Abstract
A europium (III) chelating polymer has been synthesized. Based on Judd-Ofelt theory, the intensity parameters Ω2 and Ω4 have been calculated from the emission spectrum of the chelating polymer. The Ω2 and Ω4 parameters have been used to calculate the total radiative transition rate (535.19 s-1) and radiative lifetime (1.868 ms) of the 5D0 exciting state. The stimulated emission cross-sections σ and the fluorescence branch ratios β for the 5D0→7FJ transitions have been evaluated also. Analysis reveals that the europium (III) chelating polymer is promising for use in optical devices.
