Strong circularly polarized luminescence of mixed lanthanide coordination polymers with control of 4f electronic structures

Abstract

This paper reports chiral mixed Eu(III)–Ln(III) coordination polymers (Ln = Gd and Sm) with a high dissymmetry factor of circularly polarized luminescence (g_CPL = 0.15) for the enhancement of the emission quantum yield (Φ_tot ≥ 50%), achieved via control of 4f electronic structures.
