Photostability of a highly luminescent europium beta-diketonate complex in imidazolium ionic liquids.
A high quantum yield and an enhanced photostability was found for a europium(III) tetrakis(2-thenoyltrifluoroacetonate) complex after dissolving the complex in a weakly-coordinating imidazolium ionic liquid.
