Spectra analysis of Nd(DBM)3(TPPO)2 in MMA solution and PMMA matrix

Abstract:
The absorption spectra of Nd(DBM)3(TPPO)2 (DBM = dibenzoylmethane; TPPO = triphenylphosphine oxide) in methyl methacrylate (MMA) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) were measured. Slater-Condon parameters (F2, F4, F6), Lander parameter (zeta4f), nephelauxetic effect parameters (beta, delta) and Judd-Ofelt parameters (Omega2, Omega4, Omega6) were calculated on the basis of the absorption spectra. Analysis of the relationship between the structure of rare-earth complexes and the nephelauxetic effect, Judd-Ofelt parameter Omega2 was carried out. The radiative properties of Nd(DBM)3(TPPO)2 in PMMA were also predicted according to the Judd-Ofelt theory. The values of the radiative lifetime and the emission cross-section of 4F3/2 --> 4I11/2 fluorescence transition are comparable with those shown by glasses used in the solid-state laser applications.
