Energy transfer in solution of lanthanide complexes

Interpretation of europium(III) spectra

“…has been studied in glasses [444,445], inorganic compounds [446][447][448], solid molecular compounds (including metal-organic frameworks) [449,450], and in solution [451][452][453][454][455][456][457][458][459][460][461][462].…”

Silica nanoparticles with a substrate switchable luminescence

“…The quenching effect of dyes on lanthanide centered luminescence is also well known [20] and applied in bioanalysis [21] or pH measurements [22]. According to well-known conceptions the quenching effect results from the intermolecular energy transfer from lanthanides to chromophores according to the so-called Förster mechanism [20].…”

“…According to well-known conceptions the quenching effect results from the intermolecular energy transfer from lanthanides to chromophores according to the so-called Förster mechanism [20]. The distance between luminophoric and quenching molecules greatly affects the intermolecular energy transfer [23], thus luminophoric and quenching molecules should be drawn together by binding or collisional process.…”

“…The choice of phenol red molecules as quenching ones is determined by several reasons. The first reason is their quenching effect on the luminescence of lanthanide complexes in solutions [20]. The second reason is the efficient penetration of dye molecules into micellar aggregates [7].…”

Synthesis, Luminescence Properties of Eu (III) and Tb (III) Complexes with a Polyamine Polycarboxylic Ligand as well as Their Binding Characteristics with Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA)

“…4 Based on the different chromophoric antennae and the central Re(III), many novel ligands and complexes have been designed and synthesized. 5,6 Among them, the chromophore of containing pyridine and pyrazole rings is one of the promising ligands, as it can show various coordination modes. 7 And it has been more attractive for their great conjugate structure that can sensitize the emissive states of lanthanide ions through highly efficient intramolecular energy transfer.…”
