Abstract

ABSTRACTLuminescent lanthanide‐based coordination polymers (LnCPs) present great potential in low‐temperature detection due to their convenience in contactless readout. High quantum yields and energy transfer efficiency are favored by LnCPs as luminescent thermometer. In this work, based on the thermogravimetric analysis and temperature‐dependent powder x‐ray diffraction, coordinated and isolated molecules of [Ln2(mip)3(H2O)8·4H2O]∞ (abbreviated as Ln2MIP) were removed by dehydration process. Combining luminescent measurement and calculation, both quantum yields and energy transfer efficiency between Tb3+ and Eu3+ have been greatly enhanced. Additionally, the Eu3+ intensity of dehydrated Gd0.2Tb1.08Eu0.72MIP displays excellent temperature sensing ability from 77 to 300 K with enhanced relative sensitivity. These results demonstrate the potential of LnCPs in low‐temperature sensing with high quantum yields and energy transfer efficiency.
