The researchers say that their LnNP based LEDs will allow for widely tuneable EL properties by changing the type and ...

LEDs are all around us and come in quite a few different forms, but this new discovery just might open up a whole new realm ...

Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a new class of lanthanide-doped nanomaterials that exhibit extraordinarily high optical nonlinearity, exceeding a magnitude ...

A comprehensive review published in Food & Medicine Homology highlights the transformative potential of time-resolved ...

X-rays are electromagnetic waves with short wavelengths and strong penetrability in physical matter, including live organisms. Scintillators capable of converting X-rays into the ultraviolet (UV), ...

Ten years ago, in a steaming volcanic mudpot in Italy, microbiologists discovered a bizarre bacterium—the first known organism that couldn’t live without lanthanides. To help it feed on methane, ...

"We like to make molecules that have no right to exist", says Dr David Mills from the University of Manchester. "Imagining ways to make our target molecules is a fun and creative process, and provides ...

Lanthanides are rare-earth heavy metals with useful magnetic properties and a knack for emitting light. Researchers had long assumed that lanthanides' toxicity risk was low and therefore safe to ...

Bringing a new sparkle to lanthanide nanocrystals The team's breakthrough, reported in Nature, emerged from reimagining how light is generated. Instead of forcing current through insulating ...

In a recent paper published in the Journal of Organic Chemistry, researchers under the direction of Associate Professor Shinji Harada from Chiba University's Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences ...
