Abstract
This research article deals with the synthesis of ternary Sm3+ complexes with 6,8-dichlorochromone-3-carboxaldehyde through solution-precipitation method. The photometric properties of resultant complexes were tuned by coordinating N-donor heterocyclic ligands with Sm3+ ion. The emission spectra, obtained in the visible region have been studied. Under optical excitation of 370 nm, the complexes displayed characteristic Sm3+-centered emission peaks at ~ 563, 600 and 647 nm in solution as well as in powder state. The complexes showed thermal stability up to 175 °C. The complexes delivered quantum yield as high as 7.91% and longest emission lifetime of 0.564 ms. The color coordinates of the complexes, located in deep orange (in solution) and red (in powder) spectral region, matched well with the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers and European Broadcasting Union. The properties of complexes have been investigated to a significant extent due to their easy synthesis and potential applications as orange-red light emitter in a wide range of photonic applications such as display devices, OLEDs, dashboards, optical systems.
