Gd3+-Doped NaYF4:Yb,Er Upconversion Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Luminescence Enhancement, and Anti-Counterfeiting Applications

Precise control over the optical properties of lanthanide-doped upconversion nanomaterials is of fundamental importance for their wide-ranging applications. In this study, Gd3+-doped nanoparticles with enhanced upconversion luminescence were prepared. The influence of Gd3+ doping...

Responses of growth and quality of Glycyrrhiza uralensis to salt-alkali-tolerant microbial inoculant via the remodeling of rhizosphere microenvironments in moderate and severe saline-alkali soils

Abstract Glycyrrhiza uralensis is an ecologically and economically important medicinal species for saline-alkali land restoration in arid northwest China. Nevertheless, excessive soil salinity, alkalinity and nutrient deficiency substantially restrict its growth and degrade medic...
