Abstract
Abstract Novel Nd(III) complexes, tris(bis-perfluoromethane and ethanesulfonylaminato)neodymium(III)octa(deuterated dimethylsulfoxide) were designed and synthesized to apply to luminescent materials in plastic optical fiber. The IR and the near-IR spectra analyses has been done to estimate the radiationless transition via vibrational excitation of the Nd(III) complexes. [Nd(pms) 3 (DMSO- d 6 ) 8 ] and [Nd(pes) 3 (DMSO- d 6 ) 8 ] in polyhexafluoroisopropylmethacrylate gave a emission quantum yield of 1.3% and 1.6%, which was the largest in luminescent Nd(III) polymers. A research field for telecommunication network using 1.3 μm light would be achieved by luminescent Nd(III) materials encapsulated low-vibrational coordination sites.
