Abstract

Lanthanide coordination polymers (Ln‐CPs) are excellent candidates for designing white light materials due to their adjustable fluorescent characteristic by decorating organic ligands, changing metal centers and including guests. However, low quantum yield, weak blue emission, high prices and supply risks have hindered the application and developments of the pure Ln‐CPs materials. Herein, we have designed a new white color composite material capable of white light‐emission upon excitation at 338 nm, which fabricated by compositing a graphitic‐phase nitrogen carbon (g‐C3N4) treated with nitric acid and lanthanide‐based complexes, with the photoluminescencequantum yield (QY) in solid state reaching 11.7 %. WLEDs constructed by depositing the (g‐C3N4)0.783/Eu0.133/Tb0.083‐dbpt [dbpt = 3‐(3,5‐dicarboxylphenyl)‐5‐(pyrazinyl)‐1H‐1,2,4‐triazole] composites on a commercial UV LED chip feature a CIE chromaticity coordinate at (0.33, 0.33), high color rendering index (CRI) of 94.6. Compared to conventional white light‐emission Ln‐CPs materials of La0.928Eu0.045Tb0.027‐dbpt and La0.896Eu0.104‐dbpt reveals that (g‐C3N4)0.783/Eu0.133/Tb0.083‐dbpt composites have higher QY and CRI values.
