Photoluminescence Properties and Comparative Analysis of the New Compound of Zn(II) with Piridoxalaminoguanidine and Ru(II) Bipyridine Complex

Single crystals of a new compound of Zn(II) with pyridoxalaminoguanidine (PLAG), (PLAGH)(2)[ZnCl4] were obtained and transformed to the appropriate 5 mm diameter pellet. Another pellet of Ru(II) complex with bypiridine, i.e. tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(II), of 10 mm diameter has been synthesized. Photoluminescence spectra were measured for both materials. Lorentzian multipeak technique was used to determine peak wavelengths and their intensities. Photoluminescence spectroscopy upon 325 nm (3.81 eV) laser excitation light was used to obtain results. The novel compound of Zn(II), (PLAGH)(2)[ZnCl4] was compared to the commercially available OLED material - Ru(II) complex with bypiridine, under same circumstances and the identical experimental setup.
