Characterization of spectroscopic of Pr(DBM)3(TPPO)2 containing poly(methyl methacrylate).
The absorption and fluorescence spectra of Pr(DBM)3(TPPO)2 (DBM: dibenzoylmethane, TPPO: triphenylphosphine oxide) containing poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were measured. The energy levels are assigned and analyzed in terms of the free-ion Hamiltonian model. From the data available in the absorption spectrum, various spectroscopic parameters such as the spherically symmetric part of the free-ion Hamiltonian (E(AVG)), Slater-Condon (F2, F4, F6), spin-orbit interaction (zeta), Judd-Ofelt (omega2, omega4, omega6) parameters and the reduced matrix elements are derived. The radiative properties of Pr(DBM)3(TPPO)2 containing PMMA were also predicted according to the Judd-Ofelt theory. The values of the fluorescence branching ratio and the emission cross section of 3P0 --> 3F2 fluorescence transition revealed that Pr(DBM)3(TPPO)2 containing PMMA is an efficient luminescent material.
