摘要
A series of molecular alloy based on rare earth (RE) oxalate (EuxGd1−x)2(C2O4)3(H2O)6 (abbr. as EuxGd1−x-OX, x = 0.1–0.9) were synthesized using hydrothermal reaction. The PXRD profiles of EuxGd1−x-OX (x = 0.1–0.9) match well with the simulated pattern calculated from the single crystal data of Nd2(C2O4)3(H2O)6 reported previously, indicating that the as-prepared molecular alloys are isomorphic to Nd2(C2O4)3(H2O)6. EDS and ICP measurements proved the coexistence of Eu and Gd elements in this series of alloys. The photoluminescent (PL) behaviors of EuxGd1−x-OX (x = 0.1–0.9) as well as the physical mixed RE oxalates solids were carefully studied. It is found that the PL intensity of EuxGd1−x-OX with small amount of Gd3+ ion is obviously enhanced due to reducing dipole–dipole, dipole–quadrupole or quadrupole–quadrupole interaction between emitters of Eu3+ ions as well as energy transfer from Gd3+ ion to Eu3+ ion. This study demonstrates that forming molecular alloy by introducing proper ion is an efficient strategy to get improved PL materials.
