Abstract
In this work, three new polymer aerogels based on 2-hydroxy ethyl methacrylate (HEMA) complexes with Eu(III), Tb(III) and La(III) are prepared and investigated. The polymer aerogels present strong photoluminescence with emissions located in the red, green and blue regions of the visible spectrum. Depending on the water content used during the preparation path, the consistency of the photoluminescent aerogels varies from rigid, regularly shaped monoliths to a flexible, fibrous material with very low density. The morpho-structural investigation was performed by FT-IR, XPS and SEM. Thermal behavior was also evaluated, while steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy, absolute PLQY and lifetime were used for the investigation of their luminescent properties. The impressive photoluminescent emission located in the red, green and blue areas of the visible spectrum is preserved irrespective of the selected porosity. Their photo-emissive properties, tunable porosity and the convenience of the preparation path could be some arguments for applications as photonic conversion mediums in special-purpose optoelectronic devices or sensors.
