Photophysical studies in
solutions, gels, films and other environments. The interaction of UV-visible and IR
radiation with matter has been studied in solutions, gels, films and other
pure, mixed or nanocomposite environments. Studies extend on molecular and
macromolecular species, complexes, atoms and semiconductor nanoparticles. Recent works include studies on lasing and
amplified spontaneous emission [2-4,6,7,23,36,45,61,68,70,72,78-82,86,89,90,92-97,99-102,104,107,110-114,117,119-121,124,125,127,132,134-136].
Use
of organic templates for growing semiconductor nanoparticles
for photophysical and photochemical
applications. Studies have been focused on the formation of the II-VI family semiconductor nanoparticles (e.g. CdS) as well as metal oxides (e.g. TiO2). We have exploited surfactant and polymer
self-assembly to make isolated nanoparticles as well as mesoporous
matrices and thin films [29-31,37,67,74,85,87,103,105,108,118,122,126131].
Study
of nanocomposite organic/inorganic materials and their applications. Synthesis of
materials by the sol-gel route, their characterization and the study of some of
their applications has been realized for nanocomposite
organic/inorganic matrices and thin films.
Such materials are used as hosts of photophysically acting molecules or semiconductors, as electrolyte supports in photoelectrochemical cells, as templates for the controlled
growth of semiconductor photocatalysts etc [56,60,61,67,68,74,82,85-87,89,93,95,97,99,102,105,108,110,112,114,115,121-123,125,127-135].
Colloids
and Surfaces The laboratory studies molecular
self organization in solution and
gels by employing, mainly, fluorescence probing and other
assisting techniques. Studies carried so
far out treat micelles, microemulsions, reverse micelles, polymer surfactant interaction, block copolymers, gels, lipid vesicles,
biological macromolecules and biological membranes [1-28, 32-35, 39-44, 46, 48-55, 57-59,
63-66,69,71,75-77,83,84,88,91,98,106,109,116]
Models for analyses of fluorescence probing data have also been constructed in our laboratory [32-35,38-44,46-48,50,51,53,58,59,62,64,73,110,133].
Photoluminescence
and Electroluminescence of
organic ligand-lanthanide complexes. Complexes between lanthanide ions and
organic ligands have been studied in solution and in nanocomposite organic/inorganic materials, both in bulk and in thin films. A recent activity is the study of
electroluminescent cells based on these
complexes [90,96,97,99,101,113,117,125,127,134.136]
Dye-sensitized
photoelectrochemical cells. In our laboratory we have made
dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical cells exclusively
composed of solid materials. They are
based on TiO2 nanostructured films, a dye sensitizer for absorption of visible
radiation and a nanocomposite
organic/inorganic gel electrolyte. Photovoltaic prototypes actually have an IPCE of 100% and an overall efficiency of 5% [81,108,118,123,128-131,133].
Mesoporous TiO2 films used
for photocatalytic degradation of adsorbed dyes. This is a recent activity
aiming at the characterization of nanostructured
oxide semiconductors as photocatalytic agents for air purification using solar
radiation [85,122]
