Abstract:

Ternary lanthanide hexafluoroacetylacetonate complex with triphenylphoshine oxide, Eu0.4Tb0.4Gd0.2(HFA)3(TPPO)2(HFA=hexafluoroacetylacetonate, TPPO=triphenylphoshine oxide), was synthesized and identified by elemental analysis and FTIR. The photoluminescence(PL) spectra were measured and the characteristic transitions of Eu3+ and Tb3+ were observed. Temperature dependent PL properties of the ternary complex were also studied as well as the influences of Tb3+ and Gd3+ ions on PL properties of Eu3+ ions. As a result, the phonon assisted energy transfer from Tb3+ ions to Eu3+ ions, which enhanced the characteristic fluorescence intensity of Eu3+ ions at room temperature, was observed, and the sample exhibits different luminescent colors at different temperatures. The decay curves from the 5D0 level of europium ions were measured at various temperatures and the lifetimes were obtained from fitting the data. It is seen that the lifetime decreases with increase in temperature. The complex is promising for being used as temperature detector and thermal-sensitive probe.
