Optical properties of ZnO nanoparticles capped with polymers were investigated. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) were used as capping reagents. ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by the sol-gel method. Fluorescence and absorption spectra were measured. When we varied the timing of the addition of the polymer to the ZnO nanoparticle solution, the optical properties were ...

this work describes the optical and structure properties of nickel sulfide and cobalt sulfide nanoparticles in zsm-5 zeolite. the samples were obtained by sulfidation of the ni2+ and co2+ ion-exchange zsm-5 zeolites in a na2s solution at room temperature. the optical properties of the samples were studied by uv-visible spectroscopy. their crystalline structure and morphology were studied by x-r...

The structure-property characteristics of a series of newly synthesized intramolecular chargetransfer (ICT) compounds, single-branch monomer with triphenylmethane as electron donor and 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole as acceptor, the corresponding two-branch dimer and threebranch trimer, have been investigated by means of steady-state and femtosecond timeresolved stimulated emission fluorescence depleti...

Films of pseudoisocyanine iodide in a cellulose acetate matrix were prepared by spin coating and characterized by UV/Vis absorption and fluorescence spectroscopies. The comparison with self-supported films of the same dye enabled analysing the role of the matrix in the aggregation of pseudoisocyanine iodide ([PIC]I). It was proved that cellulose acetate is a suitable support for [PIC]I J-aggreg...

Excited states of two 7-aminocoumarin derivatives, coumarin 120 (7-amino-4-methylcoumarin) and coumarin 151 (7-amino-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin), were investigated using generalized multiconfigurational quasidegenerate perturbation theory (GMC-QDPT), multiconfigurational quasidegenerate perturbation theory (MC-QDPT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) with the B3LYP and CAM-B3LY...

Action spectra for the assimilation of nitrate and nitrite have been obtained for several blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) with different accessory pigment composition. The action spectra for both nitrate and nitrite utilization by nitrate-grown Anacystis nidulans L-1402-1 cells exhibited a clear peak at about 620 nanometers, corresponding to photosystem II (PSII) C-phycocyanin absorption, the ...

The group of 2D materials contains almost all the elements of the periodic table. In contrast to the graphene sheet, they are abundant, this creates a variety of electronic properties including metals, semimetals, insulators and semiconductors. Band gaps of these materials are direct or indirect by ranging from ultraviolet to infrared, for this reason, have received much attention for nanoelect...
