The present work describes a complementary experimental and theoretical investigation of the spectroscopic properties of the four isostructural 3D Ln-MOFs (wherein PDC = pyrazole-3,5-dicarboxylate, [La2(PDC)3(H2O)4]·2H2O (1), [(La0.9Eu0.1)2(PDC)3(H2O)4]·2H2O (2), [(La0.9Tb0.1)2(PDC)3(H2O)4]·2H2O (3) and [(La0.9Eu0.5Tb0.5)2(PDC)3(H2O)4]·2H2O (4)). The experimental data and theoretical calculations show that the singular photophysical properties presented by these Ln-MOFs are induced by strong interaction between the Ln(3+) ions.

Many phosphor hosts, for example, nitrides and sulfides, often face challenges such as hydrolysis and oxidation, limiting their application in phosphor-converted white light-emitting diodes (pc-LEDs). In this study, we developed a highly humidity-resistant yellow-green-emitting phosphor BaSiNO:Ce (BSNO:Ce). The DFT calculations revealed a high Debye temperature (Θ = 1159 K), indicating a rigid crystal structure that contributes to the photoluminescence thermal quenching resistance of BSNO.

Energy transfer processes in nanohybrids are at the focal point of conceptualizing, designing, and realizing novel energy-harvesting systems featuring nanocrystals that absorb photons and transfer their energy unidirectionally to surface-immobilized functional dyes. Importantly, the functionality of these dyes defines the ultimate application. Herein, CsPbBr perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) are interfaced with zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) dyes featuring carboxylic acid.

Lead-free halide double perovskites (DPs) have become a research hotspot in the field of photoelectrons due to their unique optical properties and flexible compositional tuning. However, the luminescence of DPs exhibits thermal quenching at high temperatures, which severely affects their further application. Herein, we synthesized the rare earth Dy and transition metal Mn codoped CsNaYCl rare earth DPs and characterized the optical properties using temperature-dependent photoluminescence spectra and time-resolved photoluminescence decay profiles at different temperatures.

We report the synthesis of ethylammonium lead iodide (EAPbI) colloidal nanocrystals as another member of the lead halide perovskites family. The insertion of an unusually large -cation (274 pm in diameter) in the perovskite structure, hitherto considered unlikely due to the unfavorable Goldschmidt tolerance factor, results in a significantly larger lattice parameter compared to the Cs-, methylammonium- and formamidinium-based lead halide perovskite homologues. As a consequence, EAPbI nanocrystals are highly unstable, evolving to a nonperovskite δ-EAPbI polymorph within 1 day.

Thioxanthone (TX) molecules and their derivatives are well-known photoactive compounds. Yet, there exist only a handful of luminescent systems combining TX with transition metals. Recently, we reported a TX-based PSP pincer ligand () that appears as a promising platform for filling this niche.
