Abstract

This review article focuses on recent advances in sensitized lanthanide luminescence from heteronuclear complexes with metal-organic chromophores as light-harvesting sensitizer through intercomponent energy transfer. Depending on the ligands and the metal ions, p–f, d–f and f–f heteronuclear assemblies exhibit various colored visible or NIR (near infrared) luminescence following energy transfer from metal-organic chromophores. When the emission of metal-organic sensitizer shows complementary color with the sensitized lanthanide luminescence, white light emitting is successfully generated by incomplete energy transfer to the lanthanide center.
