This mini review gives some highlights of the work recently carried out in our research group in Dublin on the developments of lanthanide luminescent devices, where the future goal is to produce devices that can operate as sensors. A few examples demonstrate our design principles for targeting both anion and cations that are of biological or pharmaceutical relevance, where the recognition occurs in aqueous competitive media. We also discuss the possibility of developing mixed f-d metal complexes and conjugates that can be employed as novel supramolecular architectures.read more

Transition-metal sensitised near-infrared luminescence from lanthanides in d–f heteronuclear arrays ☆
TL;DR: In this article, a review summarises recent work from several groups on the preparation and photophysical properties of d-f heteronuclear assemblies in which a strongly light absorbing d-block chromophore is used as an antenna group to generate sensitised luminescence from near-infrared emitting lanthanide(III) centers (especially Yb, Nd, Er) following d-→-f photoinduced energy transfer.

A Theory of Sensitized Luminescence in Solids
TL;DR: In this article, the resonance theory of Forster, which involves only allowed transitions, is extended to include transfer by means of forbidden transitions which, it is concluded, are responsible for the transfer in all inorganic systems yet investigated.
