NEW TRENDS IN THE DESIGN OF LUMINESCENT METAL COMPLEXES* |
|
| Authors: | Vincenzo Balzani Roberto Ballardini |
| Abstract: | The requirements needed for an ideal luminophore are discussed with reference to the luminescent properties of organic molecules and metal complexes. Recent strategies for the design of luminescent metal complexes are discussed, with particular emphasis on cage-type complexes and oligonuclear homo- and hetero-metallic complexes. |
