Solid Solutions of Rare Earth Cations in Mesoporous Anatase Beads and Their Performances in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells.

Sci. Rep. 5 , 16785, (2015)

Solid solutions of the rare earth (RE) cations Pr(3+), Nd(3+), Sm(3+), Gd(3+), Er(3+) and Yb(3+) in anatase TiO2 have been synthesized as mesoporous beads in the concentration range 0.1-0.3% of metal atoms. The solid solutions were have been characterized by ...

Biodistribution of sub-10 nm PEG-modified radioactive/upconversion nanoparticles.

Biomaterials 34(29) , 7127-34, (2013)

The biodistribution of lanthanide-based upconversion nanophosphors (UCNPs) has attracted increasing attention, and all of the reported UCNPs display metabolism in the liver and spleen mainly. Herein, ∼8 nm poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-coated NaYF4 nanoparticle...

Hydrothermal synthesis of NaLuF4:153Sm,Yb,Tm nanoparticles and their application in dual-modality upconversion luminescence and SPECT bioimaging.

Biomaterials 34(3) , 774-83, (2013)

Upconversion luminescence (UCL) properties and radioactivity have been integrated into NaLuF(4):(153)Sm,Yb,Tm nanoparticles by a facile one-step hydrothermal method, making these nanoparticles potential candidates for UCL and single-photon emission computed t...

Solvent dependent reductive defluorination of aliphatic C-F bonds employing Sm(HMDS)2.

Chem. Commun. (Camb.) 49(18) , 1826-8, (2013)

Sm(HMDS)(2) in n-hexane mediates fast cleavage of primary, secondary and tertiary alkyl fluorides in good to excellent yields. In n-hexane Sm(HMDS)(2) exhibits uniquely enhanced reductive ability towards the C-F bond compared to when using THF as solvent.

Evidence for supernova injection into the solar nebula and the decoupling of r-process nucleosynthesis.

Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 110(43) , 17241-6, (2013)

The isotopic composition of our Solar System reflects the blending of materials derived from numerous past nucleosynthetic events, each characterized by a distinct isotopic signature. We show that the isotopic compositions of elements spanning a large mass ra...

Spectroscopic and laser properties of Sm³⁺ ions doped lithium fluoroborate glasses for efficient visible lasers.

Sm(3+)-doped Ba3Bi(PO4)3 orange reddish emitting phosphor.

Spectrochim. Acta. A. Mol. Biomol. Spectrosc. 105 , 626-31, (2013)

Ba(3)Bi(PO(4))(3):Sm(3+) phosphors were prepared via solid state reaction process. The crystal structure of the phosphor was characterized by XRD. The PL properties of Ba(3)Bi(PO(4))(3):Sm(3+) were investigated. The optimized phosphor with the composition of ...

Selective synthesis of α,α-dideuterio alcohols by the reduction of carboxylic acids using SmI2 and D2O as deuterium source under SET conditions.

Org. Lett. 16(19) , 5052-5, (2014)

The first general method for the chemoselective synthesis of α,α-dideuterio alcohols directly from feedstock carboxylic acids under single electron transfer conditions using SmI2 is reported. This reaction proceeds after the activation of Sm(II) with a Lewis ...

Systemic administration of new therapeutic radioisotopes, including phosphorus, strontium, samarium, and rhenium.

Curr. Opin. Oncol. 6(6) , 607-10, (1994)

New advances in systemic radionuclide therapy have increased the number of treatment options available for patients with painful osseous metastases. This form of therapy has three major appeals: 1) it addresses all sites of involvement; 2) selective absorptio...

Synergism and inhibition in the combination of visible light and HMPA in SmI2 reductions.

J. Org. Chem. 77(20) , 9199-204, (2012)

The reaction of six substrates (diphenylacetylene, benzonitrile, methyl benzoate, phenylacetylene, naphthalene, and 1-chloro-4-ethylbenzene) with SmI(2) in the presence of MeOH or TFE was studied. The reactions were monitored under three different conditions:...
