Several spectroscopic approaches namely fluorescence, time‐resolved fluorescence, UV‐visible, and Fourier transform infra‐red (FT‐IR) spectroscopy were employed to examine the interaction between ethane‐1,2‐diyl bis(N,N‐dimethyl‐N‐hexadecylammoniumacetoxy)dichloride (16‐E2‐16) and bovine serum albumin (BSA). Fluorescence studies revealed that 16‐E2‐16 quenched the BSA fluorescence through a static quenching mechanism, which was further confirmed by UV–visible and time‐resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. In addition, the binding constant and the number of binding sites were also calculated. The thermodynamic parameters at different temperatures (298 K, 303 K, 308 K and 313 K) indicated that 16‐E2‐16 binding to BSA is entropy driven and that the major driving forces are electrostatic interactions. Decrease of the α‐helix from 53.90 to 46.20% with an increase in random structure from 22.56 to 30.61% were also observed by FT‐IR. Furthermore, the molecular docking results revealed that 16‐E2‐16 binds predominantly by electrostatic and hydrophobic forces to some residues in the BSA sub‐domains IIA and IIIA.

In this work, we synthesized water‐soluble L ‐cysteine‐capped alloyed CdSeTe core quantum dots (QDs) and investigated the structural and optical properties of deposition of each of CdS, CdS/ZnSe and CdS/ZnSe/ZnS shell layers. Photophysical results showed that the overcoating of a CdS shell around the alloyed CdSeTe core [quantum yield (QY) = 8.4%] resulted in effective confinement of the radiative exciton with an improved QY value of 93.5%. Subsequent deposition of a ZnSe shell around the CdSeTe/CdS surface decreased the QY value to 24.7%, but an increase in the QY value of up to 49.5% was observed when a ZnS shell was overcoated around the CdSeTe/CdS/ZnSe surface. QDs with shell layers showed improved stability relative to the core. Data obtained from time‐resolved fluorescence measurements provided useful insight into variations in the photophysical properties of the QDs upon the formation of each shell layer. Our study suggests that the formation of CdSeTe/CdS core/shell QDs meets the requirements of quality QDs in terms of high photoluminescence QY and stability, hence further deposition of additional shells are not necessary in improving the optical properties of the core/shell QDs.

Charge carrier dynamics in organolead iodide perovskites is analyzed by employing time‐resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy with several ps time resolution. The measurements performed by varying photoexcitation intensity over five orders of magnitude enable separation of photoluminescence components related to geminate and nongeminate charge carrier recombination and to address the dynamics of an isolated geminate electron–hole pair. Geminate recombination dominates at low excitation fluence and determines the initial photoluminescence decay. This decay component is remarkably independent of the material structure and experimental conditions. It is demonstrated that dependences of the geminate and nongeminate radiative recombination components on excitation intensity, repetition rate, and temperature, are hardly compatible with carrier trapping and exciton dissociation models. On the basis of semiclassical and quantum mechanical numerical calculation results, it is argued that the fast photoluminescence decay originates from gradual spatial separation of photogenerated weakly bound geminate charge pairs. 相似文献

A unique combined and multi‐disciplinary wavelength multiplexed spectrometer is described. It is furnished with high‐sensitivity imaging plate detectors, the power to which can be gated to provide time‐resolved data. The system is capable of collecting spectrally resolved luminescence data following X‐ray excitation [radioluminescence (RL) or X‐ray excited optical luminescence (XEOL)], electron irradiation [cathodoluminescence (CL)] and visible light from light emitting diodes (LEDs) [photoluminescence (PL)]. Time‐resolved PL and CL data can be collected to provide lifetime estimates with half‐lives from microsecond timeframes. There are temperature stages for the high and low temperature experiments providing temperature control from 20 to 673 K. Combining irradiation, time resolved (TR) and TR‐PL allows spectrally‐resolved thermoluminescence (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL). The design of two detectors with matched gratings gives optimum sensitivity for the system. Examples which show the advantages and multi‐use of the spectrometer are listed. Potential future experiments involving lifetime analysis as a function of irradiation, dose and temperature plus pump‐probe experiments are discussed. 相似文献

Eu‐doped ZnSe:/ZnS quantum dots (formed as ZnSe:Eu/ZnS QDs) were successfully synthesized by a two‐step wet chemical method: nucleation doping and epitaxial shell growing. The sensitization characteristics of Eu‐doped ZnSe and ZnSe/ZnS core/shell QD are studied in detail using photoluminescence (PL), PL excitation spectra (PLE) and time‐resolved PL spectroscopy. The emission intensity of Eu ions is enhanced and that of ZnSe QDs is decreased, implying that energy was transferred from the excited ZnSe host materials (the donor) to the doped Eu ions (the acceptor). PLE reveals that the ZnSe QDs act as an antenna for the sensitization of Eu ions through an energy transfer process. The dynamics of ZnSe:Eu/ZnS core/shell quantum dots with different shell thicknesses and doping concentrations are studied via PL spectra and fluorescence lifetime spectra. The maximum phosphorescence efficiency is obtained when the doping concentration of Eu is approximately 6% and the sample showed strong white light under ultraviolet lamp illumination. By surface modification with ZnS shell layer, the intensity of Eu‐related PL emission is increased approximately three times compared with that of pure ZnSe:Eu QDs. The emission intensity and wavelength of ZnSe:Eu/ZnS core/shell quantum dots can be modulated by different shell thickness and doping concentration. The results provide a valuable insight into the doping control for practical applications in laser, light‐emitting diodes and in the field of biotechnology.

In this article, the physics of FRET is demonstrated for an architecture of dye‐sensitized solar cells, in which the quantum dot “antennas” that serve as donors are incorporated into the solid titania electrode, providing isolation from electrolyte quenching, and potentially increased photostability. The energy transferred to the dye acceptor from the quantum dot donor, in addition to the direct light absorption by the dye, finally induce dye excitation and electron injection to the metal oxide semiconductor electrode. We use time‐resolved photoluminescence measurements to directly show achievement of FRET efficiencies of up to 70%, corresponding to over 80% internal quantum efficiency when considering radiative energy transfer as well. The various parameters governing the FRET efficiency and the requirements for high efficiency FRET‐based cells are discussed. Since both buried donors inside the electrode and donors solubilized in the electrolyte have both been shown to achieve high energy transfer efficiencies, and as the two methods take advantage of different available volumes of the electrode to introduce donors providing the excess absorption, synergy of the two methods is highly promising for achieving panchromatic absorption within a thin electrode. 相似文献

The photochemistry of two 2-acyloxycarbazoles, 2-acetyl- and 2-benzoyloxycarbazole, in different solvents has been studied. Irradiation of the 2-acyloxycarbazoles in organic media at 254 or 313 nm yields the [1,3]-migrated photoproducts, 1-acyl-2-hydroxycarbazole, 3-acyl-2-hydroxycarbazole and 2-hydroxycarbazole. The effects of the solvent, the atmosphere and the intensity of the light source on the photochemistry of 2-acyloxycarbazole have been studied. Laser flash photolysis as well as photosensitization experiments were performed in order to determine the photoreactive excited state. Electronic spectra (absorption, fluorescence and phosphorescence emission spectra) of the 2-acyloxycarbazoles have been recorded in homogeneous media at 298 K and in solid matrices at 77 K. The dynamic properties of the lowest singlet excited state in terms of fluorescence lifetime and fluorescence quantum yield have been measured in different organic solvents at room temperature. The photo-Fries rearrangement as a mild and clean one-pot reaction for the preparation of an advanced intermediate precursor in the total synthesis of carbazole alkaloids is described. 相似文献

The interaction of paclitaxel with human serum albumin (HSA) was studied using fluorescence, resonance light scattering, ultraviolet‐visible, circular dichroism and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy at pH 7.4. Fluorescence data revealed that the fluorescence quenching of HSA by paclitaxel was a static quenching procedure. Time‐resolved fluorescence data also confirmed the quenching mode, which present a constant decay time of about 5 ns. The binding sites were approximately 1 and the binding constant suggested a weak association (324/M at 298 K), which is helpful for the release of the drug to targeted organs. The thermodynamic parameters, ΔG○, ΔH° and ΔS° were calculated as – 1.06 × 104 J/mol, 361 J/mol per K and 9.7 × 104 J/mol respectively at 298 K, suggesting that binding was spontaneous and was driven mainly by hydrophobic interactions. The binding distance between HSA and paclitaxel was determined to be 2.23 nm based on the Förster theory. Analysis of circular dichroism, ultraviolet‐visible, three‐dimensional fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared and resonance light scattering spectra demonstrated that HSA conformation was slightly altered in the presence of paclitaxel and dimension of the individual HSA molecules were larger after interacting with paclitaxel. These results were confirmed by a molecular docking study. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescence, and leaf water parameters were measured in six Portuguese maize (Zea mays L.) cultivars during and following a period of drought stress. The leaf relative water content (RWC) responded differently
among cultivars but except for cultivar PB369, recovered close to initial values after watering was restored. Photosynthetic
rate and stomatal conductance decreased with drought but more slowly in cultivars PB269 and PB260 than in cultivars AD3R,
PB64, PB304 and PB369. Water use efficiency (WUE) decreased during the water stress treatment although with cultivar PB260
the decrease was marked only when the RWC fell below 40%. Recovery of WUE was seen with all cultivars except PB369. The maximum
quantum efficiency of photosystem II, the photochemical quenching coefficient, the electron transport rate in PSII and the
estimated functional plastoquinone pool tended to decrease with drought, while the non-photochemical quenching coefficient
increased. The parameters estimated from chlorophyll fluorescence did not recover in PB369, during re-watering. The results
show that PB260 and PB269 were the most tolerant and PB369 was the least tolerant cultivars to water stress. The variation
found among the cultivars tested suggests the existence of valuable genetic resources for crop improvement in relation to
drought tolerance. 相似文献

In this paper, a systematic investigation of the interaction of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with water‐soluble CdTe quantum dots (QDs) of two different sizes capped with carboxylic thiols is presented based on steady‐state and time‐resolved fluorescence measurements. Efficient Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) was observed to occur from BSA donor to CdTe acceptor as noted from reduction in the fluorescence of BSA and enhanced fluorescence from CdTe QDs. FRET parameters such as Förster distance, spectral overlap integral, FRET rate constant and efficiency were determined. The quenching of BSA fluorescence in aqueous solution observed in the presence of CdTe QDs infers that fluorescence resonance energy transfer is primarily responsible for the quenching phenomenon. Bimolecular quenching constant (kq) determined at different temperatures and the time‐resolved fluorescence data provide additional evidence for this. The binding stoichiometry and various thermodynamic parameters are evaluated by using the van ‘t Hoff equation. The analysis of the results suggests that the interaction between BSA and CdTe QDs is entropy driven and hydrophobic forces play a key role in the interaction. Binding of QDs significantly shortened the fluorescence lifetime of BSA which is one of the hallmarks of FRET. The effect of size of the QDs on the FRET parameters are discussed in the light of FRET parameters obtained. 相似文献

The interaction between human serum albumin (HSA) and aurantio‐obtusin was investigated by spectroscopic techniques combined with molecular docking. The Stern–Volmer quenching constants (KSV) decreased from 8.56 × 105 M?1 to 5.13 × 105 M?1 with a rise in temperatures from 289 to 310 K, indicating that aurantio‐obtusin produced a static quenching of the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA. Time‐resolved fluorescence studies proved again that the static quenching mechanism was involved in the interaction. The sign and magnitude of the enthalpy change as well as the entropy change suggested involvement of hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interaction in aurantio‐obtusin–HSA complex formation. Aurantio‐obtusin binding to HSA produced significant alterations in secondary structures of HSA, as revealed from the time‐resolved fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) spectroscopy, three‐dimensional (3D) fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) spectral results. Molecular docking study and site marker competitive experiment confirmed aurantio‐obtusin bound to HSA at site I (subdomain IIA). 相似文献

Mixed cation perovskites currently achieve very promising efficiency and operational stability when used as the active semiconductor in thin‐film photovoltaic devices. However, an in‐depth understanding of the structural and photophysical properties that drive this enhanced performance is still lacking. Here the prototypical mixed‐cation mixed‐halide perovskite (FAPbI3)0.85(MAPbBr3)0.15 is explored, and temperature‐dependent X‐ray diffraction measurements that are correlated with steady state and time‐resolved photoluminescence data are presented. The measurements indicate that this material adopts a pseudocubic perovskite α phase at room temperature, with a transition to a pseudotetragonal β phase occurring at ≈260 K. It is found that the temperature dependence of the radiative recombination rates correlates with temperature‐dependent changes in the structural configuration, and observed phase transitions also mark changes in the gradient of the optical bandgap. The work illustrates that temperature‐dependent changes in the perovskite crystal structure alter the charge carrier recombination processes and photoluminescence properties within such hybrid organic–inorganic materials. The findings have significant implications for photovoltaic performance at different operating temperatures, as well as providing new insight on the effect of alloying cations and halides on the phase behavior of hybrid perovskite materials. 相似文献

Novel luminescent dense nano‐silica hybrid materials (DNSS) modified with different amounts of (3‐aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) and 1,8‐naphthalic anhydride (NA) were successfully synthesized via two steps combined with post‐grafting methods. Powder X‐ray diffraction (XRD), N2‐sorption analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy and elemental analysis, as well as time‐resolved decays were employed to characterize the resultant hybrid materials. The results revealed that luminescent organic molecules had been successfully loaded onto the amine‐modified surface of nano‐silica spheres. In addition, their fluorescence intensity and characteristic peak of emission spectra changed with increasing amount of APTES and NA additive. In particular, the characteristic peak showed a red shift from 390 to 450 nm, however, this was inconsistent with results calculated on the basis of the elemental analysis data, most probably because of the dispersion behaviors of NA molecules from the aggregating to the monolayer state. These observations demonstrated the existence of a quantum confinement effectiveness of NA–DNSS samples, and therefore a possible mechanism was put forward.

Phospholipid quantum dot micelles are useful for bio‐applications because of their amphiphilicity and exceptional biocompatibilities. We investigated the uptake of phospholipid [polyethylene glycol (PEG), biotin, and folic acid terminated] modified CdSe/ZnS quantum dot micelles by cancer cells and its photostability under ultrviolet light in the C spectrum (UV‐C) (254 nm) or UV‐A (365 nm) light irradiation. The stability of micelles to the exposure of UV‐C and UV‐A light was assessed. Biotin‐modified quantum dot micelles give photoluminescence enhancement under UV‐C light irradiation. Folate modified micelle under UV‐C and UV‐A results show considerable photoluminescence enhancement. Photoluminescence lifetime measurements showed 7.04, 8.11 and 11.42 ns for PEG, folate, and biotin terminated phospholipid micelles, respectively. Folate and biotin‐modified quantum dot micelles showed excellent uptake by HeLa cells under fluorescence confocal microscopy. Phospholipid CdSe/ZnS quantum dot micelles can be potentially used for diagnosis and treatment of cancer in the future. 相似文献

Photosystem I of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus contains two spectral pools of chlorophylls called C-708 and C-719 that absorb at longer wavelengths than the primary electron donor P700. We investigated the relative quantum yields of photochemical charge separation and fluorescence as a function of excitation wavelength and temperature in trimeric and monomeric photosystem I complexes of this cyanobacterium. The monomeric complexes are characterized by a reduced content of the C-719 spectral form. At room temperature, an analysis of the wavelength dependence of P700 oxidation indicated that all absorbed light, even of wavelengths of up to 750 nm, has the same probability of resulting in a stable P700 photooxidation. Upon cooling from 295 K to 5 K, the nonselectively excited steady-state emission increased by 11- and 16-fold in the trimeric and monomeric complexes, respectively, whereas the quantum yield of P700 oxidation decreased 2.2- and 1.7-fold. Fluorescence excitation spectra at 5 K indicate that the fluorescence quantum yield further increases upon scanning of the excitation wavelength from 690 nm to 710 nm, whereas the quantum yield of P700 oxidation decreases significantly upon excitation at wavelengths longer than 700 nm. Based on these findings, we conclude that at 5 K the excited state is not equilibrated over the antenna before charge separation occurs, and that approximately 50% of the excitations reach P700 before they become irreversibly trapped on one of the long-wavelength antenna pigments. Possible spatial organizations of the long-wavelength antenna pigments in the three-dimensional structure of photosystem I are discussed. 相似文献

Absorption and fluorescence spectra of the C-phycocyanin beta-subunit were quantitatively deconvoluted into component spectra of the beta-84 and beta-155 chromophores. The deconvolution procedure was based on a theoretical treatment of polarization properties. Four kinds of spectra (absorption, emission, emission polarization, and excitation polarization) measured on C-phycocyanin isolated from the cyanobacterium Mastigocladus laminosus were used as the experimental data set. Without any assumption of spectral shape, the absorption and fluorescence spectra of both chromophores were unambiguously resolved and their fluorescence quantum yields were evaluated. By combining the spectra of the alpha-subunit, independently measured, with the resolved spectra of the beta-subunit, the fluorescence and fluorescence polarization spectra and the fluorescence quantum yield of the monomer were estimated; they agree with experimental values to within an acceptable error. Further, the matrix of energy transfer rates in the monomer was estimated; it gave a significantly different result (by up to 40%) from previously estimated ones. 相似文献

We have designed a simple, one‐step synthesis of CdSe quantum dots with photoluminescence frequencies ranging from the red through to the violet region of the solar spectrum. The photoluminescence peaks have FWHM of 30 nm indicating absorption over a narrow range of wavelengths. The effect of solvent type and solvent boiling point on the physical and photoluminescence properties of the quantum dots has been studied. High boiling point, non‐polar solvents shift the photoluminescence peak to longer wavelengths and low boiling point, polar solvents shift the photoluminescence peak to shorter wavelengths.

The change in photophysical properties of the organic molecule due to solvatochromic effect caused by different solvent environments at room temperature gives information about the dipole moments of 3‐N‐(N′‐methylacetamidino)benzanthrone (3‐MAB). The quantum yield, fluorescence lifetime of 3‐MAB was measured in different solvents to calculate radiative and non‐radiative rate constants. The results revealed that the excited state dipole moment (μe) is relatively larger compared to the ground state dipole moment (μg), indicating the excited state of the dye under study is more polar than the ground state and the same trend is noticed with theoretical calculations performed using the CAM‐B3LYP/6‐311+G(d,p) method. Further, the study on preferential solvation was carried out for 3‐MAB dye in ethyl acetate–methanol solvent mixture. The fluorescence quenching method has been employed for the detection of dopamine using 3‐MAB as fluorescent probe, using steady‐state and time resolved methods at room temperature. The method enables dopamine in the micro molar range to be detected. Also, an attempt to verify the quenching process by employing different models has been tried. Various rate parameters are measured using these models, our results indicates the quenching process is diffusion limited. 相似文献

The interactions of N‐acetyl‐L‐cysteine‐capped CdTe quantum dots (QDs) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and bovine hemoglobin (BHb) were investigated by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), fluorescence, synchronous fluorescence, fluorescence lifetime, ultraviolet–visible absorption, and circular dichroism techniques. Fluorescence data of BSA–QDs and BHb–QDs revealed that the quenching was static in every system. While CdTe QDs changed the microenvironment of tryptophan in BHb, the microenvironment of BSA kept unchanged. Adding CdTe QDs affected the skeleton and secondary structure of the protein (BSA and BHb). The ITC results indicated that the interaction between the protein (BSA and BHb) and QDs‐612 was spontaneous and the predominant force was hydrophobic interaction. In addition, the binding constants were determined to be 1.19 × 105 L mol?1 (BSA–QDs) and 2.19 × 105 L mol?1 (BHb–QDs) at 298 K. From these results, we conclude that CdTe QDs have a larger impact on the structure of BHb than BSA. 相似文献
