STUDY ON RARE EARTH-HEDTA-SERINE TERNARY SYSTEM BY POTENTIOMETRY AND FLUORESCENCE SPECTROSCOPY

In this pare earth-HEDTA-serine (Ser) ternary system has been studied by potentiometric titration at 25 degrees C with an ionic strength of 0.15 mol.L-1 (NaCl). The excitation and fluorescence spectra of TbCl3, Tb-Ser, Tb-HEDTA and Tb-HEDTA-Ser have hem determined at room temperature. The stability constants of these ternary complexes have been obtained, It lieu been found that Tb-HEDTA-Ser ternary system exhibit characteriatic fluorescence spectrum of Tb3+ sensitized by two ligands,The results mean that the chemical hood between the control ion and the ligand in this ternary system is predominantly ionic in character,and the energy transfer from ligand to Tb8+ is performed by a kind of abort-range electron exchange action.

INVESTIGATIONS ON THE ENERGY-TRANSFER OF EXCITED PARTICLE COLLISION WITH DOUBLE LASER LINES FOR EXCITATION OF LA(I)

Generally speaking, productions of thermally-assisted and stepwise fluorescence are the consequence of energy transfer caused by particle collision. In some circumstances, energy transfer caused by particle collision is considerably intense. We have ever used the fluorescence produced by energy transfer of particle collision to measure the branching ratios in the atomic transitions and acquired good results. To our knowledge, the systematic in

Identifying framework titanium in TS-1 zeolite by UV resonance Raman spectroscopy

Framework titanium in Ti-silicalite-1 (TS-1) zeolite was selectively identified by its resonance Raman bands using ultraviolet (W) Raman spectroscopy. Raman spectra of the TS-1 and silicalite-1 zeolites were obtained and compared using continuous wave laser lines at 244, 325, and 488 nm as the excitation sources. It was only with the excitation at 244 nm that resonance enhanced Raman bands at 490, 530, and 1125 cm(-1) appeared exclusively for the TS-1 zeolite. Furthermore, these bands increased in intensity with the crystallization time of the TS-1 zeolite. The Raman bands at 490, 530, and 1125 cm(-1) are identified as the framework titanium species because they only appeared when the laser excites the charge-transfer transition of the framework titanium species in the TS-1. No resonance Raman enhancement was detected for the bands of silicalite-1 zeolite and for the band at 960 cm(-1) of TS-1 with any of the excitation sources ranging from the visible tb UV regions. This approach can be applicable for the identification of other transition metal ions substituted in the framework of a zeolite or any other molecular sieve.
