Elucidating the Mechanism behind the Enhancement of Persistent Luminescence in ZnGa2O4: Cr3+ Nanoparticles upon H2O2 Exposure

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Persistent luminescence (PersL) materials exhibit prolonged emission of light, lasting from seconds to hours after stopping the excitation. At the nanoscale, they have attracted considerable interest for applications in in vivo imaging, photodynamic therapy, and biosensing.

Quantum Electrometry of Non‐Volatile Space Charges in Diamond

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Charges are generated when nitrogen vacancy qubits in diamond are illuminated by light. Transport and trapping in an electric field leads to the formation of large, stable space charge patterns that dynamically screen applied electric fields, impacting electric field sensing and photoelectric detection.
