In order to increase the species of organic infrared semiconductor, we synthesized organic infrared semiconductor
phthalocyanine gadolinium by using o-phthalodinitrile and GdCl3 as reactants, ammonium molybdate as catalyzer.
Under light and dark field modes of microscope, the translucency emerald-like powder of phthalocyanine gadolinium
has been observed, the size of the small grain for the sample is around 5μm in diameter, the size of larger grain may
reach to several tens of microns. The main vibrational peaks in FT-IR spectrum and Raman spectrum have been
assigned. Elementary analysis shows that the experimental data of phthalocyanine gadolinium in the main agree with
those of calculated data. The UV-Vis absorption spectrum of the sample indicates the sandwich-like structure of
phthalocyanine gadolinium. The organic infrared semiconductor phthalocyanine gadolinium thin film on quartz
substrate has been prepared with our synthesized powdered sample by using solution method. The characterizations of
XRD and UV-Vis-NIR absorption have been carried out for the phthalocyanine gadolinium thin film on quartz substrate,
XRD shows that phthalocyanine gadolinium diffractions occur at 2θ=6.851,8.290 and 8.820 degrees, the corresponding
plane spacings (d) for the diffraction peaks are 12.8921, 10.6570, and 10.0176Å.The diffraction peaks locate at low
diffraction angle, suggesting that the molecular size of the phthalocyanine gadolinium is big that causes the large
spacing of crystal planes. The UV-Vis-NIR absorption of phthalocyanine gadolinium thin film on quartz substrate
implies that within near infrared band there is a absorption in the 1.3~2.0μm wavelength range peaked at ca. 1.75μm,
indicating the important potential application value of phthalocyanine gadolinium in the field of organic infrared
optoelectronics.
