Optical material composed of a di-urethanesil host hybrid and a europium complex

Preliminary results regarding the structure, thermal behaviour and photoluminescence features of a hybrid compound composed of a di-urethane cross-linked poly(oxyethylene)/siloxane (di-urethanesil) host framework and a guest europium complex incorporating 2-thenoyltriflluoracetonate (tta−) and 1,10-phenantroline (phen) ligands are reported.
