چکیده

A photoluminescence (PL)-based oxygen and glucose sensor utilizing inorganic or organic light emitting diode as the light source, and polythiophene: fullerene type bulk-heterojunction devices as photodetectors, for both intensity and decay-time based monitoring of the sensing element's PL. The sensing element is based on the oxygen-sensitive dye Pt-octaethylporphyrin embedded in a polystyrene matrix.

Semiconducting Polymer Photodetectors with Electron and Hole Blocking Layers: High Detectivity in the Near-Infrared

Sensing from the ultraviolet-visible to the infrared is critical for a variety of industrial and scientific applications. Photodetectors with broad spectral response, from 300 nm to 1,100 nm, were fabricated using a narrow-band gap semiconducting polymer blended with a fullerene derivative. By using both an electron-blocking layer and a hole-blocking layer, the polymer photodetectors, operating...

Plasmonic hybrid nanotubes of fullerene C60-polythiophene-silver or gold nanoparticles: fabrication and enhancement of the Raman scattering.

We determined the surface-enhanced Raman scattering of the plasmonic hybrid nanotubes of fullerene C60-polythiophene-Ag or Au nanoparticles (NPs) which were synthesized via the template-based electrocopolymerization of terthiophene-linked fullerene C60 and terthiophene-modified Ag NPs or Au NPs using a nanoporous alumina membrane as the template. The combination of plasmonic activity and chemic...
