Abstract

Luminescent oxide gels were prepared by hydrolysis of silicon alkoxides in solutions containing the luminescent hexanuclear molybdenum cluster Mo6Cl12. The resulting gel exhibited emission and lifetime behavior characteristic of Mo6Cl12 thereby indicating that the excited-state properties of the metal cluster species are not significantly perturbed by the gel environment.
