Abstract
AbstractLuminescent hybrid copolymers are obtained by copolymerizing in bulk methylmethacrylate with a methacrylic acid (MAC) solution containing [n‐Bu4N]2[Mo6Br8(MAC)6], and aliquots of an Er(TMHD)3 complex (TMHD for 2,2,6,6‐tetramethyl‐3,5‐heptanedione) solution. This leads to novel homogeneous and transparent hybrid materials in which the Er3+ infrared luminescence at 1.55 μm, a standard wavelength for telecommunication applications, is up to six time more intense in the presence of Mo6 clusters when samples are irradiated at 476.5 nm. This work demonstrates the outstanding potential of Mo6 clusters, compounds obtained by high‐temperature solid‐state synthesis, in the design of functional hybrid materials via soft chemistry routes.
