Toxicity of lanthanum oxide (La2O3) nanoparticles in aquatic environments.
This study demonstrates the acute toxicity of lanthanum oxide nanoparticles (La2O3 NP) on two sentinel aquatic species, fresh-water microalgae Chlorella sp. and the crustacean Daphnia magna. The morphology, size and charge of the nanoparticles were systematically studied. The algal growth inhibition assay confirmed absence of toxic effects of La2O3 NP on Chlorella sp., even at higher concentrat...
متن کاملToxicity of Two Different Sized Lanthanum Oxides in Cultured Cells and Sprague-Dawley Rats
In recent years, the use of both nano- and micro-sized lanthanum has been increasing in the production of optical glasses, batteries, alloys, etc. However, a hazard assessment has not been performed to determine the degree of toxicity of lanthanum. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify the toxicity of both nano- and micro-sized lanthanum oxide in cultured cells and rats. After id...
متن کاملSol gel synthesis of multiphase lanthanum oxicarbonate and langasite thin films
Precursors of lanthanum oxide and of (3La2O3, 5Ga2O3, SiO2) system were first elaborated then thermally decomposed into polycrystalline lanthanum oxide and langasite La3Ga5SiO14. The as prepared lanthanum oxide powder was then hydrated and carbonated to give hydroxicarbonates: thermal decomposition of these complex system La2O3-X(OH)y(CO3)z was studied by Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy...
متن کاملNanoscale assembly of lanthanum silica with dense and porous interfacial structures
This work reports on the nanoscale assembly of hybrid lanthanum oxide and silica structures, which form patterns of interfacial dense and porous networks. It was found that increasing the molar ratio of lanthanum nitrate to tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) in an acid catalysed sol-gel process alters the expected microporous metal oxide silica structure to a predominantly mesoporous structure abo...
متن کاملThe interfaces of lanthanum oxide-based subnanometer EOT gate dielectrics
When pushing the gate dielectric thickness of metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) devices down to the subnanometer scale, the most challenging issue is the interface. The interfacial transition layers between the high-k dielectric/Si and between the high-k dielectric/gate metal become the critical constraints for the smallest achievable film thickness. This work presents a detailed study on the int...
