Synthesis and luminescence of some rare earth metal complexes

Abstract

Abstract:In the present paper the synthesis, photoand electroluminescent properties of new rare earth metal complexes prepared and studied at the Razuvaev Institute of Organometallic Chemistry during the last decade are reviewed. The obtained compounds give luminescence in UV, visible and NIR regions. The substituted phenolates, naphtholates, mercaptobenzothiazolate, 8-oxyquinolinolate, polyfluorinated alcoholates and chalcogenophosphinates were used as ligands. The synthesis and structure of unusual three-nuclear sulfidenitride clusters of Nd and Dy are described. The new excitation mechanism of ytterbium phenolates and naphtholates, which includes the stage of reversible reduction of Yb to divalent state and oxidation of the ligands in the excitation process, is discussed.

Heterometallic Rare-Earth Complexes: A Review on Magnetism, Catalysis and Transformation to Nanomaterials

“…The last paragraph describes the use of heterometallic complexes as molecular precursors for synthesizing functional nanomaterials. Because luminescent properties were described thoroughly before [24][25][26], we have not discussed them in this review.…”

OLED Structure Optimization for Pure and Efficient NIR Electroluminescence of Nd3+ Complexes Bearing Fluorinated 1,3-Diketones

“…To date, NIR (near-infrared) emitting lanthanide coordination compounds, specifically those with Nd 3+ , Er 3+ , and Yb 3+ ions, are extensively employed in advanced photonics, optoelectronics, and spectroscopy [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ]. This special interest is explained by the narrow luminescent bands observed in the 880–1600 nm spectral range originating from these ions.…”
