Bright pink luminescence of Er(III)-based Metal Organic Frameworks
AbstractMetal organic frameworks (MOFs) or coordination polymers (CPs) have gained great importance in recent years. The real reason for this interest, which is gained by scientists, is not only the interesting topological structures of such materials, but also the presence of magnetism, gas storage or separation, sensors, optics and many other applications of these materials [1-5]. When metal organic frameworks are examined within themselves, it can be said that coordination polymers containing lanthanides (Ln-MOFs) have been recently studied extensively because their characteristic luminescence properties within these potential applications such as analytical sensor, OLED technology and fiber amplifiers [6-8]. Among all Ln-MOFs, the Er-MOFs are important luminescent activators because they exhibit many strong sharp emission peaks in the visible and NIR region.
