Oxygen Sensing by the Hybrid Langmuir-Blodgett Films of Iridium(III) Complexes and Synthetic Saponite on the Basis of Energy Transfer

چکیده
An ultra-thin hybrid film of amphiphilic iridium(III) complexes and synthetic saponite was manipulated by means of the modified Langmuir-Blodgett method. In the film deposited onto a quartz substrate, the external mixed molecular layer of amphiphilic iridium(III) complexes was reinforced by the inner layer of exfoliated synthetic saponite. As components of the molecular layer, two iridium(III) complexes were used: [Ir(dfppy)2(dc9bpy)] (dfppyH = 2-(4′,6′-difluorophenyl) pyridine; dc9bpy = 4,4′-dinonyl-2,2′-bipyridine) (denoted as DFPPY) and [Ir(piq)2(dc9bpy)] (piqH = 1-phenyisoquinoline)) denoted as PIQ). The emission spectra from the films changed from blue to red maxima with the decrease of a ratio of DFPPY/PIQ due to the energy transfer from excited DFPPY to PIQ. The intensity of red decreased with the increase of oxygen pressure through the quenching of excited iridium(III) complexes, promising a possibility as an oxygen-sensing film.

Study of the Resonance Energy Transfer Between Two Dye Cations Embedded in Layered Silicates
The Langmuir – Blodgett (LB) method is one of the useful techniques to prepare ultra-thin films with precise organization of embedded dye cations. The main limitations for the preparation of LB films is that the surfactants, building blocks of the LB films, must be amphiphiles and not soluble in water. In our study we used laser dye cation (rhodamine) with long alkyl chain in the structure, whi...

Energy transfer was investigated between two types of iridium(III) complexes, [Ir(dfppy)2(Cn-bpy)](+) (dfppyH = 2-(2',4'-difluorophenyl)pyridine; Cn-bpy = 4,4'-dialkyl-2,2'-bipyridine; dialkyl = dimethyl (C1), didodecyl (C12), and dinonyldecyl (C19)) and [Ir(piq)2(Cn-bpy)](+) (piqH = 1-phenylisoquinoline) as a donor and an acceptor, respectively. The complexes were co-adsorbed by colloidally di...

The incorporation of chiral amphiphilic lanthanide-directed self-assembled Nd(III) complexes (Nd.13 and Nd.23) into stable Langmuir monolayers, and the subsequent Langmuir-Blodgett film formation of these, is described. The photophysical properties of the enantiomeric pair of ligands 1 and 2 in the presence of Nd(CF3SO3)3 were also investigated in CH3CN solutions using UV-vis, fluorescence, and...

The use of Ir(III) complexes in photo-responsive molecular devices for oxygen gas sensing is reviewed. Attention is focused on the immobilization of Ir(III) complexes in organic or inorganic host materials such as polymers, silica and clays in order to enhance robustness and reliability. Our recent works on constructing nanometer-thick films comprised of cyclometalated cationic Ir(III) complexe...
