Surface state analysis of photobrightening in CdSe nanocrystal thin films
Article Abstract:
The changes in surface state of tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (TOPO) capped CdSe nanocrystals before and after the irradiation of blue light by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) is reported. The change in adsorption state of TOPO such as the TOPO-Se complex and TOPO dimer during the illumination is deeply correlated with photobritening.

Covalent assembly of stilbene-based monolayers: Factors controlling molecular interactions
Article Abstract:
A new series of stilbene-based chromophores were used to prepare structurally related siloxane-based monolayers in order to determine the factors controlling the intermolecular chromophore-chromophore interactions in the solid state. The covalently bound monolayers exhibited a relatively high concentration of surface-bound chromophores, which were restricted in their orientation freedom.
