Abstract
We demonstrate multiple roles for the organic linker in luminescent lanthanide-organic thin films grown with the strongly emerging atomic/molecular layer deposition technique. Besides rendering the hybrid thin film mechanically flexible and keeping the lanthanide nodes at a distance adequate to avoid concentration quenching, the organic moieties can act as efficient sensitizers for the lanthanide luminescence. We investigate six different aromatic organic precursors in combination with Eu3+ ions to reveal that by introducing different nitrogen species within the aromatic ring, it is possible to extend the excitation wavelength area from the UV range to the visible range. This opens new horizons for the application space of these efficiently photoluminescent thin-film materials.Description
