Abstract

Generally, metal-centered ff states dominate the discussion of the excited state properties of lanthanide complexes. In particular, the luminescence properties of Eu(III) and Tb(III) compounds have been studied in great detail for many decades. However, other types of excited states such as MC fd, MLCT, LMCT, MMCT and IL are also of interest. In this context, we have recently examined the excited state behavior of selected Ce(III), Ce(IV), Eu(II) and Gd(III) complexes which are luminescent and/or photoreactive.
