Blue luminescent N,S-doped carbon dots encapsulated in red emissive Eu-MOF to form dually emissive composite for reversible anti-counterfeit ink.
TL;DR: In this article, a 3D red light emission microporous europium(iii) metal-organic framework was constructed from a zigzag [Eu3(COO)8] chain and π-electron-rich terphenyl-tetracarboxylate.
Abstract: Lanthanide metal-organic frameworks (Ln-MOFs) have demonstrated great potential in luminescence sensing and optical anti-counterfeiting. High-security anti-counterfeiting technology is of great importance and requires the development of universal luminescent materials with multiple modes of emission and adjustable photoluminescence. Herein, a 3D red light emission microporous europium(iii) metal-organic framework [Eu3(OH)(1,3-db)2(H2O)4]·3H2O (1) (1,3-db = 1,3-di(3',5'-dicarboxylpheny) benzene) was constructed from a zigzag [Eu3(COO)8] chain and π-electron-rich terphenyl-tetracarboxylate. Notably, the quenched fluorescence of 1 under hydrogen chloride vapor could be recovered upon fuming by a vapor of Et3N. Most strikingly, the strong blue light emission by nitrogen and sulfur co-doped carbon dots (N,S-CDs) could be encapsulated in 1 to generate a dual-emission composite, namely, N,S-CDs@Eu-MOF, which shows solvent-dependent photoluminescence: N,S-CD-related blue luminescence in water and Eu-MOF-related red emission in organic solvents. Taking advantage of the above unique reversible fluorescent behavior, Eu-MOF and N,S-CDs@Eu-MOF are prepared as fluorescent high-security inks to achieve data encryption and decryption on specific flower patterns.

TL;DR: In this paper, Mesoporous graphene doped with both N and S atoms (N-S-G) was prepared in one step and studied as an electrochemical catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR).
Abstract: Doping duo: Mesoporous graphene doped with both N and S atoms (N-S-G) was prepared in one step and studied as an electrochemical catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The catalyst shows excellent ORR performance comparable to that of commercial Pt/C. The outstanding activity of N-S-G results from both the large number and the synergistic effect of the dopant heteroatoms.

TL;DR: The G QDs are capable of converting blue light into white light when the GQDs are coated onto a blue light emitting diode and the photoluminescence quantum yields were determined to be 7-11%.
Abstract: Glucose-derived water-soluble crystalline graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with an average diameter as small as 1.65 nm (∼5 layers) were prepared by a facile microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. The GQDs exhibits deep ultraviolet (DUV) emission of 4.1 eV, which is the shortest emission wavelength among all the solution-based QDs. The GQDs exhibit typical excitation wavelength-dependent properties as expected in carbon-based quantum dots. However, the emission wavelength is independent of the size of the GQDs. The unique optical properties of the GQDs are attributed to the self-passivated layer on the surface of the GQDs as revealed by electron energy loss spectroscopy. The photoluminescence quantum yields of the GQDs were determined to be 7–11%. The GQDs are capable of converting blue light into white light when the GQDs are coated onto a blue light emitting diode.

TL;DR: This tutorial review covers the main luminescent processes and focuses especially on metal-based luminescence of coordination polymers and MOFs.
Abstract: The rapidly growing number of luminescent coordination polymers (CPs) and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) illustrates high interest as well as accessibility of such materials. The interplay between inorganic and organic components in these materials offers a large number of viable luminescence processes. The enormous variability of available ligand–metal combinations opens the possibility of creating luminescence “by design”, based on a proper understanding of the processes involved. Together with the multifunctionality of MOFs (e.g. porosity) further options like sensing become accessible. This tutorial review covers the main luminescence processes and focuses especially on metal-based luminescence of coordination polymers and MOFs.
