level in cesium europium sulfate hydrate, with respect to cesium europium sulfate, is associated with the presence of H2O molecules in the vicinity of Eu3+ ion.

Abstract
In this work, lanthanum tungstate (La2(WO4)3) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by facile sonochemical method (elmasonic P, under-sonication 37/100 kHz, ~60 W energy) and utilized as an electrode material for the selective and sensitive electrochemical determination of anti-scald inhibitor diphenylamine (DPA). The synthesized La2(WO4)3 NPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses. The results revealed that the sonochemically synthesized La2(WO4)3 nanoparticles were with high crystallinity and uniformly distributed nanoparticles like structure. The as-prepared lanthanum tungstate NPs exhibited an excellent electrocatalytic behavior for DPA determination with the lowest detection limit of 0.0024 µM, wide linear range response of 0.01-58.06 µM and a remarkable sensitivity of 1.021 µA µM-1 cm-2. Furthermore, La2(WO4)3 NPs showed a good recovery to DPA in apple juice sample. Besides, the electrochemical mechanism of the DPA oxidation reaction was provided in detail.

Abstract
Hydrothermal reaction of La(NO3)3 and Na2WO4·2H2O at 100 °C and pH 8 resulted in the formation of new compound NaLaW2O7(OH)2(H2O), as confirmed by the X-ray diffraction results, chemical composition, Fourier transform infrared, thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis, and transmission electron microscopy analyses. The crystal structure was determined in the triclinic system (space group P1̅), with lattice constants a = 5.8671(2) Å, b = 8.2440(2) Å, and c = 9.0108(3) Å, axis angles α = 93.121(2)°, β = 75.280(2)°, and γ = 94.379(2)°, and cell volume V = 420.03(2) Å3. The structure contains two-dimensional layers of -(W1O6)-(W1O6)-(W2O6)-(W2O6)-(W1O6)-(W1O6)- and -LaO9-LaO9- chains alternating in the a-b plane, which are linked together through NaO6 octahedral trigonal prisms by edges to form a three-dimensional net. Dehydration of the compound proceeds up to a low temperature of ∼350 °C and results in the formation of technologically important NaLa(WO4)2 double tungstate, which is thus a unique precursor for the latter. Na(La,RE)W2O7(OH)2(H2O) and Na(La,RE)(WO4)2 solid solutions separately doped with the practically important activators for which RE = Eu, Tb, Sm, and Dy were also successfully synthesized and investigated for their structural features and photoluminescence properties, including excitation, emission, quantum yield, emission color, and fluorescence decay kinetics. The compounds were shown to exhibit dominantly strong red (∼616 nm for Eu3+; λex = 395 or 464 nm), green (∼545 nm for Tb3+; λex = 278 or 258 nm), deep red (∼645 nm for Sm3+; λex = 251 nm), and yellow (∼573 nm for Dy3+; λex = 254 nm) emission upon being irradiated with the peak wavelengths of their strongest excitation bands.
