Two new luminescent hybrid materials were synthesized using para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), europium nitrate, and titania. Characterization of the synthesized hybrid materials using infrared spectroscopy and CHN elemental analysis revealed the bonding sites and compositions of the two hybrid materials. The homogenous nature of the hybrid materials was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. The optical properties of these synthesized materials were studied using UV-visible absorption spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Thermogravimetric analysis revealed that the hybrid materials are thermally stable.
