According to the crystal field theory, the forbidden selection rules in lanthanide's 4f-4f
transition can be relaxed by highly asymmetric structures around the lanthanide ion. Their …

An initial investigation on the employment of targeted structural alterations, achieved
through the post‐synthesis modification method, for modulation of the thermometric …

Soft-crystals are defined as flexible molecular solids with highly ordered structures and have
attracted attention in molecular sensing materials based on external triggers and …

A series of smart luminescent Eu (III) complexes (C1= Eu (DBM) 3ligand 1, C2= Eu (DBM)
3ligand 2, C3= Eu (DBM) 3ligand 3, C4= Eu (DBM) 3ligand 4, C5= Eu (DBM) 3ligand 5) …

Abstract Diarylacetylenes ArC≡ CAr featuring condensed aromatic hydrocarbon fragments
(Ar) such as naphthalene, anthracene, phenanthrene and pyrene were converted into …

In this study, two novel Pr 3+ complexes with different 1, 3-diketonate ligands were
synthesized and investigated. To study the effect of the ancillary ligand on the energy …

Herein the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) of a Tb (III) complex is reported for the first
time. The Tb (III) complex is composed of three anionic ligands (acac: acetylacetonate) and …

The energy transfer in excited state of lanthanide coordination compounds is here
explained. The typical energy transfer between 4f-4f excited states and excited triplet state of …

Europium complexes attracted generous interest devoted to their red colored emission for
illuminising the grounds of organic light-emitting diodes. In this series, five europium …

In this chapter, we explore the research done by the de Bettencourt-Dias group in
luminescent lanthanide complexes. The group has isolated ligands that sensitize the …
