Quasiparticle dynamics across the full Brillouin zone of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ traced with ultrafast time and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy
摘要: A hallmark in the cuprate family of high-temperature superconductors is the nodal-antinodal dichotomy. In this regard, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) has proven especially powerful, providing band structure information directly in energy-momentum space. Time-resolved ARPES (trARPES) holds great promise of adding ultrafast temporal information, in an attempt to identify different interaction channels in the time domain. Previous studies of the cuprates using trARPES were handicapped by the low probing energy, which significantly limits the accessible momentum space. Using 20.15 eV, 12 fs pulses, we show for the first time the evolution of quasiparticles in the antinodal region of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+d and demonstrate that non-monotonic relaxation dynamics dominates above a certain fluence threshold. The dynamics is heavily influenced by transient modification of the electron-phonon interaction and phase space restrictions, in stark contrast to the monotonic relaxation in the nodal and off-nodal regions.

Enhanced Quenching Effect of Neonicotinoid Pesticides on Time-Resolved Terbium Luminescence in Presence of Surfactants
摘要: A luminescence analytical method for the quantification of neonicotinoid pesticides (acetamiprid, clothianidin, dinotefuran, imidacloprid, nitenpyram, thiacloprid, and thiamethoxam) in water samples is proposed. The method is based on the quenching effect that these analytes produce on the time-resolved luminescence signal of terbium ions (excitation/emission wavelengths of 256/545 nm/nm). An enhancement on the analytical signal is observed when surfactants are used in the system. The use of a 0.01 mol·L?1 sodium dodecyl sulfate produced approximately a 30% increase in the sensitivity of the method. Under the optimum conditions, the method presented detection limits between 0.03 and 0.23 μg·mL?1. Interference studies were performed for ions commonly present in waters, observing no interferences. In addition, recovery experiments were performed in different waters, well, spring, and swamp, observing recovery yields close to 100%, with relative standard deviations lower than 4% in all cases. No sample treatment except a filtration step was required. Hence, this method may represent an alternative to other existing methods for the quick and simple analysis of these ubiquitous insecticides in environmental waters.

Intrinsic and Extrinsic Heavy Atom Effect on the Multifaceted Emissive Behavior of Cyclic Triimidazole
摘要: Since heavy halogen atoms can be used to tune the emissive properties of organic luminogens, the understanding of their role in the photophysics is fundamental for materials engineering. Here, the extrinsic and intrinsic heavy atom effects on the photophysics of organic crystals are separately evaluated by comparing cyclic triimidazole (TT) with its mono-iodo derivative (TTI) and its cocrystal with diiodotetrafluorobenzene (TTCo). Crystals of TT show room temperature ultralong phosphorescence (RTUP) originated from H-aggregation. TTI and TTCo display two additional long lived components whose origin is elucidated through single crystal X-ray and DFT-TDDFT studies. The results highlight the different effects of the I atom on the three phosphorescent emissions. Intrinsic heavy atom effects play a major role on molecular phosphorescence which is displayed at RT only for TTI. H-aggregate RTUP and the I···N XB induced phosphorescences on the other side depend only on packing features.

Time-resolved photoluminescence of pH-sensitive carbon dots
摘要: Time-resolved photoluminescence emission were performed to study the ? 100 ps time-scale photophysics of water soluble carbon dots (CDs) dispersed in different pH solutions. Excitation of the core and high-energy edge states at excitation wavelengths λex £ 350 nm produce hole-electron excitonic charge-carriers but do not yield any photoluminescence emission, implying efficient non-radiative recombination mechanisms for the charge-carriers. Using λex ~ 375 nm, surface fluorophores as well as low-lying edge-states are excited, producing emission over a broad range. However, the emission characteristics vary strongly depending on the pH condition and the choice of excitation wavelength. In particular, the edge state emission is abruptly extinguished at pH ≥ 5, which also marks the onset of deprotonation of surface-bound -COOH groups of the CDs, indicating that the -COO- anionic centers promote quenching of edge-state emission. Using λex ~ 450 nm, only the surface fluorophores are excited. The deprotonation of phenolic -OH group at pH>9 causes a sharp red-shift in the emission spectra at all excitation wavelengths. The pH-sensitive emission behavior of the CDs enable them to serve as optical pH sensors.

Effective quenching and excited-state relaxation of a Cu(I) photosensitizer addressed by time-resolved spectroscopy and TDDFT calculations
摘要: Homogenous photocatalytic systems based on copper photosensitizers are promising candidates for noble metal free approaches in solar hydrogen generation. To improve their performance, a detailed understanding of the individual steps is needed. Here, we study the interaction of a heteroleptic copper (I) photosensitizer with an iron catalyst by time-resolved spectroscopy and ab initio calculations. The catalyst leads to rather efficient quenching of the 3MLCT state of the copper complex, with a bimolecular rate being about three times smaller than the collision rate. Using control experiments with methyl viologen, an appearing absorption band is assigned to the oxidized copper complex demonstrating that an electron transfer from the sensitizer to the iron catalyst occurs and the system reacts along an oxidative pathway. However, only about 30% of the quenching events result in an electron transfer while the other 70% experience deactivation indicating that the photocatalytic performance might suffer from geminate recombination.

Cell-Penetrating Peptides Transport Noncovalently Linked Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Nanoparticles for Time-Resolved Luminescence Imaging
摘要: Luminescent probes and nanoparticles (NPs) with long excited state lifetimes are essential for time-resolved biological imaging. Generally, cell membranes are physiological barriers that could prevent the uptake of many unnatural compounds. It is still a big challenge to prepare biocompatible imaging agents with high cytomembrane permeability, especially for nonmetallic NPs with long-lived luminescence. Herein, an amphiphilic cell-penetrating peptide, F6G6(rR)3R2, was designed to transport hydrophobic fluorophores across cellular barriers. Three classical thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) molecules, 4CzIPN, NAI-DPAC, and BTZ-DMAC, could self-assemble into well-dispersed NPs with F6G6(rR)3R2 in aqueous solution. These NPs showed low cytotoxicity and could penetrate membranes easily. Moreover, long-lived TADF enabled them to be used in time-resolved luminescence imaging in oxygenic environments. These findings greatly expanded the applications of cell-penetrating peptides for delivery of molecules and NPs by only noncovalent interactions, which were more flexible and easier than covalent modifications.

Perturbation approach for computing frequency- and time-resolved photon correlation functions
摘要: We propose an alternative formulation of the sensor method presented in Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 183601 (2012) for the calculation of frequency-?ltered and time-resolved photon correlations. Our approach is based on an algebraic expansion of the joint steady state of quantum emitter and sensors with respect to the emitter-sensor coupling parameter (cid:2). This allows us to express photon correlations in terms of the open quantum dynamics of the emitting system only and ensures that computation of correlations are independent on the choice of a small value of (cid:2). Moreover, using time-dependent perturbation theory, we are able to express the frequency- and time-resolved second-order photon correlation as the addition of three components, each of which gives insight into the physical processes dominating the correlation at different time scales. We consider a bioinspired vibronic dimer model to illustrate the agreement between the original formulation and our approach.

Development of a nanoscale-based optical chemical sensor for the detection of NO radical
摘要: Nitric oxide is one of the most important biochemical parameters in biological processes; it is also known as carcinogenic. There is need for the design of stable and durable solid phase nitric oxide sensors. In this study, we immobilized the nitric oxide sensitive molecules pyrene, tris(2,2’-bipyrdyl)dichlororuthenium(II) hexahydrate (Ru(bipy) 2+ 3 ) , and magnesium phthalocyanine (Mg-Pc) for the first time in polymeric or glassy matrices. We applied silver nanoparticles and ionic liquids in the fabrication process of polymeric electrospun fibers and thin films. We compared their NO sensitivity in micelle solutions that mimic the cell medium by both steady state and lifetime-based fluorescence measurements. Among the tested dyes, the pyrene exhibited the highest response for radicalic NO. The Mg-Pc dye followed pyrene in terms of sensitivity and exhibited increasing fluorescence intensity and lifetime-based response. Lifetime-based response is advantageous and selective as it is not affected by source variations, photo-bleaching, or leaching effects. Another advantage of Mg-Pc dye is that it is not poisonous for organic systems. Presence of the ionic liquid enhanced the sensor response in all of the test moieties. The obtained limit of detection values for pyrene, Ru(bipy) 2+ and Mg-Pc dyes were 0.15 (cid:22) M, 1.54 (cid:22) M, and 0.78 (cid:22) M, respectively.

Simultaneous Dual-mode Emission and Tunable Multicolor in the Time Domain from Lanthanide-doped Core-shell Microcrystals
摘要: The dual-mode emission and multicolor outputs in the time domain from core-shell microcrystals are presented. The core-shell microcrystals, with NaYF4:Yb/Er as the core and NaYF4:Ce/Tb/Eu as the shell, were successfully fabricated by employing the hydrothermal method, which con?nes the activator ions into a separate region and minimizes the effect of surface quenching. The material is capable of both upconversion and downshifting emission, and their multicolor outputs in response to 980 nm near-infrared (NIR) excitation laser and 252 nm, and 395 nm ultraviolet (UV) excitation light have been investigated. Furthermore, the tunable color emissions by controlling the Tb3+-Eu3+ ratio in shells and the energy transfer of Ce3+→Tb3+→Eu3+ were discussed in details. In addition, color tuning of core-shell-structured microrods from green to red region in the time domain could be obtained by setting suitable delay time. Due to downshifting multicolor outputs (time-resolved and pump-wavelength-induced downshifting) coupled with the upconversion mode, the core-shell microrods can be potentially applied to displays and high-level security.

Simulating Fluorescence Detected Two-Dimensional Electronic Spectroscopy of Multi-Chromophoric Systems
摘要: We present a theory for modeling fluorescence detected two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy of multichromophoric systems. The theory is tested by comparison of the predicted spectra of the light-harvesting complex LH2 with experimental data. A qualitative explanation of the strong cross-peaks as compared to conventional two-dimensional electronic spectra is given. The strong cross-peaks are attributed to the clean ground state signal that is revealed when the annihilation of exciton pairs created on the same LH2 complex cancels oppositely-signed signals from the doubly-excited state. This annihilation process occurs much faster than the non-radiative relaxation. Furthermore, the lineshape difference is attributed to slow dynamics, exciton delocalization within the bands and intraband exciton-exciton annihilation. This is in line with existing theories presented for model systems. We further propose the use of time-resolved fluorescence detected two-dimensional spectroscopy to study state resolved exciton-exciton annihilation.
