    Abstract:
    Ternary terbium complexes were fully encapsulated and uniformly distributed into the channels of unmodified and modified mesoporous molecule sieves of SBA-15 and characterized by transmission electron micrographs (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectra, inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), and elemental analysis. The luminescent properties for the encapsulated complexes were systematically studied in contrast to the pure complexes, including excitation and emission spectra, fluorescence dynamics, photostability under UV exposure, and the temperature dependence of intensity and lifetime. The results indicate that the excitation bands assigned to the pi-pi* electron transition of the ligands for Tb complexes encapsulated in SBA-15 were split into different components due to decreased symmetry and disappeared at long wavelengths. Owing to suppressed vibration transitions, the outer quantum efficiency of the 5D4-7FJ (J = 0-5) emissions was enhanced largely in comparison to the pure complexes. In addition, the photostability and thermostability of the emissions were also improved considerably.
