Abstract
In this paper, a novel Eu ions-based metal–organic coordination polymer (MOCP) named Eu(1,3,6,8-PTS)(H2O)7·4H2OHbipy (1) (PTS = pyrenetetrasulfonic acid) has been prepared, and its structure, stability, photoluminescence and scintillation properties were systematically investigated. Compound 1 gives a peculiar “snake-shaped” chain structure with the aid of π-π stacking effect of 4,4′-bipyridine auxiliary template. An efficient and stable light emission was detected under X-ray irradiation, which presents an excellent linear response to X-ray dose. Moreover, this compound demonstrates high radiation stability, illustrating its potential as a scintillator for X-ray detection. This work not only provides guidance for the design and fabrication of sulfonic ligand derived MOCPs with Eu (III) ions coordiantion, but also demonstrates the potential of MOCPs scintillators for X-ray detection technology.
