Abstract
A dinuclear Eu(III) organic complex, , was synthesized, where BTFBDEC is 3,6-bis(4,4,4-trifluoro-1,3-butyldiketone)-9-ethyl-carbazole and phen is 1,10-phenanthroline. exhibits high thermal stability, excellent photoluminescence properties, appropriate CIE chromaticity coordinates for red and good quantum yield under near-UV light excitation. An intense red-emitting light-emitting diode (LED) was fabricated by combining with an emitting InGaN chip. The results indicate that is a good candidate as a red component for the fabrication of white LEDs.
