The impact of prolonged irradiation of SPIONs/CdSe/ZnS nanocomposites by visible light on nanocomposite luminescence has been studied. It has been shown that prolonged irradiation of the nanocomposites with 405 nm laser can triple their photoluminescence quantum yield. It has been demonstrated that the efficiency of photoinduced processes on the nanocomposite surface correlates very well with the concentration of the nanocomposite surface ligand in our samples. We have also found that the quantum sized CdSe shell of SPIONs/CdSe/ZnS nanocomposites demonstrates the QD-like dependence of photoluminescence quantum yield on visible light dose and this nanocomposite property can be efficiently used to brighten their photoluminescence.
The molecular clusters, so called J-aggregates of pseudoisocyanine dye, were obtained in ordered cylindrical nanopores of anodic aluminum oxide. The absorption and luminescence of the samples were studied by the VIS-spectroscopy and laser confocal microscopy. The band of J-aggregates has the same shape, but is inhomogeneous broadened in comparison with solution. The luminescence maximum of J-aggregates was observed at 578 nm upon excitation at 543 nm as well as at 405 nm. Non-resonant luminescence excitation occurred due to energy transfer from oxygen vacancy of alumina to molecular nanoclusters. This is also confirmed by time-resolved luminescence spectroscopy, which shows the increase of luminescence decay time of J-aggregates placed in alumina up to the luminescence time of the clean alumina in comparison with J-aggregates coated on glass substrate.
Photoinduced changes in luminescent and photoelectrical properties of the hybrid structure based on CdSe/ZnS QDs and
multilayer graphene nanobelts were studied. It was shown that an irradiation of the structures by 365 nm mercury line in
doses up to 23 J led to growth of QD luminescent quantum yield and photocurrent in the QD/graphene structures. This
confirms the proximity of the rates of the QD luminescence decay and energy/charge transfer from QDs to graphene, and
opens an opportunity to photoinduced control of the photoelectric response of the graphene based hybrid structures with
semiconductor quantum dots.
