Synthesis of luminescent hybrid materials in the PbF2-La(Y)F3- (8-hydroxyquinolate) lithium system by co-precipitation technique

Organic-inorganic luminescent hybrid materials with an inorganic matrix based on mixed lead and rare-earth fluorides and (8-hydroxyquinolate) lithium as an organic phosphor by co-precipitation from aqueous solutions have been synthesized. Their phase compositions and spectral characteristics have been investigated. The synthesized hybrid materials showed efficient broadband photoluminescence in the 390–700 nm region.
