Enhanced 1.54 μm luminescence of a perfluorinated erbium complex sensitized by perfluorinated Pt() and Zn() phthalocyanines with 980 nm emission

By the sensitization effect of metallophthalocyanines showing ∼980 nm emission to an erbium complex, a remarkably long average lifetime of 1.05 ms and an optimal PLQY of 13% with a sensitization efficiency of 81 for the Er 3+ 1.54 μm emission are obtained in a perfluorinated organic erbium co-doped system. Metallophthalocyanines with ∼980 nm emission show sensitization effects on an erbium complex. A long lifetime of 1.05 ms, a PLQY of 13%, Er 3+ 1.5 μm emission enhancement of 81 times are obtained in the perfluorinated organic erbium co-doped system.
