Coordination Modulation Induced Synthesis of Nanoscale Eu1‐xTbx‐Metal‐Organic Frameworks for Luminescent Thin Films

Strategies for synthesizing of nanoscale single or bimetallic lanthanide metal-organic framework (MOF) materials and their transformation into Eu1-xTbx-MOF thin films are reported. The thin films prepared via spin coating deposition method are smooth, dense and mechanically stable. They also exhibit marked luminescent properties and efficient Tb3+-to-Eu3+ energy transferability.
