The adsorption of ammonia and other simple molecules on an activated Eu(III) ion exchanged mordenite (Eu-M) has been studied by the measurement of the luminescence of the Eu/sup 2 +/ ion, which was produced by dehydration at 500/sup 0/C. The emission peak of the Eu/sup 2 +/ ion shifted to a shorter wavelength on exposure to ammonia and other simple molecules. The magnitude of the shift was correlated to the specific dielectric constant of the adsorbate. The quantum yield for the Eu/sup 2 +/ emission bands decreased after the adsorption of NH/sub 3/ and CH/sub 3/CN. Also, the lifetime in the Eu/sup 2 +/-adsorbate system was shorter than that in an activated Eu-M sample. The rate constant for the radiationless transitions was more sensitive to the nature of the adsorbate, and the order of the quenching power was CH/sub 3/CN > NH/sub 3/ > (CH/sub 2/NH/sub 2/)/sub 2/. 30 references, 6 figures, 4 tables.
