Quantum yield and brightness

Jean-Claude Bünzli

Brightness has different meaning in different contexts and some of these are reviewed. The scientific definition of brightness does not represent our perception. The current definition is that from the IUPAC Gold Book and is mainly restricted to solutions. ...

Fluorinated β-Diketones for the Extraction of Lanthanide Ions: Photophysical Properties and Hydration Numbers of Their EuIII Complexes

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Frédéric Gumy

Tris(β-diketonato)europium(III) with a series of variably fluorinated ligands derived from 3,5-heptanedione were synthesised with the aim of determining their hydration state under extraction conditions. The number of coordinated water molecules was determ ...

Lighting up cells with lanthanide self-assembled helicates

Jean-Claude Bünzli

Lanthanide bioprobes and bioconjugates are ideal luminescent stains in view of their low propensity to photobleaching, sharp emission lines and long excited state lifetimes permitting time-resolved detection for enhanced sensitivity. We show here how the i ...

Encapsulation of labile trivalent lanthanides into a homobimetallic chromium(III)-containing triple-stranded helicate. Synthesis, characterization, and divergent intramolecular energy transfers

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Frédéric Gumy

The segmental bidentate–tridentate–bidentate ligand L2 reacts with MII (M = Cr, Zn) and LnIII (Ln = La, Eu, Gd, Tb, Lu) to give the heterotrimetallic triple-stranded helicates [MLnM(L2)3]7+. For M = ZnII, the isolated complexes ZnLnZn(L2)37 (Ln = ...

Identifying lifetime as one of the key parameters responsible for the low brightness of lanthanide-based OLEDs

Jean-Claude Bünzli

OLEDs based on lanthanide complexes have decisive optical advantages but are hampered by low brightness. Despite the efforts to optimize several parameters such as quantum yield and charge carrier mobility, there seems to be another key parameter that hind ...

A hybrid erbium(III)-bacteriochlorin near-infrared probe for multiplexed biomedical imaging

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Fan Zhang

Spectrally distinct fluorophores are desired for multiplexed bioimaging. In particular, monitoring biological processes in living mammals needs fluorophores that operate in the 'tissue-transparent' near-infrared (NIR) window, that is, between 700 and 1,700 ...
