Abstract

A heteroatom-rich Cd (II)-framework which can protect and sensitize the encapsulated Ln3+ emitters in their hydrate form in both air and aqueous media was reported. Furthermore, the dual-and bimodal-emissions are successfully realized by intercalation of the different Ln3+- hydrates based on a guest-driven approach.
