Rf. De Farias et al., Spectroscopic study of a europium luminescent complex adsorbed on Si-Ti inorganic-organic hybrid, J COLL I SC, 243(2), 2001, pp. 523-524
Through the sol-gel process, a silicon-titanium inorganic-organic hybrid is
synthesized and used as substrate to study the adsorption and spectroscopy
of a europium. luminescent complex: Eu(fod)(3). The complex and silicon-ti
tanium hybrid were mixed in stoichiometric amounts to produce samples with
1%, 5%, and 10% (m/m) of adsorbed complex, with the matrices being pressed
at 380 mPa for 0.5, 30, and 60 min before spectroscopic analysis. It is ver
ified that the intensity of the D-5(0) --> F-7(2) emission band is dependen
t on the complex/nitrogen ratio and almost independent of the external pres
sure. (C) 2001 Academic Press.
