RUDN University Chemists Developed New Magnetic and Luminescent Lanthanide-Siloxane-Based Compounds

Caption

A team of chemists from RUDN University synthesized new organosilicon compounds containing terbium and europium ions. These complexes have an unusual cage-like crystal structure that contains four metal ions. The team was the first to study the magnetic and photophysical properties of such compounds and to observe their magnetic phase transition and luminescence properties.
