Abstract
A series of gelatin-based composite films (gf) were prepared by doping Eu(TTA)3(H2O)2, Eu(TTA)3bipy, or Eu(TTA)3phen respectively into type-E or -B gelatin film substrate. All of B-gf and the E-gf doped Eu(TTA)3phen were realized with red luminescence under 365 nm excitation, while only slight blue luminescence originated from gelatin substrate can be observed in E-gf doped Eu(TTA)3(H2O)2 or Eu(TTA)3bipy. A UV-absorption competition between substrate and dopant was confirmed to decide the luminescent properties of gf. Weaker UV absorption of B-gelatin ensures that Eu(TTA)3, regardless of ancillary ligand, can obtain sufficient excitation energy for luminescence emission. While only Eu(TTA)3phen possesses a strong enough ability to absorb UV against E-gelatin. Based on the optimal matching principle of substrate and dopant, luminescent gelatin-based hydrogel (gh) doped Eu(TTA)3phen was prepared. A ‘dual effect’ mechanism was proposed for explaining metal-ion sensing applications. Among various metal ions, furthermore, both B and E types of Eu(TTA)3phen@gh exhibited similar significant luminescence quenching for Fe3+ with a detection limit of about 1.15 μmol/L.
期刊介绍:
The journal provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies and reviews related to the electronic, electrochemical, ionic, magnetic, optical, and biosensing properties of solid state materials in bulk, thin film and particulate forms. Papers dealing with synthesis, processing, characterization, structure, physical properties and computational aspects of nano-crystalline, crystalline, amorphous and glassy forms of ceramics, semiconductors, layered insertion compounds, low-dimensional compounds and systems, fast-ion conductors, polymers and dielectrics are viewed as suitable for publication. Articles focused on nano-structured aspects of these advanced solid-state materials will also be considered suitable.
