Xie F, Pang J, Centeno A, Ryan M, Riley J, Alford Net al., 2013, Nanoscale control of Ag nanostructures for plasmonic fluorescence enhancement of near-infrared dyes, Nano Research, Vol: 6, Pages: 495-510, ISSN: 1998-0124

Potential utilization of proteins for early detection and diagnosis of various diseases has drawn considerable interest in the development of protein-based detection techniques. Metal induced fluorescence enhancement offers the possibility of increasing the sensitivity of protein detection in clinical applications. We report the use of tunable plasmonic silver nanostructures for the fluorescence enhancement of a near-infrared (NIR) dye (Alexa Fluor 790). Extensive fluorescence enhancement of ∼2 orders of magnitude is obtained by the nanoscale control of the Ag nanostructure dimensions and interparticle distance. These Ag nanostructures also enhanced fluorescence from a dye with very high quantum yield (7.8 fold for Alexa Fluor 488, quantum efficiency (Qy) = 0.92). A combination of greatly enhanced excitation and an increased radiative decay rate, leading to an associated enhancement of the quantum efficiency leads to the large enhancement. These results show the potential of Ag nanostructures as metal induced fluorescence enhancement (MIFE) substrates for dyes in the NIR “biological window” as well as the visible region. Ag nanostructured arrays fabricated by colloidal lithography thus show great potential for NIR dye-based biosensing applications.

Xie F, Centeno A, Ryan MR, Riley DJ, Alford NMet al., 2013, Au nanostructures by colloidal lithography: from quenching to extensive fluorescence enhancement, J. Mater. Chem. B, Vol: 1, Pages: 536-543

Enhanced local electric fields are created by nanoparticles when pumped at wavelengths corresponding to Localised Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) modes, leading to Metal Induced Fluorescence Enhancement (MIFE). This paper describes the fluorescent enhancement due to reproducible and tuneable Au nanostructures on glass substrates fabricated over large areas by colloidal lithography. Interparticle separation, particle resonance, and the fluorescent dye properties (quantum yield and emission/excitation wavelengths) are all important factors influencing the fluorescent enhancement. A maximum fluorescence enhancement of 69 times from near infra-red (NIR) dye Alexa Fluor[registered sign] 790 was observed.

ZnO is one of the most promising materials for applications in nanotechnology due to its large band gap and high electron mobility. A large amount of work has focused on the study of nanostructured ZnO. However, two dimensional transparent compact layers are also of great interest as transparent conductive oxides in optoelectronic devices. Compact ZnO layers are usually deposited by methods which are generally costly thus significantly limiting their potential application. Electrodeposition is a low cost alternative, offering a high degree of control on the characteristics. In this work the effects of the deposition parameters on the film characteristics have been studied in order to fabricate the thinnest electrodeposited films ever reported and to tune the crystallographic orientation. Incorporation of the layer into an organic ZnO/P3HT:PCBM solar cell is used to demonstrate how a careful control of the orientation can dramatically improve the photovoltaic device efficiency.

Electrodeposition of highly crystalline ZnO nanostructures directly onto copper phthalocyanine and pentacene thin films, from aqueous solutions containing zinc nitrate and dissolved oxygen, has been successfully demonstrated for the first time using a two-step electrochemical deposition process. Importantly, surface activation of the molecular thin film substrates by depositing a thin layer of ZnO nanoparticles at high cathodic overpotentials prior to film growth was found to be crucial for achieving a dense coverage of ZnO nanostructures with uniform morphology. The mechanism for ZnO deposition via electroreduction of hydroxide precursor species (oxygen and NO3– ions) at the organic-electrolyte interface was shown to be analogous to that reported for conventional inorganic and metal electrodes. Comparison of cathodic current density-time curves, measured during deposition, with film orientation and morphology revealed that the cathodic current density and number of nucleation sites are key factors in determining the characteristics of ZnO film growth on organic substrates. Significantly, the CuPc and pentacene films are not damaged or degraded during this process.

A substantial increase in device performance and operational stability in solution processed inverted bulk heterojunction (BHJ) organic photovoltaic devices (OPV) is demonstrated by introducing a zinc oxide (ZnO) interlayer between the electron collecting bottom electrode and the photoactive blend of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM). The structure and morphology of the dense, planar ZnO layers were controlled either by electro-deposition or spray pyrolysis techniques. Metal oxide sandwich OPV devices based on the photoactive blend on an electro-deposited ZnO interlayer with a (100) preferential crystal orientation, and using a tungsten oxide (WOx) interlayer on the opposite electrode, resulted in a remarkable increase in power conversion efficiency with a value of 4.91% under AM1.5 illumination and an external quantum efficiency of 74%. Electro-deposition of the ZnO at low temperature proved to be the most promising method for forming the ZnO interlayers, allowing the highest control of film structure and morphology, as well as leading to significantly improved device efficiency and stability.
