Abstract

A novel series of organic/inorganic/polymeric hybrid materials have been constructed from covalently bonding rare earth complexes into the inorganic matrix and polymer backbone. Among functional linkage, 3-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane is used to modify the hydroxyl group of p-hydroxycinnamic acid via substitution reaction to form the precursor, and the precursor is subsequently used to covalently bonding to acrylic acid, methyl acrylate, and vinyltriethoxysilane, respectively, through copolymerization reaction to form the organic/inorganic/polymeric network. In addition, we introduce the monomer 1,10-phenanthroline as the second reagent ligand for constructing the ternary luminescent hybrid material systems (abbreviated as HC-PMA-RE, HC = p-hydroxycinnamic acid and 3-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane). The physical characterization and especially the photoluminescence property of ternary system are studied in detail, which present the regular microstructure and characteristic photoluminescence.
