“…In this sense, one-dimensional (1D) coordination chains with appropriately concentrated Nd 3+ units would be “ideal” if interchain interaction can be effectively suppressed. Actually, the coordination spheres of Nd 3+ should keep stable during device fabrication, and therefore ligands with strong coordination abilities, e.g., β-diketone and phosphine oxide, are desired for enhancing processability. , However, except for a nonprocessable Nd-MOF, all reported Nd 3+ complexes containing β-diketone and phosphine oxide ligands were mononuclear until present. − Nd 3+ coordination polymers with well-defined structures were absent, let alone lanthanide coordination polymer-based RDWAs. It is already demonstrated that aromatic ligands can effectively improve absorption ability of the complexes. − Especially, rigid phosphine oxide ligands markedly enhanced NIR emissions of mononuclear Nd 3+ complexes through alleviating low-frequency vibration-induced energy loss, in addition to their tunable energy levels well matching with those of primary ligands and Nd 3+ ions. , Nonetheless, with respect to developing high-performance Nd 3+ coordination polymers, excited-state quenching by vibrational de-excitation and interpolymer interactions should be simultaneously suppressed through enhancing both ligand molecular and coordination rigidities.…”
