“…For 2 (Figure ), the excitation sharp lines at 295, 307, 318, 332, 346, 363, 376, 391, 403, 418, 441, 453–480, 500, and 531 nm can be ascribed to the 4 H 15/2 → 4 F 9/2 / 4 I 9/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 4 P 5/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 4 P 3/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 4 G 9/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 4 D 7/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 6 P 5/2 / 4 D 5/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 6 P 7/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 4 L 15/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 6 P 3/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 4 P 5/2 / 6 P 5/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 4 M 17/2 / 4 G 9/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 4 I 11/2 / 4 I 13/2 , 4 H 15/2 → 4 G 5/2 , and 4 H 15/2 → 4 F 3/2 transitions of Sm III , respectively. [23a] The emission spectrum of 2 (Figure ) excited at 404 nm displays the characteristic emissions of Sm III at 562 ( 5 G 2 → 6 H 5/2 ), 597 ( 5 G 2 → 6 H 7/2 ), 643 ( 5 G 2 → 6 H 9/2 ), and 705 nm ( 5 G 2 → 6 H 11/2 ), respectively . The most intense 5 G 2 → 6 H 9/2 emission at 643 nm is responsible for the pink luminescence of the Sm III ion.…”
