Infos

This volume builds upon the successful book Lanthanide Luminescence published in the Springer Series on Fluorescence in 2011. Since its publication, the field of lanthanide spectroscopy and the areas in which the light emission properties of the f-elements are used have experienced substantial advances. The luminescence properties of lanthanide ions make them unique candidates for a myriad of optical applications. This book highlights and reviews the latest research in areas ranging from luminescence thermometry to imaging, sensing and photonic applications of these fascinating elements. Each chapter provides a comprehensive introduction to a specific area of application of lanthanide luminescence and extensively reviews seminal papers and current research literature. Given its interdisciplinary scope, the book appeals to scientists and advanced students in physics, chemistry and materials science interested in compounds and materials with optical properties.

Ana de Bettencourt-Dias received her licenciatura in Technological Chemistry from the University of Lisbon in 1993, and her Dr. rer. nat. in Inorganic Chemistry from the University of Cologne in 1997 under Prof. Thomas Kruck. In her graduate work, she isolated new titanium complexes as single-source precursors for the chemical vapor deposition of TiN thin films. In 1998 she joined Prof. Alan Balch's group at UC Davis as a Gulbenkian postdoctoral fellow, where she studied the electrochemistry and structure of fullerenes and endohedral fullerenes. In 2001 she joined the faculty at Syracuse University, working on luminescent lanthanide ion complexes. She moved to the University of Nevada, Reno, as an Associate Professor in 2007 and was promoted to Professor in 2013, and she has continued to research light-emitting compounds of the f-block of the periodic table. She served as the university's Associate Vice President for Research from 2015 to 2019. She was a member of the editorial advisory board of the journal Inorganic Chemistry from 2013 to 2015, and was 2018 chair-elect and 2019 chair of the Division of Inorganic Chemistry of the American Chemical Society. She has been a managing member of the editorial board of the Journal of Rare Earths since 2014. She is now the Susan Magee and Gary Clemons Professor of Chemistry and UNR Foundation Professor, as is a Fellow of the American Chemical Society.
