Improving the stability of perovskite quantum dots and adjusting their optical properties are essential for their application in advanced optoelectronic equipment. We provide a simple synthetic method to hybridize perovskite quantum dots and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) into a polymer matrix. The hybrid material is made by encapsulating perovskite CH3NH3PbBr3 quantum dots in lanthanide-based metal-organic frameworks. A series of lanthanide-based metal-organic frameworks (LnMOFs), namely, [Ln(tpob)(DMF)(H2O)]n (Lntpob, Ln = Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, H3tpob = 1,3,5-tris(4-carbonylphenyloxy)benzene), have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions and fully characterized. Lntpobs display a three-dimensional (3D) pcu network with central-symmetric [Eu2(COO)4] structural building units (SBUs) linked by one-dimensional (1D) chains. CH3NH3PbBr3@Eutpob hybrids were developed through a three-step process, in which the precursor PbBr2@Eutpob was formed by immersing the Eutpob crystal synthesized in the first step into a PbBr2 solution; then the composite materials could form quickly when CH3NH3Br was added to the precursor. Therefore, the hybrid composite material exhibits luminescent properties related to the excitation wavelength in the form of powders or thin films. In addition, the photoluminescence of the CH3NH3PbBr3@Eutpob composite can be improved and maintained for a long time after it is introduced into the poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) matrix. Moreover, the emission peak based on the perovskite quantum dots can still maintain about 85% of the original intensity after being left for 30 days. Also, the obtained PMMA films can achieve tunable emission from red to green.

Due to the high carcinogenicity and bioaccumulation effects of dichromate ions in the human body, sensitive and rapid detection of Cr2O72- ions is necessary. Herein, two lanthanide coordination polymers based on a linear dicarboxylic acid ligand, named {Ln(cpon)(Hcpon)(H2O)3}n [Ln = Tb, Tbcpon; Eu, Eucpon; H2 cpon = 5-(4-carboxy-phenoxy)-nicotinic acid], have been successfully synthesized. These two isostructural compounds contain one-dimensional zigzag chains that consist of uncoordinated carboxyl groups and pyridine groups in the framework, and the one-dimensional chains can further form a three-dimensional supramolecular stacking structure by intermolecular interaction. Both Tbcpon and Eucpon show good luminescence performance and high stability. Tbcpon exhibits a good ability to sense Cr2O72- ions in aqueous solution. Moreover, the composite film material composed of Tbcpon and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) exhibits superior luminescence properties compared to those of pure Tbcpon. The Tbcpon-PMMA film exhibits an excellent ability to recognize Cr2O72- ions with high selectivity and a low detection limit of 5.6 ppb, which is much lower than the maximum contamination standard of 100 ppb in drinking water specified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Furthermore, the Tbcpon-PMMA film shows good recyclability for more than five cycles and anti-interference ability. After the introduction of the slightly soluble polymer poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), the Tbcpon-PVA composite film can effectively detect Cr2O72- ions in as little as 1 min. These composite films could be potentially used as test strips for trace detection and rapid detection of Cr2O72- ions in aqueous solution.
