Abstract

Calixarene molecules are originally known as inclusion compounds in host-guest chemistry, which can bind various metal ions and organic molecules. We investigated the binding property of calixarene polymer against trivalent europium (Eu³⁺) complex which possesses excellent luminescent characteristics. An interaction, i.e. coordination structure, is established between calixarene polymer and Eu³⁺ complex, which results in an effective suppression of concentration quenching of Eu³⁺ complex and enhancement of luminescent intensity in high concentration.
