چکیده

In this letter, we report the first observation of metal-enhanced exciplex fluorescence, observed from anthracene in the presence of diethylaniline. Anthracene in the presence of diethylaniline in close proximity to Silver Island Films (SIFs) shows enhanced monomer and exciplex emission as compared to a non-silvered control sample containing no silver nanoparticles. Our findings suggest two complementary methods for the enhancement: (i) surface plasmons can radiate coupled monomer and exciplex fluorescence efficiently, and (ii) enhanced absorption (enhanced electric near-field) further facilitates enhanced emission. Our exciplex studies help us to further understand the complex photophysics of the metal-enhanced fluorescence technology.

Effects of Preferential Solvation Revealed by Time-Resolved Magnetic Field Effects

External magnetic fields can impact recombination yields of photoinduced electron transfer reactions by affecting the spin dynamics in transient, spin-correlated radical pair intermediates. For exciplex-forming donor-acceptor systems, this magnetic field effect (MFE) can be investigated sensitively by studying the delayed recombination fluorescence. Here, we investigate the effect of preferenti...

Target-assembled exciplexes based on Scorpion oligonucleotides.

Scorpion probes, specific DNA probe sequences maintained in a hairpin-loop, can be modified to carry the components of an exciplex for use as a novel fluorescence-based method for specific detection of DNA. The exciplex partners (5'-pyrenyl and 3'-naphthalenyl) were attached to oligonucleotides via phosphoramidate links to terminal phosphate groups. Hybridization of the probe to a complementary...

Monitoring i-motif transitions through the exciplex emission of a fluorescent probe incorporating two (Py)A units.

Pairs of pyrene-modified deoxyadenosine ((Py)A) units induce a stable interstrand i-motif structure, which can be characterized by a change in the fluorescence λ(max), with an exciplex emission that is not observable in its single-strand structure.

Temperature-Dependent Photoluminescence Properties of Tl[Ag(CN)2]: Formation of Luminescent Metal-Metal-Bonded Inorganic Exciplexes in the Solid State

The photoluminescence behavior of single crystals of Tl[Ag(CN)2] has been studied as a function of temperature. The 10 K spectra show a broad emission centered at about 420 nm and two excitation maxima at 301 and 314 nm. Exciting with each of these maxima gives a different temperature dependence for the corresponding emission spectra. This result correlates with the crystal structure of the com...
