Synthesis of a film-forming europium(iii) complex and its organogelation and photoluminescent properties†
Abstract
A trimetallic disc-like europium(III) complex having an organogelation and film-forming property was prepared. The complex showed a much higher PL intensity of the 5D0 → 7F2 transition in the gel state than in the solution state at the same concentration (1 wt%).
