Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In this work, a new type of naphthalene dye was synthesized for detecting nitro explosives in solution and mesoporous film system. The fluorescence quenching mechanism between dye and explosive was determined. For detecting nitro explosives in gas system, mesoporous silica films doped with this fluorescent dye were successfully fabricated using the sol-gel technology with different templates. Two-dimensional hexagonal structure mesoporous silica film was found sensitive to traces of nitroaromatic trinitrotoluene. When enlarging the pore size, to improve the sensitivity, a lower sensitivity was actually obtained. This can be explained by the small molecule diameter of the explosive and the relatively large surface area of the mesoporous films. The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area can be enlarged by a suitable 3D pore channel structure so that the fluorescence quenching sensitivity is improved for the nitro aromatic compounds vapors. Optimizing the pore size and channel structure can therefore well improve the sensing efficiency in this system. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media New York.
