Discover Innovations in Luminescence with Layered Double Hydroxides
"The Department of Materials Physics and Mechanics at the Institute of Physics of USP - FMT/IFUSP is excited to share an innovative study conducted by Prof. Danilo Mustafa and his team. This work explores the in situ and ex situ luminescence of Layered Double Hydroxides (LDHs) with rare earth ions and intercalated with mellitic acid."
Study Highlights
- Rare Earth Ions: The study highlights the use of Eu³⁺, Tb³⁺, and Gd³⁺ ions, demonstrating that these LDHs offer high-intensity luminescence in different spectral regions — red, green, and blue, respectively.
- Practical Applications: The findings pave the way for the creation of tunable multicolored materials, with potential applications in white light-emitting lighting devices.
- International Collaboration: This project was developed during Dr. Ercules Teotonio's postdoctoral fellowship at the Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel, Germany, as part of the CAPES/DAAD project under the coordination of Prof. Mustafa.
The study not only enriches the field of materials physics but also offers practical and affordable solutions for the lighting industry.
