Abstract

We report a facile strategy to tether lanthanide complexes to organic–inorganic hybrid titania materials via sol–gel processing by employing chemically modified titanium alkoxide as the precursor where the organic ligand sensitizing the luminescence of lanthanide ions is bonded to titanium.
