Incorporation of luminescent nanometric films in photonic crystals and devices for the development of photonic sensors

摘要: Dye molecules embedded in different matrices the form of thin films are basis specific materials used for laser cavities, optical filters, gas sensors, etc. In present communication we discuss a new methodology based on remote microwave plasma assisted deposition dye containing that circumvent above mentioned problems. It permits tailored synthesis optically active nanometric which as fluorescence emitters (i.e., coloured and fluorescent films). The principle this procedure is partial polymerization evaporated over substrate while exposed to Ar plasma. As result process polymeric film produced one step where some keep intact their activity (although eventually, response can be slightly modified by matrix effects). This has been recently novel nanocomposites non-aggregated dyes maximize emission fabrication NO2 sensing nanocomposites. To illustrate possibilities technique here results molecules, perylene dyes, several xanthene oxazine derivative cationic typically gain media tuneable dyes. luminescent, properties these will presented. These layers being developed photonic sensor devices, filters chips (PHODYE EU Project). due full compatibility synthetic with integrated microelectronic optoelectronic technology. devices integrating demonstrated. Especial attention paid recent about incorporation luminescent crystals conformal growth planar defects within artificial opals.
