Europium 1,3-di(thienyl)propane-1,3-diones with outstanding properties for temperature sensing
(2015)
The synthesis of novel Eu complexes with 1,3-di(thienyl)propane-1,3-diones as ligands as well as their luminescence properties in different polymers are reported. The new temperature sensitive paints (TSPs) exhibit not only exceptional high temperature sensitivity over a wide range of temperatures but are also characterized by negligible pressure sensitivity and marked photostability. This is why they are outstandingly suitable for applications, e.g. in aerodynamics and hydrodynamics.
A strongly fluorescent organic semiconducting polymer doped with a highly
temperature dependent fluorescent europium(III) complex is converted into a
nanosized material that is capable of optically sensing temperature (T) in the
range from 0 to 50 °C via two-photon excitation at 720 nm. The nanosensors
are prepared from a blue-fluorescent polyfluorene that acts as both a lightharvesting
antenna (to capture two-photon energy) and an energy donor in a
fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) system. The photonic energy
absorbed by the polymer is transferred to the T-sensitive red-luminescent
europium complex contained in the nanoparticles. The close spatial proximity
of the donor and the acceptor warrants efficient FRET. A poly(ethylene glycol)-
co-poly(propylene oxide) block copolymer is also added to render the particles
biocompatible. It is shown that T can be calculated from a) the intensity of
the luminescence of the europium complex, b) the ratio of the intensities of
the red and blue luminescence, or c) the T-dependent luminescence lifetime
of the Eu(III) complex.
