Lanthanide-based crystalline coatings have a great potential for energy-conversion devices, but until now luminescent surface-anchored materials were difficult to fabricate. Thin films, called lanthanides surface-mounted metal–organic frameworks (SURMOFs) with tetrasubstituted halide (fluorine, chlorine, and bromine) terephthalic acid derivative linkers as a basic platform for optical devices, exhibit a high quantum yield of fluorescence visible to the naked eyes under ambient light. We show that we can tune the luminescent properties in thin films by halide substitution, which affords control over the molecular structure of the material. We rationalize the mechanism for the modulation of the photophysical properties by “antenna effect”, which controls the energy transfer and quantum yields using experimental and theoretical techniques for chelated lanthanides as a function of the type of atom substitutions at the phenyl rings and the resulting dihedral angle between phenyl rings in the linkers and carboxylate groups.
