Abstract :
In this paper, optical properties of novel 1.54 mum emitting organic compounds are presented. Erbium tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) and erbium dibromo-quinoline thin films have been solution processed and are compared by absorbance and infrared emission. Edges and flaws related to the processing of the two compounds are remarked.
