Luminescence spectra of silver-containing oxyfluoride glasses have been investigated in the excitation spectral range of 360–480 nm. Analysis of the luminescence spectra shows that silver in oxyfluoride glasses that contain no strong reducers and were subjected to heat treatment affecting redox processes exists in the form of neutral atoms and neutral molecular Ag2, Ag3, and Ag4 clusters. 相似文献
A phenomenological study of a specific radical ion mechanism of formation of metastable products is presented. Energy level diagrams of fullerene C60, tetramethylbenzidine, perylene, and radical ion pairs in toluene and benzonitrile are constructed. The possibility for obtaining fast optical switching and limiting in solutions of C60 fullerene, tetramethylbenzidine, and perylene in toluene is analyzed. 相似文献
An analysis is made of the advantages of impurity liquid-crystal systems that are associated with the existence of the excitonic mechanism of electronic excitation energy transfer in them. Using the two-photon absorption in such systems, one can substantially expand the dynamic range of optical limitation. 相似文献
For the first time, direct experimental evidence of a new mechanism for the quenching of fluorescence of organic ligands (L) in complex compounds with lanthanide ions (Ln3+) is obtained. By analogy with the mechanism of luminescence quenching upon pair interactions of Ln3+ ions in inorganic systems, this mechanism is called the cross-relaxation mechanism. The experiments are performed with complexes of Tb3+ with dianions of halogen-substituted fluoresceins (HSFs): 4,5-dibromo-and 4,5-diiodofluorescein, eosin B, eosin, erythrosin, and Rose Bengal in dimethyl sulfoxide. In accordance with this mechanism—exchange energy transfer, L2?(*S1), Tb3+(7F6)→L2?(T1), Tb3+(7F5, 4), allowed by the spin selection rules—an increase in the quantum yield of formation of the triplet state (ΦT) of a ligand L2? and a decrease in the quantum yield of fluorescence (Φfl) are found to take place upon complexation. The efficiency of this process amounts to ~1 in accordance with the equality Φfl+ΦT=1, valid for solutions of HSFs. The possibility of other processes leading to a similar effect, specifically, recharging of the system (as for complexes of HSFs with Eu3+ and 3+) is considered. An example of inductive resonance interactions in complexes of HSFs with Pr3+ is given. The manifestation of equilibrium between outer-sphere and inner-sphere complexes in the photophysics of complexes of metals with HSFs is discussed.
We have studied the absorption and fluorescent properties of complexes formed by compounds of anthracene-9-carboxylic acid with metal cations in dimethyl sulfoxide and ethanol. The composition and stability of these complexes has been determined. It is shown that when lanthanide ions are added (Ln3+) 21 complexes are formed predominantly, i.e., RCOO– Ln3+–OOCR, while with Cd2+ the complexes are mainly 11, i.e., RCOO– Cd2+. We have considered the principal mechanisms for the deactivation of excitation in complexes based on the RE ions (dipole-dipole energy transfer and electron transfer). The interactions were shown to be inner-sphere in character in the ion triplets, and outer-sphere in the ion pairs. The metal-ligand distance in the 21 complexes is estimated to be 0.5–0.6 nm.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Éksperimental'naya Khimiya, Vol. 25, No. 6, pp. 673–682, November–December, 1989.In conclusion the authors wish to thank A.

It has been shown experimentally that the thermal dissolution of silver and gold thin films in silicate glass is accompanied by the formation of a monolayer of silver and gold micro- and nanocrystals, respectively, on the surface of the glass. These processes occur at temperatures well below the melting temperature of the metal. Microcrystals are formed predominantly at the edges of islands of the metal film, where there is a sufficient amount of the material for their growth. Silver and gold nanocrystals are formed in the case when atoms of the metal dissolved in the glass repeatedly emerge on the glass surface. Silver and gold dissolved in the glass exist not only in the form of atoms and ions but also in the form of charged and neutral molecular clusters.
The luminescence decay times τlum of the complexes of the ions Tb(III), Eu(III), Sm(III), Dy(III), and Yb(III) with dipicolinic acid (DPA) dissolved in protonated and deuterated water, methanol, and dimethyl sulfoxide are measured. The values of τlum for crystals H3[Ln(DPA)3]·nH2O and their aqueous solutions coincide, which points to the identity of the environment in the nearest spheres of an ion in both cases. A comparison of τlum of solutions of the complexes in H2O and D2O, as well as in CH3OH, CH3OD, CD3OD, DMSO-h6, and DMSO-d6 shows that the molecular groups in the second and third spheres of an ion, exhibiting high-frequency vibrations, have a noticeable effect on the rate constants of nonradiative transitions knr in the ion. From this comparison, some inferences on the structure of the solvate shell of the Ln(DPA)33? complexes in the solvents used are made. The contributions to knr of Eu(III), Tb(III), Sm(III), Dy(III), Nd(III), and Yb(III) made by OH and CH groups located at different distances from the ion are estimated. It is demonstrated that the dependence of knr on the distance to the OH and CH groups is steeper for the Eu(III) and Tb(III) ions than for the remaining ions. 相似文献
