Transition Metal Complexes as Photosensitizers for Near-Infrared Lanthanide Luminescence

Energy transfer (ET) from ferrocene or ruthenium tris(bipyridine) functionalized light‐harvesting units allows the first observation of sensitized near‐infrared (NIR) lanthanide (Ln) luminescence (Lum.; see scheme, Exc.=excitation). Since the donating triplet state of the ruthenium tris(bipyridine)...

Description
Summary:Energy transfer (ET) from ferrocene or ruthenium tris(bipyridine) functionalized light‐harvesting units allows the first observation of sensitized near‐infrared (NIR) lanthanide (Ln) luminescence (Lum.; see scheme, Exc.=excitation). Since the donating triplet state of the ruthenium tris(bipyridine) antenna is luminescent, the sensitization process could be studied in detail.
