Vibronic structures in the visible luminescence of silica nanoparticles
2014
Time resolved photoluminescence investigation in air and in vacuum atmosphere of the visible luminescence related to silica surface defects is here reported. Two contributions can be singled out: one, observed both in air and in vacuum, is the well-known blue band, peaked around 2.8 eV decaying in ∼5 ns; the other, only observed in vacuum, is a structured emission in the violet range characterized by two vibronic progressions spaced 1370 cm−1 and 360 cm−1 decaying in ∼100 ns. In contrast with previous attribution, the well distinguishable spectroscopic properties together with the observation of the effects induced by the interaction with nitrogen allow to state that the emission bands orig…
Nature of the blue luminescence bands in PbWO4
1997
Abstract The photoluminescence spectrum of PbWO 4 is composed of blue and green bands, previously attributed to the regular WO 4 group and to the defect-related WO 3 group, respectively. Untill now only green emission was observed in the thermostimulated luminescence (TSL) above 77 K. Investigation of the TSL spectra starting from 20 K indicates that the blue band, being definitely present at least in the 28 K TSL peak, is also due to recombination emission at defect sites.
Defect-related visible luminescence of silica nanoparticles
2013
The high photon emissivity in the visible spectral range is one of the most relevant phenomena emerging from the reduction of silica down to nanoscale; hence it is promising for the development of optical nanotechnologies (down converter, probes, display). It is well accepted that the origin of this luminescence is related to the high specific surface (~100 m2/g) that favors the formation of optically active defects at the nanosilica surface. With the aim to clarify the role of specific luminescent defects, here we report a detailed study of spectral and decay features by time-resolved photoluminescence spectra under a visible-UV tunable laser excitation. Our study is carried out on differe…
A Compilation of Protocols to Visualize Enzymes Following Electrophoretic Separation
1994
The following tables supply protocols for the electrophoretic separation as well as for the succeeding visualization of enzymes. Separation systems and enzyme visualization procedures are adjusted to each other.
