Circularly Polarized Lanthanide Luminescence from Langmuir-Blodgett Films Formed from Optically Active and Amphiphilic EuIII-Based Self-Assembly Complexes

Europium union: The development of chiral amphiphilic self‐assembled complexes by europium(III)‐directed synthesis is described. These systems form stable Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) films on quartz slides to give stable monolayers that exhibit the first example of time‐delayed EuIII‐centered emission an...

Summary:Europium union: The development of chiral amphiphilic self‐assembled complexes by europium(III)‐directed synthesis is described. These systems form stable Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) films on quartz slides to give stable monolayers that exhibit the first example of time‐delayed EuIII‐centered emission and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) from an LB film.
