Energy efficiency is in! New inorganic luminescent materials can help to increase energy
efficiency when used in plasma display panels and white‐light‐emitting diodes (see color …

In nature, the elements of the inorganic part of the periodic table are found in three forms:
metals, ions in salts & minerals, and ions in solution. The ions may be coordinated to simple …

Long persistent phosphors (LPPs) have drawn tremendous research interest owing to their
mysterious optical phenomena and widespread applications. LPPs in the ultraviolet‐C …
