TABLE 2.

Solid-state lifetimes of LnIII centers at multiple temperatures from the [Eu] complex series, averaged across variable excitation wavelengths (298 K: dark red, 150 K: light red, 77 K: dark blue, 20 K: light blue). Both EuIII and TbIII values are calculated average lifetimes from a bi-exponential fit.

Lifetime EuIII τavg (ms) TbIII τavg (ms)
Complex [Eu] (± 0.05 ms) [Eu]2DTPA (± 0.03 ms) [Eu2Tb] (± 0.02 ms) [Eu2Tb] (± 0.02 ms)
Temperature (K) 298 0.58 0.76 0.15 0.23
150 1.1 0.88 0.21 0.35
77 1.2 0.88 0.23 0.34
