Cathodic electroluminescence in inorganic liquids: Formation of excited cations in electrode processes

Solutions of luminescent inorganic cations in phosphorus oxychloride electroluminesce when a direct current is passed through the liquids. The electroluminescence originates from the surface of the cathode. The formation of excited ions in the cathodic process is quite general. Electroluminescence i...

Summary:Solutions of luminescent inorganic cations in phosphorus oxychloride electroluminesce when a direct current is passed through the liquids. The electroluminescence originates from the surface of the cathode. The formation of excited ions in the cathodic process is quite general. Electroluminescence in the ultraviolet, visible and infrared regions is observed.
