Significant greenish-yellow emission from Dy3+/Sm3+ co-doped strontium-aluminate-telluro-borate glasses: role of Ag and CuO nanoparticles interplay by Abdullahi, Ibrahim, Hashim, Suhairul, Ghoshal, Sib K., Sayyed, Muhammad I., Thabit, Hammam A.

“…The observed enhancement in the luminescence intensity was mainly due to the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR)-mediated strong local field effect and energy transfer processes, wherein the synergism of CuO/AgNps played a significant role. Judd–Ofelt model calculation revealed approximately 23-fold improvement in the spectroscopic quality factor. …”

Quorum sensing signalling and activated sludge microbial communities by Tan, Chuan Hao

“…Importantly, these QS regulated behaviours were also found to be co-modulated by the biological degradation of signals, called quorum quenching. The discovery of the potential roles of QS in mixed microbial community function in this study provides an alternative to improve the operation of wastewater treatment communities.…”

Poisoning of bubble propelled catalytic micromotors : the chemical environment matters by Schmidt, Oliver G., Zhao, Guanjia, Sanchez, Samuel, Pumera, Martin

“…We show this effect on catalytic micromotors prepared by both rolled-up and electrodeposition approaches, demonstrating that such poisoning is universal for Pt catalyzed micromotors. …”
