摘要: This work discusses the recombination mechanisms and chemical nature of emitting centers subjacent to white-light emission sol−gel derived amine-functionalized hybrids lacking metal activator ions, such as those based on 3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES), 3-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTES), urea urethane precursors. The photoluminescence (PL) results from a convolution originated in NH (NH2) groups or bridges (APTES- GPTES-based hybrids) with electron−hole recombinations occurring siloxane nanoclusters. These two components reveal radiative mechanism typical donor−acceptor pairs, mediated by some localized centers. Photoinduced proton-transfer between defects NH3+ NH- (GPTES- APTES-based NH2+ N- (di-ureasils di-urethanesils) is proposed responsible for NH-related component. Electron paramagnetic resonance data suggest that sp...
