Metal-Enhanced Fluorescence of Chlorophylls in Light-Harvesting Complexes Coupled to Silver Nanowires
We investigate metal-enhanced fluorescence of peridinin-chlorophyll protein coupled to silver nanowires using optical microscopy combined with spectrally and time-resolved fluorescence techniques. In particular we study two different sample geometries: first, in which the light-harvesting complexes are deposited onto silver nanowires, and second, where solution of both nanostructures are mixed ...
متن کاملMetallic Nanoparticles Coupled with Photosynthetic Complexes
Plasmon excitations in metallic nanoparticles provide an efficient way to manipulate electromagnetic fields at the nanoscale (Maier, 2004). While the interactions between plasmons and simple nanostructures such as organic dyes or semiconductor nanocrystals is relatively well described and understood, application of metallic nanoparticles to multipigment structures has started just recently (Car...
متن کاملSilver(I) complexes as precursors to produce silver nanowires: structure characterization, antimicrobial activity and cell viability.
In this contribution a simple method has been employed to synthesis silver nanowires by thermal decomposition of silver complexes. Nanowires are the product of possible chemical reduction of metallic silver residue that remains after the thermal degradation process. Silver(I) complexes of quinolone antibacterial drugs sparfloxacin [Ag(SPHX)2·NO3]·3H2O (1) and enrofloxacin [Ag(ENRX)2·NO3]·2H2O (...
متن کاملInfluence of Plasmon Excitations in Au Nanoparticles upon Fluorescence and Photostability of Photosynthetic Complexes
Fluorescence spectroscopy is applied to study the influence of plasmon excitations in spherical Au nanoparticles on the optical properties of chlorophyll-containing light-harvesting complexes. The separation between the two nanostructures is controlled via silica layer with varied thickness. We observe strong increase of the emission intensity for a 12nm-thick spacer and the increase is accompa...
متن کاملRapid Synthesis of Silver Nanowires
The presence of either copper(I) or copper(II) chloride in the polyol reduction of silver nitrate facilitates the production of silver nanowires. Silver nanowires have applications in many areas, including electronics and catalysis. These wires are produced quickly (in approximately one hour), with the synthesis being easily performed in disposable glass vials, using only pipettes to deliver re...
