Abstract
A Novel coordination system with ff-emission of Tb(III) was obtained on a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film surface. On this film the ff-emission is polarized, and is intensified by polymer stretching. XAFS spectra show that the mean bond distances between Tb(III) and the nearest neighbour atoms of the 1,10,-phenanthroline ligand on the film are close to those in [Tb(SA)3], Tb(NO3)H2O and [Tb(phen)2(NO3)3].
