Dynamic chiral quenching of europium and terbium excited states
Key Points
The aim is to understand the dynamic quenching processes in europium and terbium excited states within specific cationic complexes.
Studied emission properties of europium and terbium excited states.
Analyzed circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in chiral complexes.
Investigated interactions with S and R Trolox stereoisomers.
Dynamic quenching of excited states was observed in the presence of chiral Trolox.
Emission characteristics varied significantly between Δ and Λ stereoisomers.
CPL measurements indicate a selective environment affecting quenching.
Abstract
The nature of dynamic quenching of the europium or terbum excited states in Δ and Λ stereoisomeric cationic complexes by S and R Trolox has been studied by emission and CPL...
