Surface modified LnxLa1-xF3 (Ln = Dy, Yb) nanoparticles: Toward bright NIR luminescence

Dye-sensitized lanthanide containing nanoparticles for luminescence based applications

“…104 In a later study, they reported the luminescence properties of rarely studied Dy-based NPs, DyF 3 and Dy-doped LaF 3 , both sensitized by terephthalic acid ( 10 ) with enhanced Dy 3+ NIR emission observed upon surface modification. 105…”

On the Structural Features of Substituted Lanthanide Benzoates

“…However, the luminescence of the complexes these lanthanide ions are least affected by concentration quenching due to the rather large gap between the emitting state energy and the energy of the highest sublevels of the ground state. Such lanthanide ions as samarium, dysprosium or ytterbium are more likely to undergo concentration quenching. Important is that lanthanide‐lanthanide distance is crucial for concentration quenching manifestation, and thus, coordination polymer formation might support the quenching, while mononuclear species luminescence would be quenched less.…”
