Luminescence Properties of Materials with Eu(III) Complexes:  Role of Ligand, Coligand, Anion, and Matrix

Abstract: This study focuses on luminescent materials based on the antenna effect and prepared by the sol−gel method. These materials are composed of a Eu(III) complex (luminescence center) entrapped in a xerogel matrix. Luminescence properties of the lanthanide-based emitting materials depend on the efficiency of energy transfer from the absorption center (ligand) to the emission center (central ion) and on the concentration of quenchers (O−H oscillators) surrounding the central ion. In this study, such luminescence pr… Show more

“…10,11 To explore the potential of the complexes for photonic applications (light-converting devices), [12][13][14][15][16][17] it is useful to incorporate the complexes in an inert host matrix. [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] A problem often encountered upon embedding of the luminescent complexes in the host matrix is the nonhomogeneous distribution of the compounds, 28,29 which leads to clustering of lanthanide ions and hence a decrease of the luminescence intensity. 30,31 A more homogeneous distribution of the lanthanide complex in the host matrix can be achieved by covalent coupling of the complexes to this host matrix.…”

“…The photoluminescent behaviour of these complexes incorporated in solid matrices is very interesting. The preparation of silica composites containing luminescent complexes seems a promising strategy, since the resulting materials can be prepared at room temperature by employing the sol-gel method, hence avoiding thermal degradation of the complex [4][5][6][7][8]. The SiO 2 matrices also have good mechanical and chemical stability, optical transparency, and are easily prepared using well-known procedures.…”
