Controlling the energy transfer in lanthanide–organic frameworks for the production of white-light emitting materials

Abstract

White-light emitting Ln-MOFs ([Ln2(Mell)(H2O)8]) were obtained via LBL epitaxial growth.

On the Synthesis and Characterization of Lanthanide Metal-Organic Frameworks

“…This is in a good agreement with the literature data [16,17]. The synthesized Nd, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu metal-organic frameworks, however, displayed very weak or even undetectable fluorescence at excitation wavelengths of 250-400 nm.…”

“…The main mass loss, which continuously occurred up to 400-450 • C, is assigned to the decomposition of DMF. At higher temperatures (above 450 • C) the mass loss is associated with final decomposition of MOFs and formation of Ln 2 O 2 CO 3 , or Ln 2 (CO 3 ) 3 and Ln 2 O 3 [16][17][18]. …”

Multi-Emissive Lanthanide-Based Coordination Polymers for Potential Application as Luminescent Bar-Codes

“…[4][5][6][7][8][9] Indeed, these compounds, that present fascinating molecular structures, [10][11] exhibit interesting and original magnetic 12 and optical [13][14][15][16][17][18][19] properties. They could find their application in various technological fields such as light and display, [20][21][22][23][24] chemical sensing, [25][26][27][28] thermometric sensing [29][30][31][32] and fight against counterfeiting, [33][34][35] for instance.…”

A new family of lanthanide-based coordination polymers with azoxybenzene-3,3′,5,5′-tetracarboxylic acid as ligand

“…Because of the unique optical properties of the lanthanide ions [25][26][27] much work has been devoted to the modulation of the intensity and color of the luminescence of lanthanide-based coordination polymers [28][29][30][31]. One of the challenge in that field is to produce intense white light [3, 6, [32][33]. The red and green components can be easily obtained using luminescence of the Eu 3+ and Tb 3+ ions respectively [34].…”
