Pd 3 Bi 2 S 2 thin films were grown on a Si(111) substrate using pulsed laser deposition ( KrF excimer , λ = 248 nm) in Argon atmosphere. A polycrystalline target was prepared by the solid state reaction of stoichiometric amounts of high purity starting materials in a vacuum sealed quartz tube. The laser ablation was performed on the polycrystalline target under the growth conditions of 1.8 J/cm 2 laser fluence at low repetition rate of 1 Hz36 (link).

Particle sizes of a series of UCNPs were determined by dynamic light scattering (DLS) (Zetasizer Nano-S90, Malvern Instruments Ltd., Worcestershire, UK) at a 90° scattering angle, and particle sizes (mean ± sd) of representative UCNPs from TEM images were also calculated using OriginPro® software (OriginLab®). Irradiation by an 808 nm laser (Laserlab CO, Gyeonggi-do, R. O. Korea) was used to identify the fluorescence emission of UCNPs. Morphology of Core@shell UCNPs was examined by ultrahigh-resolution analytical electron microscopy (HR-TEM) (JEM-3010, JEOL Ltd., Tokyo, Japan). Element composition of materials was captured by TEM and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS; JEM-ARM200F, JEOL Ltd., Tokyo, Japan). Crystal structures of core and core@shell nanoparticles were confirmed by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) using a D8 ADVANCE system with Davinci (Bruker AXS GmbH, Karlsruhe, Germany) equipped with Cu Ka radiation and a high speed LynxEye detector.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
