Abstract
This article presents four ternary terbium complexes based on fluorinated 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTFA) and N donor bidentate neutral ligands. The prepared complexes were examined by elemental study, electrochemical analysis, spectroscopically and thermo-gravimetrically. Spectral analysis shows the bonding of Tb3+ ion with oxygen and nitrogen atom of diketone and neutral ligand respectively. Upon excitation in UV region, synthesized terbium complexes show luminescence in green region of electromagnetic spectrum. Photoluminescence emission spectra of complexes do not show any ligand based peak suggesting the effective transferal of energy from ligand to metal ion. Green emanation by terbium complexes is owing to intense peak ~547nm (5D4 → 7F5). The outcome of emission data and CIE coordinates correlate with each other and affirms the utility of green luminous complexes as potential emissive material for optoelectronic gadgets applied in lighting system.
