摘要
We have investigated the photoluminescence (PL) and the magnetic properties of CdPS3 intercalated with Ce and Eu ions. Two kinds of the intercalated phases are obtained. In the first phases (PCe and PEu), the hydrated rare earth ions exist in the van der Waals gap. The second phases (DCe and DEu) are obtained by the dehydration of PCe and PEu. Rare earth ions are inserted into the lamellar layers in them. All phases are paramagnetic. While the magnetic properties of PCe, PEu and DCe are explained by Ce3+ and Eu3+ ions, respectively, those of DEu suggest the coexistence of Eu2+ and Eu3+ ions. In the PL spectra at 4.2 K, while 4f → 5d transition of Ce3+ ions is observed in DCe, 4f → 4f transition of Eu3+ ions and 4f → 5d transition of Eu2+ ions are observed in DEu. These are consistent with the magnetic properties.
