Luminescent Hybrid Materials Based on Polymers of Poly(Alpha-Fluoroacrylates) Doped with Tb(III) Complex

Abstract

This study is devoted to the development of efficient luminescent hybrid materials excited by UV radiation and featuring narrow luminescence lines as well as light, humidity, and temperature resistance. As a luminescent material, a terbium ion coordination compound introduced into the matrix of an organofluorine polymer is used. It has been shown that efficient excitation transfer to electronic levels of the terbium ion can be achieved by proper ligand selection. The polymer matrix material does not affect the luminescence properties of the Tb(III) coordination compound.
