General description

Terbium(III) nitrate pentahydrate can be used as a dopant/precursor to prepare luminescent phosphors for various applications such as optical ceramics, white light emitting diodes, and photodynamic therapy.

Application

Terbium(III) nitrate pentahydrate can be used as:
  • A precursor to prepare Ce-doped terbium aluminum garnets by the photo-induced method.
  • A dopant to synthesize emission-tunable luminescent hydroxyapatite probe for bioimaging.
  • A starting material to prepare metal-organic frameworks for green laser applications.

We propose an alternative approach for the development of analytical methods based on terbium-sensitized luminescence (TSL). TSL is based on the complexation between Tb(III) ions and fluorescent organic compounds that have appropriate functional groups to complex with Tb(III). We report

Gadolinium is extensively used in pharmaceuticals and is very toxic, so its sensitive detection is mandatory. This work presents the elaboration of a gadolinium chemical sensor based on 2-methylpyridine-substituted cyclam thin films, deposited on gold electrodes, using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy

The ternary terbium(III) complexes [Tb(HDAP)3⋅biq], [Tb(HDAP)3⋅dmph] and [Tb(HDAP)3⋅bathophen] were prepared by using methoxy substituted hydroxyketone ligand HDAP (2-hydroxy-4,6-dimethoxyacetophenone) and an ancillary ligand 2,2-biquinoline or 5,6-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline or bathophenanthroline respectively. The ligand and synthesized complexes were characterised based on elemental analysis, FT-IR
