A self-assembled, luminescent europium cholate hydrogel: a novel approach towards lanthanide sensitization.
We propose a new self-assembly based strategy for the design of novel lanthanide based luminescent materials. In this approach a europium hydrogel is prepared and sensitization is achieved by doping the gel with pyrene in a non-coordinated fashion.
