Abstract :
A model for the non radiative de-excitation of Er3+ ions in erbium(III)tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) based on the energy transfer process between the 4I13/2-4I15/2 transition of Er3+ and C-H stretching overtones is developed. The spectral overlap between near infrared emission and ligand´s C-H groups overtones absorption is evaluated. Experimental near infrared photoluminescence decay is obtained.
