The anomalous influence of water on the intensity and lifetime of fluorescence in tris(benzoyltrifluoroacetonate) europium (III)
Abstract
Addition of H2O (D2O) to a Eu(btfa)3 toluene solution enhances the luminescence intensity and lifetime of Eu(btfa)3, a phenomenon due to the formation of associates Eu(btfa)3·nH2O [Eu(btfa)3·nD2O].
