Collisional quantum interference effect on rotational energy transfer in an atom-diatom system

The theoretical model of collisional quantum interference (CQI) in intramolecular rotational energy transfer is described in an atom-diatom system, based on the first Born approximation of time-dependent perturbation theory and considering a long-range interaction potential. The relation between differential and integral interference angles is obtained. For the CO A(1)Pi (v = 0)/e(3)Sigma (-)(v = 1)-He collision system, the calculated integral interference angles are consistent with the experimental values. The physical significance of interference angle and the essential factors it depends on as well as the influence of the short-range interaction on CQI are discussed. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

Multipolar model for collisional quantum interference on rotational energy transfer

A theoretical model of collisional quantum interference (CQI) is developed in a diatom-diatom system based on the first-order Born approximation of time-dependent perturbation theory and the multipolar interaction potential. The transition cross section is obtained. The relations between the differential and integral interference angles are discussed. The key factors on the determination of the differential and integral interference angles are obtained. The changing tendency of the interference angles with the experimental temperatures is obtained.

Energy transfer and tunable luminescence properties of Eu3+ in TbBO3 microspheres via a facile hydrothermal process

Tb(1-x)BO3:xEu(3+) (x = 0-1) microsphere phosphors have been successfully prepared by a simple hydrothermal process directly without further sintering treatment. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), photoluminescence (PL), low-voltage cathodoluminescence (CL), and time-resolved emission spectra as well as lifetimes were used to characterize the samples.

Enhanced amplified spontaneous emission by assistant Forster energy transfer in DCJTB-C545T-Alq(3) coguest-host system

Amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) characteristics of a red fluorescent dye 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-t-butyl-6(1,1,7,7-tetramethyljulolidyl-9-enyl)-4H-pyran (DCJTB) were significantly improved by assistant Forster energy transfer. The coguest-host system was composed of an electron transport organic molecule tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq(3)) as host and a green fluorescent dye (10-(2-benzothiazolyl)-1,1,7,7-tetramethyl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H,5H,11H-[1]benzopyrano[6,7,8-ij]quinolizin-11-one) (C545T) as assistant dopant codoped with the guest red dye DCJTB as emitter in a matrix of polystyrene (PS).

Energy transfer from Tb3+ to Mn2+ in LaMgAl11O19:Tb, Mn phosphors

Luminescent properties of LaMgAl11O19:Tb, Mn phosphors were investigated. It was observed that the energy distributions of the Tb3+-emission bands associated with transitions from the D-5(3) and D-5(4) levels to F-7(J) depend on the Tb3+-concentration, which is due to the cross-relaxation between Tb 31 ions. The emission band at about 516 nm is attributed to the T-4(1) -> (6)A(1) transition of the Mn2+ ions. We observed an energy transfer from the Tb 3, to Mn2+ ions in LaMgAl11O19:Tb, Mn.
