Abstract: 

Based on the gadolinium containing compound [Gd2Cl6(bipy)3]·2bipy,1,2 co‐doping with different amounts of europium and terbium proves successful and yields solid solutions of the formula [Gd2−x−yEuxTbyCl6(bipy)3]·2bipy, 0 ≤ x, y ≤ 0.5. The series of MOFs enables tuning of the emission colour in‐between green and red. Depending on the atomic ratio Gd:Eu:Tb the yellow region can also be covered. The luminescence is based on a strong antenna effect with energy transfers in the system covering a ligand to metal energy transfer (LMET) and an additional metal to metal energy transfer (MMET) between 4f‐levels of Tb3+ and Eu3+. It is remarkable that the QY does not change upon varying the ratio of Ln ions.
