Analysis of the Effects of Protic,Aprotic, and Multi-Component Solvents on the Fluorescence Emission of Naphthalene and its Exciplex with Triethylamine

The emission spectra of naphthalene (NP)–triethylamine (TEA) systems were measured under steady-state illumination conditions in some protic and aprotic solvent-tetrahydrofuran (THF) mixtures. The fluorescence spectrum of the NP–TEA system in THF could be separated into two component bands (band A at 329 nm (fluorescence of NP) and band B at 468 nm (emission from an intermolecular exciplex)). The intensities of bands A and B decreased with increasing solvent polarity. The intensity of band B also decreased owing to the hydrogen-bonding interaction between TEA and protic solvents, but in this case the intensity of band A increased. The decrease in the intensity of band A with increasing solvent polarity is considered to be caused by the enhanced formation of an ion-pair parallel to the formation of an exciplex with increasing solvent polarity. The decrease in the intensity of band B is considered to be caused by the enhanced formation of ion-pair both parallel to and through the formation of the exciplex. The increase in the intensity of band A and the decrease in that of band B upon the addition of protic solvents is caused by the decrease in the concentration of free TEA. Acetonitrile only has a polar effect and trichloroacetic acid only has a hydrogen-bonding (protonation) effect, while alcohols have both the effects.     

Magnetic field effect on indole exciplexes: an anomalous dielectric dependence

Individual exciplex formation between various aromatic hydrocarbons, anthracene, pyrene, all-s-trans-1,4-diphenylbuta-1,3-diene and a heteroaromatic amine, 1,2-dimethylindole, was investigated by steady-state fluorescence and magnetic field effect (MFE). A comparative study was carried out with two other exciplex systems 9-cyanophenanthrene-1,2-dimethylindole and 9-cyanophenanthrene-N-methylindole. The extent of charge transfer and dielectric dependence of MFE reveals the potential role of specific interactions related to exciplex geometry.

A Low-Field Magnetically Affected Reaction Yield (MARY) Spectrometer with Spectral Fluorescence Resolution

A novel spectrometer for low-field studies in magnetically affected reaction yield (MARY) spectroscopy with fluorescence detection is described. The spectrometer is based on a yoke-free magnetic system containing no ferromagnetic elements, uses X-ray or optical excitation, and includes a monochromator to analyze the spectral composition of luminescence. Using the new setup, the effect of transversal residual magnetic field on zero field MARY line is illustrated, formation of exciplexes under X-irradiation in a naphthalene/N,N-dimethylaniline solution in alkane is demonstrated, a magnetic field effect on the emission spectrum is shown in field-cycling mode, and modulated MARY spectra in the exciplex and the intrinsic luminophor bands are compared to show that magnetic field sensitivity here is provided at the stage of the recombining radical ion pair, while exciplex formation only transforms the luminescence properties.     

Stoichiometrically Different Inclusion Complexes of 2-Aminofluorene and 2-Amino-9-Hydroxyfluorene in β-Cyclodextrin: A Spectrofluorimetric Study

β-cyclodextrin (β-CDx) forms inclusion complexes with 2-aminofluorene (2AF) and 2-amino-9-hydroxyfluorene (2AHF) in different stoichiometries (Guest-host ratio 1:1 and 1:2 respectively) which is discussed on the basis of study by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The ground and the excited state acidity constants for the neutral‒monocation equilibrium of the two fluorophores in aqueous β-CDx medium are determined by spectrophotometric and fluorimetric titration methods respectively. The dual fluorescence observed for 2AHF monocation in aqueous solution is due to the formation of monocation-water exciplex. This monocation-water exciplex formation is hindered in β-CDx solution by the inclusion complexation. Based on the results obtained, the structures of the inclusion complexes are proposed.     

Fluorescence quenching of phenanthrene and chrysene by potassium iodide in methanol-ethanol solutions

The fluorescence decay functions and the fluorescence quantum yields of phenanthrene-h₁₀, -d₁₀, chrysene-h₁₂ and -d₁₂ in the presence of Kl in methanol-ethanol solutions were measured at 77 K and 293 K. The fluorescence decay functions measured at 77 K were analyzed taking into account the distance dependence of the intersystem crossing and radiative fluorescence rate constants. The kinetic effects and spectral evidence suggest that for the external heavy-atom effect in the system investigated here both the electron transfer processes and the exciplex formation between the aromatic molecule and perturber are important.     

Exciplex emission and photoinduced energy transfer as a function of cavity dimension in naphthalene-linked aza-crown ethers

We report here the photophysical properties of two derivatives of N-(β-methylnaphthalene) aza-crown systems having different cavity dimensions. The aza-crown moiety is attached to β-position of naphthalene moiety by one >CH₂ unit in both the derivatives. The cavity size is found to have a pronounced effect on exciplex formation as well as energy transfer in the systems at room temperature and low temperature, respectively. Both the systems exhibit photoinduced electron transfer (PET) which is evident from their weaker fluorescence emission and their quenched singlet lifetimes as compared to that of free naphthalene. The systems also show a solvent sensitive red shifted broad structureless emission which is assigned to exciplex formation. The ratio of quantum yields of exciplex to monomer emission (?_Exp/?_M) is lower in the smaller aza-crown (L1) as compared to that in the larger aza-crown (L2) implying a different geometry of the two systems in the excited state. Semi-emperical calculations performed on the systems also corroborate the different geometry of the two systems. Complexation of alkali metals, rare earth ions and protons by the aza-crown moiety results in enhancement of fluorescence emission due to blocking of PET. In the presence of protons, L1 exhibits a new emission due to excimer formation which has not been observed in L2 under similar conditions. The rare earth ion complexes of L1 and L2 at low temperature exhibit energy transfer from the lowest triplet state of naphthalene to the rare earth ion states, the extent of energy transfer being greater in the larger aza-crown (L2) as compared to that in smaller aza-crown system (L1).     

Fluorescence study of inter- and intramolecular interactions in poly(p-N,N-dimenthylaminostyrene-co-9-vinylantracene)

A new exciplex-forming polymer, poly(p-N, N-dimethylaminostyrene-co-9-vinylanthracene) (PDMA-AN, DP ≈ 25) was prepared by copolymerization of p-N, N-dimethylaminostyrene and 9-vinylanthracene. Exciplex formation was observed both in the fluid media and a polymer film. The fluorescence spectrum of PDMA-AN is characterized by the appearance of a high-energy exciplex formed by the neighboring pendant 9-anthryl (AN) and p-N, N-dimethylanilino (DMA) groups, which is shifted by approximately 85 nm to shorter wavelengths in comparison with the emission band of the intermolecular exciplex formed by the monomer model anthracene-p-N, N-dimethylaminotoluene (DMAT). The polymer conformation appropriate for the formation of this state exists prior to the initial excitation and is partially eclipsed. The effects of concentration and polarity of the solvent on the flourescence emission are discussed. A red shift of the maximum wavelength of the flourescence band as a function of concentration was found in a nonpolar solvent (toluene). However, in a relatively polar solvent (1,2-dichloroethane), a shoulder peak at a longer wavelength gains in intensity with increasing concentration. These phenomena are attributed to the increase of the contribution of the normal intermolecular exciplex state in which the interacting AN-DMA groups achieve an eclipsed and sandwiched conformation.     

TADF激基复合物主体材料提升溶液法制备蓝色荧光有机发光二极管的效率

为了提升溶液法制备的蓝色荧光有机发光二极管(OLEDs)的效率,采用了基于热激活延迟发光(TADF)的激基复合物作为主体材料。TADF激基复合物主体可以利用反向系间窜跃上转换形成单线态激子并将能量传递到客体,从而可以同时利用发光层中的三线态激子和单线态激子,以提升蓝色荧光器件的效率。选择蓝色荧光材料1-4-Di-[4-(N,N-diphenyl)amino]styryl-benzene(DSA-ph)作为客体发光材料,4,4′,4″-T-ris(carbazol-9-yl)triphenylamine(TCTA)掺杂1,3,5-Tri(1-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)phenyl)(TPBi)作为热激活延迟荧光激基复合物主体,通过溶液法制备了蓝色荧光OLEDs。通过测试TCTA,TPBi以及TCTA掺杂TPBi的光致发光光谱发现,与TCTA和TPBi相比,TCTA掺杂TPBi的光致发光谱(PL)发生了明显的红移(峰值波长变为437 nm),而且光谱变宽,证明了TCTA∶TPBi激基复合物的形成。通过对于DSA-ph掺杂激基复合物主体的薄膜与DSA-ph掺杂poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA)的薄膜进行PL测试发现,两者发光峰相同,都是来自DSA-ph的发光,说明激基复合物主体将能量传递到了DSA-ph;DSA-ph的吸收光谱与激基复合物主体的PL光谱存在很大重叠,说明激基复合物主体与DSA-ph的能量传递非常有效;通过对激基复合物主体掺杂不同浓度客体的薄膜进行瞬态PL衰减测试发现,与纯DSA-ph的寿命相比,DSA-ph掺杂激基复合物主体之后其寿命会延长,纯DSA-ph的寿命只有1.19 ns,DSA-ph掺杂激基复合物主体的荧光衰减曲线与激基复合物主体的荧光衰减曲线相似,这进一步证明了激基复合物主体将能量传递到了DSA-ph。研究了主体引入以及DSA-ph掺杂浓度对器件性能的影响。对于器件的亮度、电流密度、电压、电流效率、电致发光光谱等参数进行了测试,与不采用激基复合物主体的器件相比,采用激基复合物主体的器件性能明显改善,在DSA-ph掺杂浓度为10%时,器件亮度从2133.6 cd·m^-2提升到了3597.6 cd·m^-2,器件效率从1.44 cd·A-1提升到了3.15 cd·A-1,发光峰只有来自DSA-ph的发光。采用TADF激基复合物主体的方法有潜力实现溶液法制备的高效蓝色荧光OLEDs。     

对NFDA1和芘荧光猝灭性质的比较研究

对Bei和芘在电子给体化合物,N,N－二甲苯胺（DMA）和电子受体化合物对苯二甲酸二甲酯（DMTP）作用下的荧光猝灭进行了研究。结果表明芘与DMA和DMTP在室温下均可形成激基化合物（exciplex),而Ben仅仅与DMA形成exciplex。荧光猝灭的数据符合Stern-Volmer方程：F0／F＝1＋KSV[Q],芘的Stern-Volmer常数KSV大于Bei.Bei和芘在荧光猝灭方面的差别是由于Bei分子并不是一个典型的大共轭体系,分子的共平面性不如芘那样典型。     

Spectroscopic characterization of the fluorobenzene/DEMA tracer system for laser-induced exciplex fluorescence for the quantitative study of evaporating fuel sprays

Quantitative analysis of laser-induced exciplex fluorescence (LIEF) requires knowledge of the spectral characteristics of all the involved substances. The temperature dependence of the ratio of exciplex and monomer in the liquid phase as well as the temperature-dependent fluorescence intensity from monomers in the gas phase must be known when quantifying signals and correcting for cross talk between liquid and vapor phase. In this work we present an extensive characterization of the fluorescence of the fluorobenzene/diethyl-methyl-amine (DEMA)/n-hexane exciplex system. We use a mixture of 2% fluorobenzene, 9% DEMA, and 89% n-hexane, which was tested before for its coevaporative behavior. The temperature dependent fluorescence of the liquid exciplex was studied in a thin layer cell with UV-light (266 nm) excitation. Cross talk of a known combination of bandpass filters was quantified for the relevant temperature range. The temperature dependence of the gas-phase absorption and fluorescence signal (fluorobenzene) was studied in a heated static cell and a heated gas stream in a nitrogen coflow, respectively. These measurements provide the background for the application of LIEF for quantitative analysis of vapor and liquid distributions in fuel sprays.     

Anomalous fluorescence properties of 4-N,N-dimethylaminobenzoic acid in polar solvents

4-N,N-Dimethylaminobenzoic acid exhibits anomalous fluorescence in polar and hydrogen-bonding solvents. The fluorescence spectra and kinetics suggest that this arises due to the formation of a ground-state dimer or higher polymer. Preliminary measurements in hexane containing small amounts of polar acetonitrile do not rule out the possibility of exciplex formation also occurring.     

Thermochromic shifts of the fluorescence spectra of 4-N,N-dimethylaminobenzonitrile in solution

From the temperature effect on the fluorescence bands of 4-N,N-dimethylaminobenzonitrile the dipole moments of the two emitting species are estimated as 5 (normal fluorescence) and 15 (anomalous fluorescence) Debye above the ground-state dipole moment. The dipole moment of the anomalous emitter does not change with solvent polarity and this emitter is therefore probably a molecular species (i.e. twisted charge-transfer state) and not a solvent-solute exciplex.     

混合发光层有机电致发光器件中的多重成分发射

以等摩尔空穴传输材料TPD和电子传输材料PBD组成结构为ITO/TPD/TPD∶PBD/PBD/Al的混合物发光层有机电致发光(EL)器件,观察到了相对于组成材料的荧光光谱红移的宽发射带。通过比较EL光谱,光致发光光谱及EL光谱分解,表明电致发光中同时包含单体发射、激基复合物和电荷对复合物的发射。激基复合物为TPD的激发态TPD*与PBD的基态相互作用形成TPD*PBD类型的复合物,电荷对复合物是带电荷的空穴传输分子(D+)的空穴和电子传输分子(A-)的电子交叉复合而形成的(D+-A-)*复合物。各激发态在电场作用下呈现不同的形成机理和复合过程,并且单体发射和激发态复合物的比例随电场而变化,导致发射光谱随电场增强而蓝移。该器件的最高亮度和最大外部量子效率分别为240 cd·(cm2)-1和0.49%。有机固态界面激基复合物或电荷对复合物的发射常出现宽的红移发射带,是调节发光颜色的有效手段。     

Exciplex liquid-phase thermometer using time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence

Pulsed photoexcitation of hydrocarbon fuels doped with organic molecules exhibits a temperature-dependent fluorescence spectrum that is used as the basis for a weakly intrusive optical thermometer. By use of pulsed excitation from a 308-nm 8-ns XeCl excimer laser with gated detection of the fluorescence emissions from doped n -heptane, we demonstrate that time-resolved measurement of the excited monomer and the redshifted excited-state complex (exciplex) fluorescence emissions can yield sub-1 degrees accuracy for temperatures ranging from 440 K to the vicinity of the critical temperature (540 K). The experiments also show that the exciplex fluorescence spectrum is pressure independent below and above supercritical pressure.

Exciplex formation and electroluminescent absorption in ultraviolet organic light-emitting diodes

We investigated the formation of exciplex and electroluminescent absorption in ultraviolet organic light-emitting diodes(UV OLEDs) using different heterojunction structures.It is found that an energy barrier of over 0.3 eV between the emissive layer(EML) and adjacent transport layer facilitates exciplex formation.The electron blocking layer effectively confines electrons in the EML,which contributes to pure UV emission and enhances efficiency.The change in EML thickness generates tunable UV emission from 376 nm to 406 nm.In addition,the UV emission excites low-energy organic function layers and produces photoluminescent emission.In UV OLED,avoiding the exciplex formation and averting light absorption can effectively improve the purity and efficiency.A maximum external quantum efficiency of 1.2%with a UV emission peak of 376 nm is realized.
