Abstract

Calcination of an ytterbium-O-phenylene hybrid copolymer under an argon atmosphere gave material composed of nanosized Yb₂O₃ particles and carbon clusters. ESR spectral examinations showed that material had a photo-responsive oxidationreduction function though an electron transfer from Yb₂O₃ particles to carbon clusters.
