Color-tunable phosphors of ZnWO4:x mol% Bi3+, 3 mol% Eu3+ (x = 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) were prepared through a precipitation method and their luminescence properties were investigated as a function of Bi3+ concentration. The most intense 616 nm emission indicates that Eu3+ occupies the Zn2+ sites without inversion symmetr…

A bio-based epoxy monomer (GA-II) was synthesized from renewable gallic acid. The aromatic group contained made it capable of being absorbed onto the surface of graphene via strong π–π interactions, which was proven by Raman spectra and UV spectra. The GA-II anchored graphene was easily homogeneously dispersed in the…
