Colorimetry of Luminescent Lanthanide Complexes

Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Julien Alexandre Andres

Europium, terbium, dysprosium, and samarium are the main trivalent lanthanide ions emitting in the visible spectrum. In this work, the potential of these ions for colorimetric applications and colour reproduction was studied. The conversion of spectral dat ...

Molecular Complex of Tb in the +4 Oxidation State

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Ivica Zivkovic

Lanthanides (Ln) usually occur in the +3, or more recently the +2, oxidation states. The only example of an isolated molecular Ln(4+) so far remains Ce4+. Here we show that the +4 oxidation state is also accessible in a molecular compound of terbium as dem ...

Synthesis of molecular complexes for small molecule activation

Julie Renée Michelle Andrez

The redox chemistry of f-elements is drawing the attention of inorganic chemists due to their unusual reaction pathways. Notably low-valent f-element complexes have been shown to be able to activate small molecules such as CO2 and N2 in mild conditions. Co ...

The luminescence of NaxEu3+(2−x)/3MoO4 scheelites depends on the number of Eu-clusters occurring in their incommensurately modulated structure

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Gervais Chapuis, Alla Arakcheeva, Philip Pattison, Dmitry Logvinovich, Svetlana Eliseeva

Scheelite related compounds with general formula Mn(XO4)m are of interest owing to their optical properties, stability and relatively simple preparation. Eu3+-containing scheelites are considered as red emitting phosphors and the main factors affecting the ...
