Abstract:Luminescent aerogels based on sodium alginate cross-linked with ions of rare earth elements (Eu3+, Tb3+, Sm3+) and containing phenanthroline, thenoyltrifluoroacetone, dibenzoylmethane, and acetylacetone as ligands introduced into the matrix during the impregnation of alginate aerogels (AEG), were obtained for the first time in a supercritical carbon dioxide medium. The impregnation method used made it possible to introduce organically soluble sensitizing ligands into polysaccharide matrices over the entire thi… Show more
“…The intensity of the luminescence bands changed after impregnation, while the nature of the influence of the organic additives (ligands) on the luminescent properties of REE ions depended on the nature of both the ion and the ligand. Thus, the authors demonstrated that, upon SC impregnation, ligands could penetrate and act as luminescence sensitizers of rare earth ions throughout the entire thickness of aerogels [7].…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
