2,1,3-Benzoselenadiazole as Mono- and Bidentate N-Donor for Heteroleptic Cu(I) Complexes: Synthesis, Characterization and Photophysical Properties by Valentina Ferraro, Fabian Hoffmann, Olaf Fuhr, Burkhard Luy, Stefan Bräse

“…The lifetimes comprised between 121 and 159 μs support the involvement of triplet excited states in the emission process. The photoluminescent properties of [Cu(BSeD)(PPh₃)₂(ClO₄)] were supported by TDDFT computations, and the emission was predicted at 710 nm and ascribed to a metal-to-ligand charge transfer (³MLCT) process, in agreement with the experimental data.…”

Preparation of Glass-Ceramic Materials by Controlled Crystallization of Eu₂O₃-Doped WO₃-B₂O₃-La₂O₃ Glas... by Aneliya Yordanova, Margarita Milanova, Lyubomir Aleksandrov, Reni Iordanova, Peter Tzvetkov, Pavel Markov, Petia Petrova

“…By XRD and TEM analysis, crystallization of β-La₂W₂O₉ and La₂WO₆ crystalline phases has been proved. Photoluminescent spectra showed increased emission in the resulting glass-ceramic samples compared to the parent glass sample due to higher asymmetry of Eu³⁺ ions in the obtained crystalline phases, where the active Eu³⁺ ions are incorporated. …”

Structures and Spectroscopy Studies of Two M(II)-Phosphonate Coordination Polymers Based on Alkaline Earth Metals (M = Ba, Mg) by Kui-Rong Ma, Chun-Li Wei, Yu Zhang, Yu-He Kan, Ming-Hui Cong, Xiao-Jing Yang

“…Free metal cations   [MgO6]n2+ and uncoordinated anions (L-H2)n2- are joined together by static electric force. Results of photoluminescent measurement indicate three main emission bands centered at 300 nm, 378.5 nm, and 433 nm for 1 and 302 nm, 378 nm, and 434.5 nm for 2 (λex=235 nm), respectively. …”

Mono- and Mixed Metal Complexes of Eu³⁺, Gd³⁺, and Tb³⁺ with a Diketone, Bearing Pyrazole Moiety and CHF₂-Group: Structure, Color Tuning... by Victoria E. Gontcharenko, Mikhail A. Kiskin, Vladimir D. Dolzhenko, Vladislav M. Korshunov, Ilya V. Taydakov, Yury A. Belousov

“…Three novel lanthanide complexes with the ligand 4,4-difluoro-1-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)butane-1,3-dione (HL), namely [LnL₃(H₂O)₂], Ln = Eu, Gd and Tb, were synthesized, and, according to single-crystal X-ray diffraction, are isostructural. The photoluminescent properties of these compounds, as well as of three series of mixed metal complexes [Eu_xTb_1-xL₃(H₂O)₂] (Eu_xTb_1-xL₃), [EuxGd_1-xL₃(H₂O)₂] (Eu_xGd_1-xL₃), and [Gd_xTb_1-xL₃(H₂O)₂] (Gd_xTb_1-xL₃), were studied. …”

Tuning of Luminescent and Magnetic Properties via Metal Doping of Zn-BTC Systems by Taoguang Qu, Qiang Wei, Carlos Ordonez, Jennifer Lindline, Michael Petronis, Marina S. Fonari, Tatiana Timofeeva

“…Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) of these compounds also revealed that all MOFs had similar stability up to ~450 °C. Solid state photoluminescent studies indicated that {Zn-Mn-BTC}{Me2NH2+}, {Zn-Cd-BTC}{Me2NH2+}, and {Zn-Ca-BTC}{Me2NH2+} had a significant red shifting effect compared to the original {Zn-BTC}{Me2NH2+} MOF. …”

Development of luminescent europium-based phosphor films by Chong, Mun Kit

“…It has been found that annealing in the rapid thermal processor (RTP) and in vacuum environment is more efficient than that in oxygen and nitrogen atmosphere to eliminate H2O impurities and hence yields the Y2O3:Eu3+ phosphor films with higher photoluminescent (PL) intensity at wavelength of about 613nm (5D0-7F2 emission transition). …”
