  • a precise boltzmann distribution law for the Fluorescence Intensity ratio of two thermally coupled levels
    Applied Physics Letters, 2016
    Co-Authors: Feng Qin, Zhiguo Zhang, Wenwu Cao, Hua Zhao, Wei Cai
    Abstract:

    Noncontact monitoring temperature is very important in modern medicine, science, and technologies. The Fluorescence Intensity ratio (FIR) technique based on the Boltzmann distribution law exhibits excellent application potential, but the observed FIR deviates from the Boltzmann distribution law in the low temperature range. We propose a Fluorescence Intensity ratio relation FIR* = ηFIR by introducing a quantity η representing thermal population degree, which can be obtained from measured Fluorescence decay curves of the upper emitting level. Using Eu3+ as an example, the method is confirmed that the deviated FIR is able to be corrected and return to follow the Boltzmann law.

  • Fluorescence Intensity ratio method for temperature sensing
    Optics letters, 2015
    Co-Authors: Yuan Zhou, Feng Qin, Yangdong Zheng, Zhiguo Zhang, Wenwu Cao
    Abstract:

    A thermometry method based on the ratio between the valley Intensity formed by Fluorescence peak overlap and the peak Fluorescence Intensity has been developed. Excited by a 405 nm laser, the valley to peak ratio (VPR) of the emissions originating from 5D0 to 7F2 Stark sublevels in Eu3+-doped CaWO4 shows a monotonic change with temperature. Spectrum analysis indicates that this monotonic increase is caused by the homogeneous broadening of the spectral lines as the temperature increases. The relative sensitivity S(r) is in the magnitude of 10(-4)  K(-1) in the experimental temperature range of 303-573 K.

  • dependence of Fluorescence Intensity on the spectral overlap between fluorophores and plasmon resonant single silver nanoparticles
    Nano Letters, 2007
    Co-Authors: Yeechi Chen, Keiko Munechika, David S Ginger
    Abstract:

    We investigate the Fluorescence from dyes coupled to individual DNA-functionalized metal nanoparticles. We use single-particle darkfield scattering and Fluorescence microscopy to correlate the Fluorescence Intensity of the dyes with the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectra of the individual metal nanoparticles to which they are attached. For each of three different dyes, we observe a strong correlation between the Fluorescence Intensity of the dye and the degree of spectral overlap with the plasmon resonance of the nanoparticle. On average, we observe the brightest Fluorescence from dyes attached to metal nanoparticles that have a LSPR scattering peak ∼40−120 meV higher in energy than the emission peak of the fluorophore. These results should prove useful for understanding and optimizing metal-enhanced Fluorescence.
